What is MachinaViva?

AI-powered vivas for learning and assessment.

MachinaViva uses short, structured chat-style vivas to make understanding visible. Students explain reasoning in their own words, helping teachers see beyond polished AI-assisted outputs.

Every session generates transcripts, feedback, and integrity indicators without relying on exams or intrusive surveillance. MachinaViva runs inside your VLE or as a standalone platform.

Why MachinaViva?

When generative AI is everywhere, understanding must be visible.

Teachers need to see how students think, not just read what they produce.

Learning need

Students need to practise thinking

With AI tools always available, it is easy to generate answers but harder to explain them. Students need structured opportunities to articulate reasoning, test ideas, and uncover misconceptions.

Student fluency with AI tools can mask understanding.

Assessment gap

Outputs alone are not enough

AI can assist with coursework, coding, and written submissions. Final outputs no longer provide reliable evidence of who understands the work.

Output-only assessment cannot confidently judge understanding.

MachinaViva

The MachinaViva approach

Structured Viva Flows make students explain ideas in their own words, building understanding while verifying it at scale.

Teachers get transcript, feedback, and integrity signals.

Understanding becomes visible, improvable, and easy to evidence.
