We're giving school staff and parents their time back.
BaboBot is an AI information engine built for K-12 schools. It answers families and staff from the school's own documents, shows where each answer came from, and flags conflicting information for an admin to fix.
It started with a dining hall.
The goal has always been simple: people shouldn't have to dig through portals, emails, and apps to get a straight answer.

The first proof of concept
BaboBot started at Babson College as a dining hall platform that answered one question: what's being served today? Over 25% of the student body used it daily.

From campus dining to K-12 schools
The same frustration was everywhere in education: parents emailing the front office at 9 PM, and teachers searching three systems for one policy.
- Today
Built with K-12 schools
We built BaboBot by sitting down with dozens of school administrators, from heads of school to IT directors and front-office staff, and shaping it around how their schools actually run. Today it answers families and staff from each school's own documents.
The principles behind every feature.
Accuracy over speed
Every answer shows the documents it came from. If BaboBot can't find the answer in your approved sources, it says so. We would rather say "I don't know" than risk a wrong answer.
Privacy is non-negotiable
Your school's data stays yours. BaboBot does not search the open internet. FERPA and COPPA compliant.
Built for school staff
Schools shouldn't need an IT department to use AI. We set BaboBot up with you, and you can be live in under a week.
