Research People

One researcher. Every paper has an author you can write to.

We are deliberately small. Every published result has a named person who did the work and who will answer a question about the method, rather than a press address that routes to nobody.

The group

Who works on what.

Mohit Bhardwaj

Head of Analytics · Predictive modelling · Data quality · Causal inference & efficacy · Fairness & measurement · Curriculum & capacity · Language & student voice

Leads the analytics group and the research programme: the institution-specific models, the validation gates that stop a weak model reaching an advisor, the termly efficacy studies, the subgroup fairness reporting that gates every deployment, and the topic analysis over student feedback. Sole author of the six reports listed below.

Advisors

People who tell us when we’re wrong.

Three external advisors review methodology before publication. They are paid for their time, they hold no equity, and they are free to disagree with us publicly. Two have.

Advisor

Prof. Meera Iyer

Educational measurement, Indian Institute of Education (visiting)

Reviews study design before publication and has twice told us a result would not survive peer review.

Advisor

Dr. James Okonkwo

Learning analytics, independent

Advises on the fairness auditing programme and the limits of what our gap definition can establish.

Advisor

Anjali Varma

Data protection and student rights, independent counsel

Advises on what our processor commitments should mean in practice, including where they cost us revenue.

Joining

Research roles here ship.

Every area lead also owns the corresponding production system. The measurement and the implementation are the same job, which is either the appeal or the objection depending on what you want from a research post.

Publication

You publish what you find

No internal review can suppress a result for being commercially inconvenient. Two of our six papers contain findings that are bad for us.

Ownership

Prior work stays yours

We do not assign anything you built before you arrived.

Access

Real institutional data, real constraints

You will work with live student records under processor obligations, which is more interesting and more restrictive than a public dataset.
