How to assess academic risk with your AI

Connect your attendance data once. From there, your AI handles the math and identifies which students are sliding toward failure.

Short answer

How can I check my attendance risk levels?

Your AI calculates your current attendance percentage and identifies how many absences you have left before hitting a critical threshold. You'll get a breakdown of exactly where each student stands.

Where the data lands.

The outcomes of your analysis.

The AI processes your raw logs into these four specific results.

METRICS

Attendance stats

The AI pulls your logs to find your exact attendance percentage. You get a clean number instead of digging through spreadsheets.

THRESHOLDS

Absence headroom

The AI calculates exactly how many more absences are allowed before a student hits a critical limit. This tells you how much breathing room remains.

SEVERITY

Risk level ratings

Every student is categorized by how close they are to failing. You'll see who needs immediate attention and who is safe.

HUMAN

Manual intervention

The AI flags the high-risk cases, but you decide which students to call or email. It identifies the targets, but you handle the outreach.

The workflow

What your AI does when the data arrives.

The AI moves from raw numbers to actionable risk assessments in a few steps.

  1. Calculate totals

    The AI pulls your raw attendance logs to determine the current percentage of presence versus absence.

    calculate_attendance_metrics

  2. Determine limits

    It compares current absences against your set thresholds to see how much room is left.

    calculate_attendance_metrics

  3. Rank the risk

    The AI evaluates the gap between current status and the critical limit to assign a severity level.

    assess_risk_severity

  4. Flag outliers

    The AI isolates the specific students who have crossed into high-risk territory.

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI change my attendance records?

    No. The AI can only read your data to calculate metrics and assess risk. It cannot edit or delete your original records.

  • 02

    Does the AI decide if a student fails?

    No. The AI identifies risk severity based on your thresholds, but the final decision to fail a student stays with you.

  • 03

    Can I use this with any AI client?

    Yes, as long as your client is MCP-compatible, like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

  • 04

    How does it know what a 'critical threshold' is?

    It uses the specific absence limits defined in your connected attendance data.

  • 05

    Will the AI send emails to students for me?

    No. The AI identifies who is at risk, but it does not have the capability to send messages or emails.
