What is MagicSchool?
MagicSchool is an AI platform for K-12 schools that gives teachers more than 80 tools for planning and feedback and gives students safe AI tools. It is made by MagicSchool AI, a company founded by a former teacher, and is used by millions of educators and by districts such as Atlanta, Denver and Seattle Public Schools. Teachers get generators for lesson plans, rubrics, quizzes, report card comments, presentations and IEPs, plus a chatbot called Raina.
MagicSchool's difference is that it was built for schools from the start. It is SOC 2 certified, compliant with FERPA, COPPA, GDPR and CCPA, and says it does not use student or teacher data to train AI. Teachers can launch more than 50 student tools, such as an AI tutor, with their own guardrails and see how students use them. Districts add SSO, LMS integrations and dashboards on the Enterprise plan.
