bdaic.ai is a real site now

For two issues running we said a public landing site was on the way. It is here. bdaic.ai has been rebuilt as a proper front door — what we do, selected work, the public tools you can actually use, and how to work with us.

The Spring 2026 Impact Report has not gone anywhere; it is still there, still readable in full, now as one part of the site instead of the whole of it.

We started writing longer — BDAIC Commons

Some things do not fit a monthly recap. BDAIC Commons, our new blog at blog.bdaic.ai, is where the longer pieces go: how a project was actually built, what we learned partway through, and what we would do differently. There is an RSS feed if that is how you read.

First dispatch — build it, hand it over

Our first Commons piece is about a website, and about giving it away. We built a site for Belmont's Cone Center and then handed over the keys — because a site somebody else has to maintain for you is not really yours.

It is a pattern we use a lot: build the thing, then make sure the people who own it can run it without us.

“Partnering with the Belmont Data and AI Collaboration has been an incredible opportunity to reimagine how we use AI to better serve our students. The BDAIC team introduced us to new and elevated ways to leverage AI to build a stronger, more engaging website and improve the student experience.

This project is just the beginning of an exciting partnership, with many new opportunities for our students and alumni ahead. We are incredibly grateful for the BDAIC team, their vision, and their shared commitment to supporting the next generation of entrepreneurs.”

AI literacy — the platform is up

Belmont's AI Literacy Framework — a university-wide initiative, tiered across five levels — now has a platform behind it. It delivers the Level 1 assessments, currently in pilot with Belmont's College of Business, tracks what each participant has finished, and issues a certificate for each completed block.

Every AI-assisted score is reviewed by a person before it counts — the framework is about people learning to use AI well, so it would be a strange thing to hand the grading over entirely.
