Assess Technologies helps organizations adopt artificial intelligence responsibly and profitably. Founder Jeremy Pope built the ed-tech industry’s first AI essay grader and has shipped production generative-AI features on OpenAI, Anthropic, and AWS Bedrock. We help you separate hype from real value, identify high-ROI use cases, manage data privacy and risk, and actually ship — not just talk about AI.
How we help you adopt AI
- AI opportunity assessment — find the use cases that will actually save time or money in your organization.
- Responsible adoption — data privacy, security, and governance so AI doesn’t create new risks.
- Build vs. buy guidance — when to use off-the-shelf tools versus custom development.
- Hands-on implementation — from a leader who has shipped real, revenue-generating AI features, not slideware.
- Team enablement — practical training so your staff use AI tools well and safely.
Why Assess Technologies for AI
Most “AI consultants” have never shipped a production AI product. Jeremy has — including the ed-tech industry’s first AI essay grader (2023), AI writing feedback, and step-by-step AI math grading. That hands-on experience means practical advice grounded in what actually works, scales, and stays within budget.
Frequently asked questions
How should a small organization start using AI safely?
Start with one or two high-value, low-risk use cases — like drafting routine documents or summarizing information — using established tools, with clear rules about what data can and can’t be shared. Assess Technologies helps you pick the right starting points, set guardrails for privacy and accuracy, and expand from there.
Is our data safe with AI tools?
It depends on the tool and how it’s configured. Some services train on your inputs; others don’t. We help you choose tools and settings that protect sensitive and regulated data (including student data under FERPA/COPPA) and put clear usage policies in place.
Do we need custom AI, or are off-the-shelf tools enough?
For most organizations, off-the-shelf tools cover the majority of value at far lower cost and risk. Custom AI makes sense when it’s core to your product or a real competitive advantage. We help you make that call objectively rather than chasing hype.
