University of Sydney launches Cogniti AI teaching platform on Microsoft Marketplace

The University of Sydney has launched its educator-controlled Cogniti AI teaching platform on Microsoft Marketplace. The platform lets teachers create course-specific AI agents for feedback, simulations, and problem-solving. It follows use across University of Sydney courses and nursing trials in New Zealand.

This gives university teachers a configurable course-level AI agent tool and expands distribution through Microsoft Marketplace. For teachers, course-specific agents can support feedback and simulation teaching; for schools, the procurement and deployment path may become clearer. Public information currently comes only from a media roundup, with no independent verification of platform details, pricing, adoption scale, or teaching outcomes. Teachers can create course-specific AI agents for feedback, simulations, and problem-solving. The platform's listing on Microsoft Marketplace may change how universities procure and deploy AI teaching tools.
