Institutional Compliance

Academic decisions carry institutional responsibility.
They require control over data, processes, and systems.

Sapheos is designed to operate within this framework and fully integrate with your university's LMS, e.g. Canvas, Blackboard, etc.

In July 2024, TEQSA required every Australian provider to submit an action plan on generative AI. Sapheos is the infrastructure that makes that plan operational.

This is especially critical for dissertation, capstone, and internship-based assessments, where data, authorship, and final decisions carry institutional consequences.
