Kaiārahi · the Evidence Engine
How the guide learns to guide you better.
Kaiārahi gets better at helping you the more it understands what actually helps people learn to think with AI. Your practice — pseudonymised, held only under a coded ID — quietly teaches the guide — so it can walk you, and the next person, further through the door. You choose whether to take part, and we guard your trust carefully.
What it is, in plain words
As you try the live experiments — briefing the AI, judging what comes back, shaping the answer — Kaiārahi notices what helps people get unstuck (with detectable identifying details — emails, phone numbers, addresses — stripped out first, and everything held under a coded ID), so the coaching keeps getting wiser. No essays, no surveys: you just keep practising.
You use the live experiments as you read — the way you already would.
Anonymised patterns show what helps tāngata think more clearly with AI.
The coaching sharpens — for you today, and for whoever comes next.
Built to measure — not merely claim
The design: every learner rates themselves before and after — same person, same scale — so the gain is genuinely theirs, not a guess. Our first cohorts are still walking the river, so the figures below are the design targets we hold ourselves to, not results.
Illustrative — design targets, not yet measured results
average lift in self-rated capability, start to finish
complete the core haerenga end to end
say they feel less behind afterwards
would recommend it to their whānau
of learners report the fear easing — the whole reason we built this.
A quick, honest self-rating before you begin.
The live exercises — captured under a coded ID as you go.
The same scale after — so the change is measured on you.
Real cohort results publish here as they land — good and bad.
Figures illustrate the model our Evidence Engine is built to measure against. As real cohorts move through the programme, the live numbers publish right here — the honest ones, good and bad. That transparency is the whole kaupapa.
This is everyone. Now see yourself.
Dials for each skill, your streak, your climb up the awa — measured on you, updating as you practise.
Why we'd love you to join
We built Kaiārahi to help people get the best out of these tools — not to be quietly afraid of them. Every person who takes part makes the guide a little better: clearer explanations, warmer encouragement, coaching that meets people where they are.
It also proves the way works. When we can show, with care and evidence, that ordinary tāngata walk out genuinely more capable, we can bring Kaiārahi to far more of them — through schools, workplaces, and public programmes that reach the hapori who'd never otherwise get the chance.
How we protect you
Pseudonymised first. Detectable identifying details — emails, phone numbers, addresses — are stripped before anything is stored, and every record carries a coded ID rather than your name.
You're never identified. Records are pseudonymous — they can't be traced back to you.
Māori data is taonga. It is treated with guardianship and care, under tikanga, never as a commodity.
Off by default for sensitive groups. Where extra care is owed, capture stays off until the right protections are in place.
Yours to switch off, anytime. Change your mind and it stops — and anything already captured is erased. No questions, no penalty, full access stays.
Never sold. We don't sell your data. It serves the kaupapa — helping people — and nothing else.
Joining the Evidence Engine is entirely optional — you get the full experience either way. But if you do say yes, you become a founding contributor to something genuinely good, and we'll add bonus credits to your account as a thank-you for helping light the way.
