We turn people's real experiences into clear evidence, so you can make decisions with confidence.
The Vouching Diagnostic Engine is how we do it: an ongoing diagnostic relationship, not a one-off survey or a dashboard. Currently in pilot, first with schools.
No survey. No dashboard to configure.
You describe your situation in your own words: what's happening, what you've already tried, what worries you most. That's it.
In minutes, you get a small number of ranked next steps: the strongest move, the ones to avoid, and the ones worth testing first. Each one carries an honest confidence level, never a false guarantee.
A teacher describes a Sunday-afternoon task-design problem. A school leader describes a school-wide policy question. Both get an answer in the same plain language they used to ask it.
A clear next step, never a false promise
- A small number of ranked next steps: not one prescriptive answer, and not an overwhelming list
- An honest confidence level on each one
- The evidence behind each recommendation, so it holds up if someone asks you to justify it
- A growing picture over time: as you log what actually happened after acting, the evidence base grows and future recommendations sharpen
Built to work as an ongoing relationship, not a one-off report
How it works, if you want to see under the hood
Most people don't need this level of detail to trust the output. It's here for anyone who wants to interrogate the reasoning before committing.
The Engine structures what you tell it across six plain dimensions:
- Context: the environment the issue is happening in
- Stakeholders: who's affected, and who's reporting or interpreting the issue
- Trigger: the underlying pressure or problem behind the decision
- Intervention: the response being considered or already tried
- Result: what changed, or is expected to change
- Lived experience: how that result actually landed with the people involved
It compares your situation against a growing base of comparable cases, and separates what changed from how people actually felt about it, a distinction that matters, because a response can look successful on paper and still fail the people it was meant to help.
Being honest about pilot status
The Vouching Diagnostic Engine is a new tool. We're piloting it with a founding cohort of schools before any wider release, testing not just whether it works, but whether it's genuinely useful enough for people to rely on. The evidence base grows, and gets sharper, with every engagement.
Proving the Engine, one market at a time
AI in Schools is where we're proving the Engine first. The same method works anywhere a decision depends on real, lived experience rather than hard data alone: we're already testing it in other settings too.
If you're a consultant or researcher looking to use the Engine across your own client work, we'd like to hear from you.
