Brisk Teaching

Brisk Teaching is a browser-extension AI assistant for teachers that adds lesson-planning, reading-level adjustment, quiz creation, and feedback tools directly inside Google Docs, Slides, Forms, and Classroom. Its defining trait is running in context rather than as a separate app, which minimizes copy-paste friction. A capable free tier makes it easy to adopt, while Pro and district plans add unlimited usage, advanced generators, batch feedback, and admin controls.

Brisk Teaching is a browser extension aimed at K-12 and higher-ed teachers who work primarily inside Google Workspace. Rather than sending users to a separate web app, it adds an AI sidebar to Google Docs, Slides, Forms, and Classroom (with growing Microsoft Word support), so tasks like leveling an article, generating a quiz from a source, or drafting rubric-based feedback happen in context. It also includes an "Inspect Writing" replay that visualizes how a document was written, which some teachers use as a signal in conversations about AI-assisted work. The free tier covers a large set of core tools and is the main draw for individual teachers; a paid Pro tier and school/district plans unlock unlimited usage, more advanced generators (state and standardized-test practice, UDL lesson plans, standards alignment), batch feedback, and admin dashboards. Brisk positions itself against other teacher-AI suites like MagicSchool and SchoolAI, with its main differentiator being the in-document, extension-first workflow. Because it operates as a browser extension with access to documents, districts should review it through their normal data-privacy and edtech-approval process. For teachers already living in Google Docs, the low-friction workflow is the core appeal; those who prefer a standalone dashboard or need deep LMS integration beyond Google Classroom may find it less complete.
