Splotch is an AI art companion for high school and college students — the kind that helps you figure out what you're actually trying to make before you worry about how to make it.
What Splotch does
Every student has something to say through their work. Splotch starts with a real conversation — not a prompt — to help them discover what draws them to art and what kind of work they actually want to make.
Facing a blank canvas is one of the hardest parts of being an artist. Splotch helps students think through ideas, materials, and composition before a single mark is made — so they arrive at their work with direction.
Creative blocks don't respect class schedules. Splotch is available whenever a student needs a thinking partner — at midnight before a deadline, or in the middle of a piece that stopped making sense.
For the teacher, too
When your students are talking to Splotch, you have access to the full picture — conversation histories, emerging themes, and per-student summaries. The kind of context that changes how you plan the next class.
Student data
We know that bringing any new tool into a classroom means asking hard questions about what happens to student data. Here's our straightforward answer.
Teachers can view conversation histories with their students — and students know this upfront. We believe clear visibility beats hidden fine print. There's no secret channel, just the same accountability you'd expect in any classroom.
Student data is never sold to third parties, used for advertising, or shared outside the service. Conversations exist to help students — full stop.
We collect only what the service needs to work: an email address, a class section code, and conversation history. Nothing is collected that isn't directly useful to the student or teacher.
Splotch is built with FERPA expectations in mind. We retain only what's necessary to run the service, and we're happy to work with your school on data lifecycle and deletion needs.
Early access
Splotch is in early access. We're working with a small group of art teachers and students right now. If you'd like to be part of it, get in touch — we'll reach out when a spot opens up.
