Almanack: AI that adapts your curriculum instead of replacing it

Almanack positions itself as the implementation layer for classroom curricula. Rather than generating generic lessons from a blank prompt, it starts from the curriculum and standards you actually teach and helps you adapt them — adjusting reading levels, swapping topics for student interests, restructuring pacing around your real school calendar — while keeping units aligned to the same standards. That standards-first approach is what separates it from general-purpose chatbots that produce plausible but unanchored lesson content.

The day-to-day toolkit covers the full prep cycle: long-range and unit planning, individual lesson plans, worksheets, quizzes, educational games, and standards-aligned assessments that connect back to the curriculum structure and gradebook. Differentiation is a first-class feature — one lesson can be generated in below-grade, above-grade, ELL, and IEP-accommodated versions simultaneously. Almanack connects with Google Workspace, Microsoft tools, Clever, and ClassLink, and can push activities to platforms teachers already use, including Kahoot, Quizlet, and Blooket. A permanent free plan covers core lesson planning and resource creation; Pro (with a 2-week free trial, no credit card) unlocks unlimited access to every resource type, with team and school plans above that.
