AWS India Private Limited today announced that ConveGenius, an Indian education technology (edtech) social enterprise, has built SwiftChat, a conversational artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot platform for government schools and low-cost private schools, on AWS. SwiftChat aims to improve learning outcomes for K-12 school students using more than 53 conversational AI chatbots that deliver personalised learning content in 13 regional languages to more than 100 million students across India using the world's leading cloud.
Government schools can create omnichannel chatbots using the SwiftChat platform, which has 124 million student profiles across 19 million devices, to deliver personalised learning, such as curated videos and read-along content, through a single AI-enabled chatbot conversation. SwiftChat also provides teacher training and data-driven decision-making for school administrators, as well as the ability to observe and meet schools' resource requirements to ensure a healthy teacher-to-student ratio.
India’s National Curriculum Framework for School Education 2023 made personalized learning a priority, to help students across the country do better at school. With AWS, ConveGenius is helping state governments in India deliver Vidya Samiksha Kendra (VSK), a centralized system at the state level to track student enrollment, participation, and learning progress.
VSK provides study materials to 9.5 million teachers at 1.5 million government-run schools in India. Since its successful pilot in Gujarat, ConveGenius' VSK toolkit, which includes multiple conversational AI chatbots on the SwiftChat platform, has been deployed in 14 Indian states, including Goa, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, and Uttarakhand. SwiftChat collects data from schools, providing the state with insights into students' learning gaps and effectiveness in areas such as reading, comprehension, and arithmetic skills, and allowing it to improve education at the school, block, and district levels.
