The Pilot

Three months. Full suite. Founder-direct support.

Everything you need to run an offline K-12 STEM lab from day one — no extra hardware purchase, no IT lift, no procurement cycle.

All four apps · all grade bands

ZeroSpark, ZaiBlock, ZaiSim and ZaiPy — full access for Grades 1–12 across one shared classroom roster.

150 students + 5 teachers

Per school. Onboarded on a shared classroom layer with live teacher view, lock-screen and broadcast.

Live teacher training included

Four-hour live training session delivered virtually by default. In-person delivery available across the Philippines through Apple Tutors, our Davao-based partner — included for Mindanao schools, available elsewhere as a travel-covered add-on.

Founder-direct support

Email and WhatsApp directly to Lottie Mukuka throughout the pilot. No support ticket queue.

ZeroAI completion certificate

Issued by ZeroAI to your school on completion of the pilot. Suitable for parent newsletters, accreditation files and admissions material.

Quarterly outcome report

Engagement, completion and skill-acquisition data per cohort — yours to keep, and to use in your annual reporting.

The Suite

Four browser-based apps · Grades 1–12

Same shared teacher account across all four. Students progress from visual circuits to real Python and Arduino as they advance.

Grades 4–8
ZaiSim

Hardware reality

Built for the rooms you actually teach in.

No new hardware required. ZeroAI runs entirely in the browser and was designed for DepEd DCP units, refurbished thin clients and shared lab machines.

2 GB RAM is enough
Tested on Dell Wyse 3040 thin clients running antiX Linux in kiosk mode.
100% offline
Works without internet. No Google, no AWS, no VPN.
PWA installable
Lives on the device as if it were a native app. Survives a network outage.
Any modern browser
