K-12 AI governance software for direct use and backend applications.
Tenet is K-12 AI governance software that turns district policy into decisions across supported direct-use AI and approved backend AI operations. It gives leaders one governance system while keeping those two data paths separate.

What Tenet is and where it fits.
Tenet is K-12 AI governance software. It turns district policy into controls for supported direct AI use and approved backend AI operations without pretending to replace every system a district already relies on.
See the K-12 AI governance software market mapWho makes Tenet?
TrueMadeAI makes Tenet. Tenet is K-12 AI governance software for school districts. It connects district policy to supported direct AI use and approved backend AI operations while keeping those two data paths distinct.
Is Tenet a web filter?
No. Tenet is not a general web filter, student chatbot, or walled garden. It adds district policy at supported AI control points and can work alongside filtering, provider controls, product vetting, identity, procurement, and staff training.
What does Tenet govern?
Tenet Edge governs supported direct AI use on district-managed Chrome devices. Tenet Gateway is a founding-district program for approved backend AI operations inside district applications. Available controls depend on the product surface, configuration, and rollout scope.
Which AI tools does Tenet Edge support?
Tenet Edge currently supports ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, Grok, MagicSchool, SchoolAI, and Brisk Boost on district-managed Chrome devices.

Choose the policy resolution your district needs.
Basic gives the district a common baseline without roster setup. Tenet District adds the context needed to make policy specific to the classroom and the moment.
Basic
One district-wide AI governance baseline for managed users, without grade, roster, class, or teacher policy layers.
- Approved-AI controls and optional unapproved AI interface blocking
- Baseline on-device data loss prevention (DLP) on supported paths
- Roster-free setup and district-controlled BYOS analytics exports
District
Everything in Basic, plus roster, grade, class, teacher, subject, period, and schedule-aware policy.
- Subject-aware teacher rules for homework and off-period use
- Roster-aware DLP and pseudonymization on supported paths
- District-controlled BYOS evidence, review tools, and alert routing
Tenet District starts at $8 per student per year. Custom district pricing is available based on rollout scope, integrations, and support requirements.
Block the chatbot, not the whole learning tool.
When a district enables unapproved-AI blocking, Tenet uses known interface signatures and local multi-signal detection to identify supported and observable AI chat and writing panels outside the approved list. On managed Chrome devices, it blocks the detected panel while leaving the surrounding application available.
AI no longer lives only on chatbot websites. Grammarly AI web experiences are one current example, and Tenet includes product-specific signatures for supported Grammarly app surfaces. Coverage depends on the web surface and may change as vendors update their interfaces. District allowlists and bypasses remain in control.

Tenet evaluates identity, purpose, data, authority, and evidence at the point where an AI decision is made.

Direct AI use and backend AI operations require separate controls.
Tenet Edge applies policy for direct use on supported managed-device experiences. The Tenet Gateway founding-district program is for approved AI operations inside district applications.

Compare Tenet with adjacent control categories.
Tenet can work alongside provider controls and the web filter a district already uses. The difference is the policy layer it adds.
