Purpose-Built for Academic Excellence
For Faculty
AI Figures Grounded in Primary Sources
Unlike generic chatbots, every Humy character draws on verified historical documents, speeches, and scholarly references — fostering genuine inquiry rather than surface-level Q&A.
Assignment Builder for Essays, Debates & DBQs
Create document-based questions, Socratic seminars, and essay prompts in minutes. AI-graded assessments free up faculty time while maintaining academic standards.
Custom AI Persona Builder
Upload your own primary sources and scholarly materials to create discipline-specific AI personas tailored to your syllabus and course objectives.
For Department Heads
Measurable Learning Outcomes
Track student engagement, conversation depth, and assignment completion across your department with built-in analytics and exportable reports.
Seamless LMS Integration
Integrate with Canvas, Blackboard, and Moodle. Embed Humy in course pages via iframe or share direct links and QR codes for lecture hall access.
Privacy & Compliance First
FERPA and GDPR compliant. Student data is never used for AI training. Anonymous link-based access means zero student PII is collected.
Designed for Every Humanities Department
