SettingPurpose
OpenAI API keyRequired — used for transcription and feedback. Stored securely and never shown to teachers or learners.
Default AI modelThe model used to analyse submissions (e.g. a GPT-4o-class model).
Default maximum file sizeThe default upload limit applied to new activities.

AI Coach analyses submissions in the background using Moodle’s scheduled-task (cron) system, so Moodle cron must be running (at least every few minutes) for feedback to be produced. If learners report that submissions stay in the “being analysed” state, check that cron is running on your server.
