What Axis keeps about a student
- A first name or nickname, an optional last initial, and a grade.
- Optional layout needs (larger print, more space) and notes an adult writes.
- Their answers, photos of completed pages, and the progress record built from them.
Axis never asks for a birth date, address, school ID or photo of a student. Please don't photograph faces.
What it's used for
To find where a student starts, make worksheets at the right level, check completed pages, and show progress to the adults in the workspace. Nothing is sold, and nothing is used for advertising.
Reading uploaded pages with AI
Photos of completed pages are sent to Anthropic, an AI provider, to read the handwritten answers. Before sending, Axis removes everything in the photo file that isn't the picture (location, device, time). Axis only suggests marks; nothing reaches a student's record until an adult approves it. A workspace can stop AI reading at any time in Settings.
Who handles the data for Axis
- Supabase: sign-in, database and file storage.
- Render: hosting the app.
- Anthropic: reading uploaded pages, as above. Anthropic doesn't train its models on this data.
- Resend: sending emails you ask for, such as sign-in links and placement checks.
All of it is stored and processed in the United States, including AI reading.
Who can see it
Only adults invited to the workspace, within their role. An educator in a school can be limited to their own students. Reports stay inside the workspace: Axis makes no public links to them.
How long it's kept, and deleting it
- Without an account, everything is deleted after 30 days of no use.
- With an account, data stays until you delete it. Deleting a student removes their records, photos and reports.
- An owner or admin can download all of a workspace's data from Settings, or one student's from that student's page.
- Backups held by our providers expire on their own schedule after deletion.
Who may agree
A parent or guardian for their own students, or an adult authorized by the school for a school's students.
