YELE · a world of its own


Capabilities — not features

Five rooms in one building.

YELE isn't a feature list. It is five distinct learning rooms. Each one solves one specific problem. Together they are the part of school you used to never see.

01 · The Study Room

Where the student opens the book.

Chunked reading. YELA, the patient teacher, is silent until the student speaks. The student presses Recall, the book hides, and they write a summary from memory. The AI grader marks against a per-curriculum rubric — BAC philo, GCE A-Level, WASSCE biology, IB English — each one its own examiner persona, not a generic chatbot.

02 · The Workspace

Where the student does the work.

Monaco editor with real Python and JS execution for code subjects. KaTeX board for maths, marked step by step. Structured rubric editor for essays — BAC philo's problématique → thèse → antithèse → synthèse is on screen while she writes, the grader expects it.

03 · The Memory Engine

Where what was learned stays.

SM-2 spaced repetition. Cepeda expanding intervals. Every highlight, every wrong quiz answer, every weak summary becomes a flashcard scheduled for tomorrow, three days later, a week later. Daily 5-minute interleaved review — students hate it, retention loves it.

04 · The Exam Simulator

Where the BAC stops being scary.

Real past papers from real boards. Timed. Server-true clock — closing the tab does NOT pause the timer. AI-graded against the marking scheme, with a diff showing exactly what was missed. Re-attempts are first-class — the student can re-do the same paper next week and the gradebook tracks both scores.

05 · The Honesty Mirror

Where parents see outcomes, not surveillance.

Three views of the same data. Student sees everything. Parent sees a weekly outcome digest — mastery delta, mock-exam trend, summary improvement curve. NOT real-time activity. NOT chat transcripts. Teacher sees class compliance on units they assigned. The student picks per subject what the parent can see.

A week in the life

The 16-year-old preparing the BAC, Yaoundé.

5 GB monthly bundle. Power out half the evenings. School at 8 AM. YELE in her pocket from 19:30 to 22:00. Here's the week.

  1. Monday19:30

    Power back on. She opens YELE on a phone. Three retrieval cards from Sunday's chunk.

  2. Tuesday

    Exam week. Streak auto-pauses. 12 minutes of revision on the bus. Bundle untouched.

  3. Wednesday21:00

    Integration by parts. YELA does NOT give the answer. Step by step, hint by hint, she works it out.

  4. Thursday20:15

    First mock paper. 11/20. The diff shows: 4 marks lost on units, 3 on a sign error. Tomorrow she practises those.

  5. Friday19:40

    Father opens his parent app. Mastery deltas. One mock score. He sends a one-line encouragement. No surveillance.

  6. Saturday

    25-minute interleaved practice block. Three maths, two physics, two chemistry. Hates interleaving. Retention shows up next week.

  7. Sunday

    Story-game mode. A quest about Marie Curie that hides discovery-style radioactivity problems. 30 minutes feel like 10.

For schools · two ways to fund it

YELE has one cost. Schools control how it reaches them.

42 000 XAF per student per year is YELE's real cost of service — AI compute, hosting, support, content, reporting. Two ways for your school to pay it.

Tier A

Tier A · School-funded

You pay 42K XAF per student per year. You set ANY student price.

School pays YELE
42 000 XAF / student / year
School sets student price
Free · 30 K · 80 K · differentiated per cohort
School keeps margin
Whatever it sets above 42 K
Student-price floor
None — school decides

Three example scenarios

Premium prestige
80 000 XAF
+ 38 000 / student
Standard private
50 000 XAF
+ 8 000 / student
Mission-driven
0 (free for all) XAF
− 42 000 absorbed

Tier B

Tier B · Revenue-share

You pay nothing upfront. We split the margin 40 / 60.

School pays upfront

YELE recovers cost
42 000 / student paid
School sets student price
≤ 60 000 XAF / year
Margin split (above cost)
40 % YELE · 60 % school

Best fit: schools that want to launch YELE without capital risk and don't mind the 60 K student-price cap.

Cost-of-service scales proportionally across regions — Nigeria NGN, Ghana GHS, Kenya KES, South Africa ZAR, Egypt EGP, Morocco MAD, diaspora USD — with the same two-tier structure adjusted for purchasing power.

The teacher in the room when no one else is helping a student study.
