🍎AI tools for teachers

Teachers use AI to plan lessons, generate quizzes at different levels, build slide decks from notes, summarize readings for students and find fresh material for a topic. It frees up evenings for the parts of teaching that need a human.

We would prioritize accuracy you can check, simple sharing with your class, and strong privacy for any student information.

We picked 14 tools across education, presentation maker, summarizer and research — 12 of them free to start.
