What’s Kira?

An intro to what Kira is and how it can save you time as a teacher.

Updated over a week ago

Kira is an AI-powered teaching platform that helps K–12 educators build lessons, support students, and save time on routine tasks—across subjects, grade levels, and classroom settings.

Originally focused on computer science, Kira now supports multiple subjects and works in in-person, hybrid, and remote environments. It can be used alongside your existing tools or as a standalone platform.


Key Features

Curriculum Generation

Build engaging lessons, activities, assessments, or full courses using templates or custom content. You can build entire courses for your students in just a few minutes. Save time, so you can focus on supporting your students.

Lessons and assessments can be built to align to state or national standards, with a flexible gradebook to track progress over time.
