IBM WatsonX + Granite
Granite foundation models score burnout risk, detect deadline clustering, and generate natural-language weekly digests. Hosted on IBM Cloud.
03 — ACT
Dashboard + Alerts
Students get burnout scores and rebalancing tips. Educators see anonymized cohort trends. Alerts fire before deadlines cluster.
