Everything a chatbot needs to offer. And even more.

bwGPT_LMS was developed with the goal of offering a privacy-compliant chatbot. But the chatbot also proves that functionality does not have to give way to data privacy.

Image Generation

Whether it's a panda in space or a dog on a surfboard - bwGPT_LMS can generate images that have never been seen before.

Advanced Analysis

Need to quickly create a calculation spreadsheet or summarize a PDF? No problem. bwGPT_LMS can analyze and process files.

Code Execution

Complex tasks? No problem for bwGPT_LMS. Instead of relying on the language model, the chatbot can generate and execute code itself to solve tasks.

Specially developed for universities

The use of chatbots at universities and colleges poses special challenges. bwGPT_LMS was developed specifically for use in teaching and offers numerous special functions.

  • Individual spending limits

    No surprises: Keep expenses under control with the help of global and individual cost limits.

  • Privacy first

    Don't worry, all data is processed in the EU and is not used for other purposes.

  • University-specific knowledge

    Whether it's a canteen plan or examination regulations: bwGPT_LMS can also help with specific questions.

  • Integrated in your LMS

    So that bwGPT doesn't just remain a forgotten tool: With LTI 1.3, we integrate it seamlessly into all common LMS.

  • GPT-4o

    Only the best of the best: We rely on the strongest LLMs to offer your students the best possible experience.

  • Scientific sources (Coming soon)

    bwGPT_LMS can also access scientific sources in order to cut a good figure in scientific questions.

Frequently asked questions

Your question is not listed here? Contact us.

    • GPT-4o and data protection? How does it work?

      Microsoft provides the option to use OpenAI services on European servers through Azure OpenAI, where GDPR applies. With Azure’s Data Residency feature, we ensure that data is not stored in other regions.

    • Where are your servers located?

      We do not operate our own servers. We use servers from Hetzner, located in Nuremberg, as well as services from Microsoft Azure located in Sweden.

    • Are my data used for training?

      No. We only use data that is strictly necessary for the operation of the chatbot. Training on Microsoft’s side is also excluded.

    • How complicated is the setup?

      Thanks to LTI 1.3, the setup is completed within a few minutes. We are happy to support you with the setup in a short meeting.

    • What data do you store?

      We only store what is strictly necessary for the operation of the chatbot and to ensure IT security. This includes chat histories, request information, and settings.

    • Why do you only offer GPT-4o?

      We exclusively offer GPT-4o because it achieves the best results in benchmarks. Focusing on a top-tier model also enables us to optimize and maintain the system more efficiently.

    • Can we get an API key?

      The goal of the project is to provide a chatbot for universities and colleges. Therefore, API keys will not be made available.

    • What user data do you store?

      To enable separate billing, we store which university a user is from. Additionally, we store IP addresses to detect and prevent attacks on our chatbot.

    • How long do you store data?

      Chats are deleted after 30 days. All other usage data is deleted after 90 days. Only the total incurred costs are retained for a longer period.
