Generative AI is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that can create new content based on patterns it learns from existing data.
MagicSchool AI is a platform that takes the power of AI and puts it into educators’ and students’ hands to help them use it productively and responsibly in their respective work. With over 6 million users, MagicSchool is the most used and loved AI platform built for education in the world.

MagicSchool was created by educators for educators. Our founder was a principal, and much of our team has spent years in classrooms. We know how much time teachers spend planning, grading, and managing administrative work. We believe that when educators and students have the right tools and guardrails, AI can help us reimagine teaching and learning in powerful new ways.
MagicSchool uses a multi-model approach and pairs each tool with the model that performs best for its task. Today, we use multiple providers, including OpenAI GPT-4o, Anthropic Claude, and Google Gemini, among others. We test models continually to ensure quality, safety, and reliability.
To keep results current and education-specific, we supplement LLMs with our own up-to-date sources. Our internal systems can incorporate recent standards, curriculum guidance, and trusted documentation so teachers get accurate, relevant outputs even when a base model has an older training cutoff. Certain tools can also search the web when appropriate and allowed.

MagicSchool is proactive with sharing best practices for ethical and responsible usage of AI. We display these upon login for teachers and students as best practices to use AI safely:
Educators:
Students:
MagicSchool uses multiple layers of content moderation to keep interactions safe and age-appropriate. Each AI model we use includes its own built-in safeguards, and we add additional filters tailored to school settings to block or decline inappropriate content and requests.
We’re continuously improving our moderation systems and benefit from feedback across our community of more than 6 million educators and students. This helps us identify and address issues quickly and responsibly. Learn more about how moderation works.
While MagicSchool includes multiple layers of safeguards and content moderation, students may find creative ways to test its limits (something every educator understands well).
That’s exactly why we built MagicSchool: to give students a safe, guided space to explore AI responsibly, with teachers there to support and redirect as needed. Teachers can view all student activity through their dashboards and help guide appropriate use, just as they would with any classroom technology.
MagicSchool was designed specifically to meet the privacy and security needs of schools and districts. We never sell data or use personally identifiable information (PII) to train AI models. Our platform follows strict security, compliance, and data-protection standards to keep educators and students safe.
You can review our most current policies and documentation on our Privacy and Security page.
MagicSchool is designed for safe use across K–12, with features and safeguards that allow teachers and schools to oversee all student activity.
Students access MagicSchool only through accounts assigned and monitored by their teachers. This means educators (and, when applicable, district administrators) can view all student interactions in real time.
While some general-use AI tools restrict users to ages 13 and older, those age limits apply to direct accounts with those providers. MagicSchool uses secure API integrations that allow schools to comply with privacy laws such as COPPA and FERPA, enabling responsible AI use for younger students within a supervised educational environment.
The appropriate age for use is ultimately determined by each school or district’s policy. Teachers and administrators should ensure that student use aligns with local guidelines and that a responsible adult monitors all activity.
Educators must be 18 years or older to use the educator platform and to launch Student Rooms.

Yes! MagicSchool integrates with Canvas and Schoology, allowing teachers and students to access AI-powered tools directly within their existing workflows. We also offer 1-click exports to Google and Microsoft, making it easy to transfer content seamlessly between platforms. Additionally, teachers can use our Google Chrome extension to bring MagicSchool’s AI tools wherever they go.
While these integrations enhance flexibility, the most robust MagicSchool experience is on our platform, where users get full access to our suite of tools and features. Learn more about all of our integrations.
We offer SSO for our Enterprise partners via Clever, Classlink, Canvas, Google, Microsoft, etc. This allows for our partners to share up-to-date staff and student email lists while providing a seamless log in and authentication for their organization. This also allows for verification of identity for organization administrators. Learn more about all of our integrations.
For Enterprise partners we give access to high level data to monitor teacher usage, and soon, student usage of the product. You can expect that we will also give greater localized control over the system to you over the course of time.
Believe us when we say, “soon!” - it’s our calling card. We launch new tools and features all the time, always inspired by your suggestions and helping to solve your challenges with AI. You can share these with us on our chat in the bottom right corner of the app or email us directly at [email protected] with your suggestions.
Yes! We will always offer a generous free version of MagicSchool for educators. Most functionalities of the platform that you’ve grown to love remain free, with the new additional features being incorporated into our Enterprise and Plus tiers.
We would love to bring all the features of MagicSchool Plus to you and your colleagues. Request a quote to unlock all features, get detailed analytics and insights, and add exciting administrative controls and customizations for your school or district. Click here to request a quote now!
At the request of our users, we offer an individual subscriber tier, "MagicSchool Plus", in case your school isn’t ready to partner and get Enterprise. You can subscribe and unlock features instantly by clicking "Upgrade" on the sidebar in the app.
For school and district Enterprise licenses, we offer volume-based discounts, additional features listed on the chart above, unparalleled customer support, and much more. Request a quote now!
For individual subscribers to MagicSchool Plus, pricing is as follows: Billed Monthly: $12.99 per month. Billed Yearly (36% discount): $8.33 per month ($99.96 yearly).
Many AI tools aren’t built with the needs of teachers and students in mind and are priced beyond their reach, with Microsoft Copilot being priced at $25 a month and ChatGPT Plus priced at $20 per month. In addition, both are not customized for education and do not provide safe student access. Our pricing meets the needs of school and district budgets. Our yearly cost is over 50% lower than both Microsoft Copilot and ChatGPT Plus with more value including student usage.
Great question! We’re happy to give you a prorated refund of your purchase price for our individual subscriber model if your school signs on. Just make sure you sign up with your school e-mail address and let us know.
For MagicSchool users on the free platform, limits will change dynamically based on overall usage to ensure smooth access for our premium users. The calculation we use intends for the majority of users not to hit a generation limit until nearing the end of the month and power users to be limited sooner. Limits will reset monthly and users will get a warning as they’re getting close to their limit.
For MagicSchool Plus and MagicSchool Enterprise users, you will have unlimited* access.
*Only the top .1% of users will be capped to prevent account sharing and other extreme cases.
Since usage limits change dynamically based on total platform usage, we’re not able to share that with you precisely (but you will get a warning when you're getting close as described above). If you love MagicSchool, let your school administration know so they can join the AI Innovators Program or if your school isn’t ready, subscribe to MagicSchool Plus.

MagicSchool’s tools draw from different AI models, each with its own knowledge base and update cycle. Some tools, such as our Research Assistant, can search the web to provide the most current information available.
Other tools rely on Large Language Models (LLMs) whose data was last updated within the past year and a half. Because we use a variety of models and continue testing new ones, the information available through MagicSchool is always evolving to stay as accurate and relevant as possible.
