◆ For education

Train the Next Generation of Coders and Agentic Developers.

The web is being rebuilt by people who write prompts as fluently as they write code. Zyan partners with colleges, bootcamps, and design schools to give the students shaping that future a real browser studio — with the AI pair, the templates, and the cohort controls instructors actually need.

◆ How we partner with educators

Four Ways to Bring Zyan into Your Classroom.

Pick the partnership that matches the term you have in front of you. Every model includes our full feature set — what changes is the commercial scope and how deep our two teams collaborate.

01Most popular

Course Pilot

Run Zyan with a single section of a single course for one term. We pre-load a starter syllabus, classroom controls, and student workspaces. You decide whether to expand at term-end.

  • Free educator seat for the instructor
  • Free student seats — up to 30 per cohort
  • Sample syllabus + grading rubric provided
02

Course Adoption

Multi-section or multi-term rollouts with annual or per-semester billing. Procurement-friendly contracts, purchase orders accepted, FERPA addendum on request.

  • 50% off educator seats (Agency tier)
  • Free student seats included under instructor cohorts
  • Annual or semester billing
03

Research Partnership

For programs studying AI-native development pedagogy, prompt provenance, or agent-assisted CS education. Co-publish results with our team.

  • Free institutional license for the research period
  • Anonymised activity data export with student consent
  • Co-authored case study or paper
04

Beta Cohort

Your students try pre-release agentic features ahead of public launch. We learn from real classroom usage; they get to ship with bleeding-edge tools.

  • Direct line to product engineers
  • Bi-weekly feedback sessions during term
  • Branded student-of-the-term shoutouts (opt-in)
◆ Tools and compute we provide

The Teaching Infrastructure for AI-Native Development.

Every classroom workspace ships with the same tools agencies use to ship client work — plus an agentic prompt library, production-grade templates, and grading-aware instrumentation. Students learn the actual stack they’ll use the day they graduate.

A Browser Studio, Zero Setup

Every student gets the Zyan Build browser studio — editor, file tree, and project panels in any browser. No “set up your machine” week.

Agentic AI Prompt Library

A versioned library of prompts students can fork, run, and remix. Every prompt is logged on the activity feed — graders can read the full reasoning trail.

Production-Grade Templates

Cohorts start from full-source starter sites — Tality, ProTech, Prime — so week one produces a real site, not a scaffold. AI spend is capped per workspace.

A Component Library in Flow

Reusable UI drops straight into student projects from the workspace library — students learn craft alongside code instead of fighting copy-pasted snippets.

Cohort Seats & Permissions

Per-cohort projects with instructor-only admin and a granular student permission grid. Invite by email, adjust mid-term, deprovision at term end.

Prompt Provenance & Integrity

Commit timestamps, branch history, and prompt logs keep capstone authorship transparent — graders read the real work trail, not a screenshot.

Pilot roadmap

Cloud terminals and per-student compute pools are in pilot with beta cohorts — ask about early access when you reach out.

◆ Course schedule

12 Weeks. Coding and Prompting, Side by Side.

An example semester for a course that blends traditional web delivery with agentic workflows. Mix and match — the product is the product; the syllabus is an illustration.

  1. W01Setup

    Onboarding

    Students accept seat invites. Each gets a workspace provisioned from the course starter template.

  2. W02Build

    First Project

    Re-brand the starter to a fictional client. First commit, first snapshot preview to share with the instructor.

  3. W03Build

    First Prompt

    Introduce the AI pair and the prompt library. Every prompt lands in the activity feed for grading.

  4. W04Build

    Git Week

    Branches, PRs, and merges through the GitHub App. Discuss review hygiene on real diffs.

  5. W06Craft

    Audit Week

    Flip the workspace into SEO mode and run real audits against their own builds. Fix what the report finds.

  6. W08Craft

    Peer Review + AI Review

    Feedback threads on each other’s work. Compare human review and AI-assisted review.

  7. W10Apply

    Prompt-Driven Week

    Ship a small feature end-to-end with the AI pair drafting and humans reviewing. Reflect on what humans still decide.

  8. W12Ship

    Capstone Ship

    Final site pushed through the GitHub App. Instructor grades against the activity log + prompt provenance.

◆ Instructor controls

Built for the Way Classrooms Actually Grade.

Instructors get workspace-admin scopes, visibility into student work without spying on it, and grading hooks tied to the activity log.

Classroom Mode

Per-cohort workspace with instructor-only admin and student scopes.

Prompt Visibility

Optionally require prompt logs on every submission. Graders see the full reasoning trail.

Academic Integrity

Commit timestamps, branch history, and prompt logs make copy-pasted capstones obvious.

Seat Management

Invite students by email, adjust permissions mid-term, deprovision at term end.

Course Templates

Start the cohort from a full-source template with first-week assignments laid out.
