In an attempt to begin mainstream school education's use of artificial intelligence, edtech pioneer Extramarks has started launching its AI-powered learning suite, Extra Intelligence, among its network of partner schools.

Positioning itself as the first Indian education company to integrate AI substantively through the whole learning ecosystem — ranging from classroom delivery to after-school support — Extramarks is making this launch a quantum leap towards personalized, accessible, and future-ready learning.

This is not just about automation, says Extramarks CEO and Managing Director Ritvik Kulshrestha. "We are raising pedagogy, making students' outcomes better, and delivering high-quality learning to the remotest parts of the country.".

Embedded at the core of Extra Intelligence is the Teacher Assistant, which is a solution aimed at assisting teachers by allowing them to personalize online lessons to suit their own teaching patterns. Teachers can add real-world references, add bespoke examples, and transform concepts into interactive, interesting content — all due to AI.

Another forte of the suite is its AI-driven assessment engine, which aims to infuse a degree of modernization in traditional evaluations. Teachers can create pen-and-paper-based, cheat-proof tests, while the system grades students' handwritten submissions — long-form subjective answers included — with speed and accuracy.

This release is a growing mainstream move in India's K-12 edtech sector, where AI is no longer reserved for back-end processing or pilot add-ons. Instead, it's becoming more and more a core driver of adaptive learning content delivery, preventing teacher burnout, and ensuring stable student support.

While the firm is not disclosing the number of schools currently enrolled, preliminary results from test schools indicate towards increased lesson planning efficiency and reduced grading time.

In a world where fears of AI replacing the human aspect in education persist, Extramarks appears to be walking a tightrope — using technology to complement, not replace, the teacher. The suite's philosophy, as Kulshrestha puts it, is to "empower the educator, not sideline them.".

As AI continues to redefine the future of education, breakthroughs like Extra Intelligence might just redefine Indian education for its future generations — not just to learn, but to think smart in an AI world.
