Rigor, with receipts.Make Learning Visible When AI Is in the Loop.

ProvenanceAI tracks the full arc of AI-assisted work, from sources and prompts to drafts and revisions, so instructors can assess growth and students can show how they used AI well.

Not a plagiarism tool. A growth engine.

The Framework

The ProvenanceAI Path

ProvenanceAI doesn't measure what students produce. It measures the distance they travel.

The ProvenanceAI Path automatically captures the full arc of AI-assisted work:
source → prompt → draft → revision → MVP.

Instead of detecting whether students used AI, we show how they used it well—making growth visible, coachable, and fair.

Sources, Research & Attribution

Gather sources and context. Make your starting point explicit.

Prompt Engineering

Use AI as a thinking partner—guided by goals, constraints, and success criteria.

First Draft

Stamp a First Draft so improvement is measurable, not assumed.

Review & Iterate

Refine the prompt. Challenge the output. Expand scope. Improve quality.

Maximum Value Prototype

Deliver the Maximum Value Prototype: polished, applied, and fully traceable.

AI Assessment Readiness Diagnostic for Universities

Take a short survey to benchmark your institution's AI strategy posture, implementation readiness, budget expectations, and assessment priorities.

AI can generate output. ProvenanceAI measures development.

Three Distances We Measure

Knowledge is everywhere now. What matters is growth:
uniquely human contributions, transferrable AI skills, and enduring habits of character.

HD

Human Distance

How far did you push beyond the machine?

  • Original thinking that isn’t “just the model”
  • Synthesis across sources and ideas
  • Strong execution (rubric-aligned)
  • Deep iteration (quality gain, not word count)
LD

Leverage Distance

How effectively did you steer the AI?

  • Clear prompts with constraints + success tests
  • Smart refinement loops (not random retries)
  • Verification behavior (challenge weak outputs)
  • Transformation ratio (your edits vs. raw text)
WB

Well-Being

Is your technology relationship sustainable?

  • Flow vs. overwhelm (cognitive load)
  • Agency: steering vs. submitting
  • Consistency, resilience, recovery
  • Time-to-quality efficiency (prevent burnout)

Student View

Show Your Work. Show Your Growth.

Students see exactly what counts: reflection, revision, and measurable improvement.
ProvenanceAI makes the learning process visible—so growth earns credit, not just output.

  • Real-time Human Distance signals
  • Automatic capture of prompts + iterations
  • A visual trail from Start → MVP
  • Proof of learning, not just polished products

“In a future of generative content, it's not about proving you didn't use AI. It's about showing how you used it well.”

Instructor View

Grade the Thinking.

Instructors see the full arc of AI-assisted work: where students challenged the AI,
added original insight, and moved beyond the model's first response.

  • Diff view: exact human edits, clearly mapped
  • One-click integrity review (evidence, not suspicion)
  • Timeline playback: how the idea evolved
  • Reduce grading time; increase feedback quality

ProvenanceAI measures the distance students travel—not just what they produce.

Our DNA

Designing for Possibility, Not Judgment

ProvenanceAI is built on the principles of Design Thinking and Edward de Bono's concept of EBNA (Excellent, But Not Enough).

We believe the MVP isn't just a product stage—it's a philosophy: Maximum Value Possibility. In an age where both general and specialized knowledge is becoming a commodity, learning value comes from the human journey, not the destination.

Why ProvenanceAI Exists

Higher education faces a value crisis. As knowledge becomes a commodity, the old output metrics are collapsing. We're shifting the measurement from final output to human growth.

What We’re Building

Chain-of-Custody: Blockchain-inspired tracking for learning artifacts.
ProvenanceAI Path: Curated AI Pedagogy.
Distance Metrics: Human Distance, Leverage Distance, Well-Being.

In Development

ScholarFlow: Output translator for academic integrity.
Critias – Humanities Incubator: Consulting arm.
SocratesXR: Immersive learning experiences.
