Frequently asked questions

How does Manati work?

Manati uses AI to provide instant, personalized feedback on student answers based on instructor provided grading criteria. Instructors define the expectations, and our system checks whether each student response meets, exceeds, or falls short of those expectations. This ensures accurate, fair, and consistent evaluation at scale.

Manati is provided as a SaaS subscription with the annual subscription price based on student enrollments (FTE) or student count (K-12) of the institution that will use the tools. We will work with you to come up with a roll-out plan that meets your needs, with pricing to match. We also offer discounts for multiple year contracts. Implementation and training fees are additional in the first year. Contact us at sales@manati.ai for any questions.

Unlike other tools, Manati.ai never assumes it "knows" the correct answer. We don't only rely on pre-trained LLM data to determine correctness. Instead, our platform uses your rubric and grading instructions to evaluate logic and alignment with learning goals. This approach prevents hallucinations and keeps you fully in control of the assessment.

The pilot program allows institutions to gain access to Manati.ai for a limited time to evaluate its effectiveness in their specific context. Learn more about the pilot program.
