The University of Cincinnati has launched BearcatGPT, a private AI platform for academic and health services. UC is the first university in Ohio to offer a private and secure AI platform. The platform has over 100 agents created since its rollout last semester, including 'Bearcat Study Pal' and 'Bearcat Test-Prepper'. At UC's Clermont campus, staff used BearcatGPT to build tutoring agents for math due to a pressing need for tutors. BearcatGPT was unveiled to faculty in 2025 and to students in February this year. Officials plan to introduce an agent to help faculty ensure coursework is accessible to students with disabilities.
