Who is viaFlaminia for?
It is for Latin students, Latin teachers, tutors, and independent learners who want the translation process to remain visible and discussable.

Can teachers use viaFlaminia in class?
Yes. The product is designed to help teachers discuss student reasoning, including vocabulary choices, morphology tags, uncertainty, and draft revision.
Does viaFlaminia grade translations automatically?
No. It is not an automatic grading system. It preserves the work so a learner or teacher can review it.
What does AI Assist Premium do?
AI Assist Premium adds optional sentence-level comparison support. It should be used after student analysis, not as a replacement for it.
Can I scan printed books?
Camera capture is intended for lawful study use. Use public-domain, licensed, owned, or otherwise permitted material, and do not redistribute captured text unless you have permission or another legal basis.
Does viaFlaminia replace dictionaries or grammar instruction?
No. Dictionaries, grammar references, and teacher feedback remain important. viaFlaminia organizes the translation workspace around those decisions.
What are the limitations?
viaFlaminia does not promise full automatic parsing, automatic grading, or guaranteed translation correctness. Its value is in making the translation process visible.
