Lesson content
Stop downloading and re-uploading lesson files.
Open what you planned in Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive straight onto the whiteboard, from inside the classroom, and work on it together.
Integrations
Keep your tools. Teach in a real classroom.
Pencil Spaces connects to the software you already run on. Tutor management platforms, school LMSs, cloud drives and your own code. Classrooms, accounts and lesson files show up where tutors, teachers and students already work, so nobody copies links, rosters or files between tools.
Developers and automation
Build Pencil Spaces into your own product.
Use the REST API and webhooks, build apps that run inside a Space, or create Spaces from your other apps with Zapier.
Schools and LMS
Stop creating class accounts by hand.
Single sign-on, rostering and LMS launches put teachers and students in the right Space, already signed in, from the systems your school already runs.
