IQA sampling. Done by the platform.
Plans auto-generated from your IQA allocations. Sample rates by coach and activity type. AI can do the sampling itself. Cross-cutting themes extracted across every report.

From plan creation to cross-cutting themes.
A complete IQA workflow: plans auto-built from your allocations, AI doing the sampling itself, samplers reviewing and signing off, and themes auto-extracted across the result set.
Plans auto-generated for you
Monthly auto-generation from IQA allocations. The platform creates the sampling plan, populates it with the right activities and assigns the right coaches. No manual plan-building from scratch.
Sample rate by coach AND by activity type
Set a default sample rate at org level. Override per coach. Override per activity type within a plan. The engine applies the right rate to each activity bucket automatically.
Driven by activity due dates
Sampling window calculated from each activity's due date (or completion date). Items get a planned start and end so samplers know exactly when to act on each one.
Sample and write the report in-platform
Per-item review screen for completeness, assessment accuracy, feedback quality, overall grade. Strengths, areas for improvement, recommendations, sampler comments captured on the same screen.
AI does the actual sampling
Not just suggestions. AI runs the full sample on a learner’s evidence, returns grades and findings with a confidence score. Sampler reviews and either agrees, disagrees or partials.
Cross-cutting themes across reports
AI reads completed sampling items and extracts themes by category (strengths, areas for improvement, recommendations). Run org-wide, per coach, per programme, per standard.
AI accuracy reports
Track AI adoption rate and sampler agreement (agree / disagree / partial) over time. Confidence-score and grade-level agreement distributions for governance assurance.
Sampling Gateway
Mandatory pre-EPA quality check with second-opinion and countersign fields. Separate workflow from the main sampling cycle, scoped to gateway-eligible learners.
Built around how IQA actually runs.
Auto-generation removes the manual plan-build. AI does the actual sample. Samplers focus on judgement, not paperwork. Themes turn the result set into governance-grade insight.
Configured once, applied everywhere
Tenant admin sets default sample rate, AI toggles, review-required flag, role access. From there, plans inherit defaults but every coach and activity type can override.
AI assists, samplers commit
AI can complete a sample on its own, but findings are stored as ai_completed status. Samplers review AI work, can reject with reason codes (e.g. AI grading too lenient), and the audit trail records every decision.
Built for cross-cutting analysis
Reports break down by coach, standard, programme or sampler. AI theme extraction surfaces patterns a single sampler couldn’t see, making this the input to standardisation events and CPD planning.
Credit system for AI usage
AI sampling uses purchased credits tracked in a transaction ledger. Org admins see credit balance, allocate per coach if needed, and reconcile usage in monthly billing.
