Evaluate Octopodi in a real course and determine whether it can improve your programming-assessment workflow.

Octopodi Technologies is inviting a limited number of instructors to participate in our Fall 2026 Pilot Program.

The pilot is designed for educators teaching coding-intensive courses who are interested in exploring new approaches to assessment, feedback, and understanding student learning.

Participants will receive access to Octopodi throughout the pilot period and will work directly with our founding team to provide feedback, share insights, and help shape the future of the platform.

First 5 testers will receive the pilot for free (4 remaining seats). Additional seats will be charged at a discounted price.

What is Octopodi Inksight?

What You'll Receive

Octopodi Inksight is an assessment intelligence platform that helps instructors understand how students think through code, not just whether it runs.

Rather than reviewing submissions one at a time, Octopodi analyzes patterns across an entire class to surface:

  • Common misconceptions

  • Learning trends

  • Solution strategies

  • Areas requiring intervention

  • Learning outcome insights

The goal is not to replace instructor judgment. The goal is to provide educators with better visibility into student learning while reducing the time required to manually review hundreds of submissions.

Pilot participants will receive:

✓ Access to the Octopodi platform during the pilot period

✓ Personalized onboarding session

✓ Direct access to the founding team

✓ Priority feature consideration

✓ Early access to new functionality

✓ Opportunities to shape future product development

✓ Participation in pilot case studies and research initiatives

Privacy, Security & Responsible AI

We understand that student data, assessment information, and academic work require careful stewardship. That's why privacy and security have been foundational considerations throughout the development of Octopodi.
