Key facts

Teacher Mode: a classroom board for IAMX characters in a 3D scene

With Teacher Mode on, the character's AI model can write short notes, typeset a formula, show a question with two to six options, highlight the correct option, mark a final result and clear the board for a new problem. When a character uses separate speech recognition, AI model and voice (the standard conversation mode), its spoken teaching content comes from the accepted board content, which helps keep the written and spoken steps together. Realtime speech-to-speech voices (Gemini Live from Starter, OpenAI Realtime from Pro) write on the board alongside their own generated audio, so test that mode separately.

The board appears in the website widget, the embed and Studio Test when the character uses a 3D avatar scene. It does not appear with LiveFace photo avatars or Pixel Streaming, and the IAMX Unreal Engine plugin does not display it.

Every plan can use Teacher Mode within its usage units. Curriculum documents in the Knowledge Base need Starter or higher, because Free has no knowledge storage. Compare plans on pricing.

Set up an AI tutor with a classroom board

The classroom controls belong to the character's scene in IAMX Studio. Each classroom preset includes a working chalkboard that serves as the AI tutor's whiteboard.

1. Open the classroom controls

   Open the character, go to Model & Face → Scene & animation, and open Light & environment in the Scene tools.

2. Turn on Teacher Mode

   Pick a classroom preset or keep your own background, then switch Teacher Mode on.

3. Frame the board

   Use Frame board and character in each view you publish (desktop, mobile and widget), then adjust the board position and size so formulas stay readable.

4. Add the persona and sources

   Describe how the character should teach. On Starter or higher, attach your syllabus in the character's Knowledge Base; realtime speech-to-speech characters do not use these documents.

5. Save, test and publish

   Save, then in Test ask for an exercise, answer it incorrectly and check both the board and the speech; test calls can use usage units. Then publish the scene and start a new conversation in your embed; a saved draft alone does not update the live scene.

Using the board as an AI math tutor

Short equations are typeset from a supported LaTeX subset. Matrices and LaTeX environments are not supported, and a formula that cannot be typeset appears as plain text, so test the notation you plan to teach.

In the standard conversation mode, spoken math wording is converted for Turkish and English, and other languages hear English math wording; realtime speech-to-speech voices word formulas themselves. The character is instructed to let the student try before it reveals an answer, but that is an instruction to the AI model, not a guarantee of mathematical correctness, so check your worked examples.

IAMX Academy: Turkish tutoring with a teacher's AI avatar

IAMX Academy is a separate Turkish-language learning site. Its accounts are separate from IAMX Studio accounts, and it is not tied to IAMX plans.

• Teachers are asked to upload a teaching document, and a profile is shown to students only after a manual review approves it.
• The AI avatar comes from the teacher's own 3D model after approval, or from a portrait photo when the cloud renderer is available. Teachers pick a premade voice or, after approval, create one from a recording, subject to the voice provider.
• Teachers upload their own course documents of up to 20 MB each. Text is extracted, so scanned pages need a text layer.
• Lessons are guided explanations the teacher writes, open question-and-answer sessions or quizzes, each assigned to an individual student. Teachers can rehearse a draft for up to 30 minutes without using a student's hours.

The avatar uses the teacher's assigned documents to shape its answers. Answers are AI-generated and should be checked, and a Q&A lesson without assigned sources may use general knowledge.

Lesson time for students, reports for teachers

Students buy lesson-hour packages for a specific teacher, priced in Turkish lira on Academy, once that teacher's avatar and voice are ready. Time is used only after the student starts the lesson and stops while it is paused.

Students talk or type to the teacher's AI avatar in Turkish; speaking needs browser microphone permission. The lesson board shows text, the teacher's images, quiz options and simple diagrams, and, while Academy's AI model accepts images, students can draw a solution for AI feedback that never changes quiz scores.

Teachers see each student's study time, quiz answers and results by topic, which depend on how the teacher tags questions. After a student's first lesson, a teacher can generate an AI summary of that student's recorded work at most once a day; it is AI-written, may be wrong and is not an assessment.

Corporate training and onboarding

In a character's Experience settings, you can define up to 20 rehearsal scenarios in which a person role-plays with the AI and gets feedback against your weighted rubric; scenarios must be published before use. A rehearsal runs only for a user signed in to the IAMX account that owns the character, and IAMX has no team seats or invitations, so rehearsal is a Studio practice tool for trainer-led or supervised practice, not a link you send to staff. There is no per-trainee roster or score export, and the scores are AI feedback for practice, not formal assessments.

For onboarding, an IAMX character can answer employee questions from documents you upload, such as a handbook, on Starter or higher (not with realtime speech-to-speech voices); test the answers before rollout. There is no HR-system integration or built-in single sign-on, so keep an internal assistant behind your own sign-in or private API-key access.

What IAMX does not provide for education

IAMX Teacher Mode and IAMX Academy are tutoring and practice tools, not a learning management system or a credentialing service.

• No LMS connectors and no SCORM, xAPI or LTI support.
• No single sign-on, group or classroom enrollment, certificates or parent accounts.
• No live teacher in Academy lessons: the student talks to the teacher's AI avatar.
• No promise of learning outcomes; answers and feedback are AI-generated and can be wrong.
