Bloom is a theory-of-mind-optimized Socratic interlocutor seamlessly integrated into Discord.

It’s pedagogically trained to help you learn anything.

We built it using the latest generative language models (GPT-4 currently), so every conversation is unique, every experience crafted to produce novel insights. And we’re planning many more features.

You can chat with Bloom in the group messaging app Discord, where we host it in our dedicated server. The server is a digital campus we host and moderate, with lots of group chat functionality.

At Plastic Labs, we believe that native language fluency is the skill that loads other skills, the key to learning how to learn.

We also believe in the power of personalized education, and especially 1:1 tutoring, to deliver outsized academic outcomes. That’s why we designed Bloom — our first product — to use the Socratic method and replicate an Aristotelian tutor to help students master written language.

The Bloom student experience is safeguarded at four levels:

1. Bloom is engineered with the goal of learner flourishing at the core of its design.
2. All of Bloom’s outputs are filtered through OpenAI’s moderation API, which removes harmful speech.
3. We make full use of Discord’s community moderation toolkit to ensure human behavior in the Bloom digital campus stays safe.
4. The Bloom server has teacher-trained human moderators from the Bloom team present to enhance the learning experience, but Bloom can always be used privately via direct message.
