Early Access Teachers
What teachers in our early-access program are saying
"The sub plan generator alone is worth the subscription. I used to put off calling in sick because writing the sub plan took longer than just going in."
"My IEP notes used to take all evening. Teacher's Buddy gives me a solid draft in minutes, and I just review and adjust. It respects my professional judgment."

Common Questions
Questions teachers ask
Everything you need to know before your first lesson plan draft.
Yes. Teacher's Buddy processes only the subject, grade level, and instructional context you provide. We never ask for student names, IDs, or personal data. Our infrastructure is designed to align with FERPA and COPPA guidance, and your inputs are not used to train any AI model.
Most teachers report spending 5 to 10 minutes reviewing and personalizing the AI draft rather than 60 to 90 minutes writing from scratch. The output follows standards alignment and your selected learning objectives, so the structure is solid out of the box.
Educator and School plan subscribers can export to Google Docs with one click, or copy clean formatted text for any LMS. Native integrations for Schoology, Canvas, and Infinite Campus are on the roadmap for Q3 2026. Free plan users get plain text copy-paste export.
