One AI-workflow platform
for academia
The same agentic infrastructure — custom AI workflows, document intelligence, academic profiles — powers two products with two audiences: research and teaching. Institutions license them as modules.
Essence Scholar
For research
- Deep literature research & drafting
- Research notebooks with AI chat, reports & podcasts
- Smart newsletters — curated SSRN scans, weekly
- Submission checks & referee-style review
- MCP: your workflows inside Claude, Cursor & more
Essence Teacher
For teaching
- AI-assisted course & assignment design
- Exam generation with model solutions
- Case studies grounded in real market data
- AI teaching assistant with instructor guardrails
- Teach and evaluate AI skills, not just with AI
Shared platform engine — built once, powering both
Agentic AI workflows
design, run & share multi-step pipelines
Document intelligence
retrieval over papers, courses & cases
Academic profiles
evidence-linked researcher & student context
One account

one billing & usage system
Not two companies, not two stacks — one engine, one database, one account. A member signs in once and moves between research and teaching.
