Our flagship · Aye Wanda
AI as human augmentation, not cost cutting.
Cost cutting is the road to disaster. Human augmentation is the road to abundance. Aye Wanda is how we show the difference: a tutoring platform built on the decomposition of tutoring and current AI research, with a core engine and abstraction layers that let a college, a district, or a training department run a custom implementation on its own curriculum.
The same engine offers low-cost tutoring to anyone who needs help with general coursework — our route to cost-friendly tutoring for underserved communities around the world. It carries everything this firm has done: enterprise software design, systems integration, cybersecurity, and workforce development since 2010.
Developed with research from synED, the nonprofit Scott Young founded and leads.
- The AcademyCertification and interview preparation.
- The Orbital LabOpen exploration of big questions.
- CypherwildMathematics, from fundamentals up.
About us
Strategic guidance, the way a seasoned coach gives it.
In business since 2007. Before that, our founder led professional consulting services for an enterprise software firm — ERP implementations, corporate computer-based training, and systems integration for Fortune 50 companies.
At ListenToSee, we empower executives and their organizations with strategic guidance akin to the role of a seasoned athletic coach. Our mission is to provide insightful counsel on the latest technologies, tools, and resources that will drive your business towards achieving its goals.
Our guiding philosophy is to remove the clutter from the business process: set the “how” aside long enough to be clear about the “why,” then apply the best available resources in the most cost-effective way.
