Questions
Every question here came from a real conversation with a program director or coordinator, answered the way we’d answer it on a call — including the two where the answer is “no”.

The first thing every program director asks, so it goes first.
Adapt is free for your program. Instructor and admin accounts cost nothing, with no seat counts and no per instructor licensing.
Students purchase their own access, or your program can pay for the whole cohort instead. Either way your program gets the full portal and analytics, and there’s no procurement cycle to start.
Everything runs through the email your instructor or admin sends.
If students pay, they buy one simple access product from that invite email, priced by program level and length of access. If your program pays, you purchase access up front and send each student an access ticket by email. Either way, students sign in to the mobile app with that same email and find their courses already there. Enrollment is matched on the email address you invited, so they need to use that address rather than a personal one.
What changes for your faculty, and what doesn’t.
No. Adapt runs alongside the LMS you already use, with no migration and no course rebuild.
You start from a standard EMT, AEMT, or Paramedic course and shape it to your program. Nothing moves out of Canvas.
Days, not semesters.
Pick your level, shape the course to your program, review what Adapt drafts, upload your roster from a CSV, and students can start — there’s no implementation project and no new system for your faculty to learn. The product page walks through each step.
Who is in charge of what students see.
You do — nothing reaches a student until you assign the course to a group.
Adapt drafts the lessons; before you assign one you can edit any card or regenerate any lesson.
Not easily, and it would take more effort than just answering.
Adapt’s cards ask students to recall answers, put steps in order and match look-alikes, so it isn’t just A, B, C, D. Running that through a chatbot is slower and clunkier than doing the work, which is why the responses are a real signal of what students actually know.
About three to five minutes.
Each lesson is built to fit between classes and shifts on the phone the student already carries, rather than competing with a forty minute desktop module.
The questions your IT department and your dean will ask.
Your uploaded file is processed and then deleted — it’s never written to a database, the AI service keeps no copy, and it’s never used to train AI models.
Files under 20MB are held in memory only; at 20MB and above they go to a private bucket and are deleted once the run is finished with them. What persists is the course you assigned and your students’ responses. Full detail on the security page.
No. The Vertex API, the one AI service Adapt uses, doesn’t train AI models on your content or your students’ data.
No — we are not SOC 2 certified, no audit is underway, and we hold no FERPA, COPPA, HIPAA or GDPR attestation.
We do have a FERPA Data Processing Addendum drafted for institutional agreements, and we list everything we don’t yet have on the security page so it doesn’t surface mid-procurement.
Not yet — we have no signed institutional customer and no pass-rate study, and we’re not going to imply otherwise.
What we can do is let you explore the instructor portal with a sample class before a call, no account needed, so you’re judging the product rather than a claim.
If your IT department has a question this page doesn’t cover, the security page goes further — including a list of what we don’t claim yet. For anything else, ask us directly.
Anything this page can’t settle, ten minutes with a sample EMT class will. No account needed.
Free for instructors and admins. No card needed.
