AI in education, put to work across the university
Most of what is written about AI in education is about the classroom. Much of a university's daily work happens around it: choosing courses, checking prerequisites, preparing each term's timetable, answering the same questions every semester and producing the reports that decisions depend on. Dayan AI, by Eques AI, is an AI assistant for that work — for the whole university community, over the institution's own data.
الذكاء الاصطناعي في التعليم لا يقتصر على قاعة الدرس: ديان مساعد ذكي يخدم المجتمع الجامعي كله — الإرشاد الأكاديمي وجدولة المقررات والتقارير — على بيانات الجامعة نفسها، بالعربية أو الإنجليزية.
What AI can do for each part of the university
Students
Questions about courses, prerequisites and credit hours, their own schedule and course record, the university's news, and help with research work.
Instructors
Their schedules, questions about courses and study plans, and help with course materials, documents and correspondence.
Departments and faculties
Preparing, validating and approving each term's schedule phase by phase, with every workbook checked before the next step.
Staff and administrators
Schedule records, summaries and reports as documents, and answers grounded in the university's own data.
AI in a university needs its own rules
Grounded in the institution's data
Answers, schedules and reports come from the university's own curriculum, course guide and data on file — not from generic information.
Access decided by role
Members sign in with the university account, and each role decides what the assistant may show and do; a student sees only their own record. Each university decides what each role can use.
People approve, the assistant checks
Departments confirm each scheduling phase; Dayan validates and explains, and never pushes a step through on its own.
Both of the university's languages

AI in education in Egypt, in Arabic and English
Dayan AI speaks English and Egyptian Arabic and writes its documents in either language. Its first deployment is Heliopolis University in Cairo, where members sign in with their @hu.edu.eg Google account and use it free of charge during the pilot.
Frequently asked questions
What does AI in education mean for a university?
Beyond teaching and learning, it means using AI for the work that runs the university: advising students, preparing schedules, answering recurring questions and producing reports — with access decided by each member's role.
Is AI in education only about teaching?
No. Tutoring and learning tools get most of the attention, but much of a university's work is academic planning and administration — the part Dayan AI is built for.
How is Dayan AI different from a general chatbot?
It is deployed for one institution and works over that institution's own curriculum, rules and data; it knows each member's role, runs the scheduling workflow step by step and produces documents — in English or Arabic.
Who can use Dayan AI?
Every member of a university where it is deployed — students, instructors, staff and administrators. Today that is Heliopolis University.
Does Dayan AI speak Arabic?
Yes. It replies in Egyptian Arabic when you write in Arabic, and produces Arabic documents laid out right-to-left.
How can another university get Dayan AI?
Write to Eques AI at support@equesai.tech. Dayan AI is deployed per university, on that university's curriculum and data.
