One whiteboard, everywhere a student is stuck
A real drawing canvas built into every lesson, every homework answer and every question a student sends — not a separate tool with its own login and its own subscription.
Put the problem on the board
Pull a question from ClassQuill's bank or your own and it's on the canvas as text, ready to write over. It's added from the tutor's board assistant, and no AI writes it.
- Built in, not bolted onEvery lesson, every homework answer and every question a student sends has a real drawing canvas attached — the same one, everywhere — so there's no separate whiteboard app to open, no extra login, and nothing to export and re-attach.
Work it out together
Tutor and student share one canvas, with the maths tools a lesson actually needs.
- Draw together, in real timeIn a live lesson, tutor and student draw on the same board at once — strokes and cursors sync as they're made. Work through a graph or a proof together instead of one person describing it and the other trying to picture it.
The board doesn't get wiped
Each student has a workbook the tutor keeps, so last month's diagram is still there when it comes up again.
Built for a stylus, helped by AI
The same canvas on an iPad, and an AI copilot that draws onto it. The copilot is part of the AI add-on and is off during exams.
- Feels native on an iPadBuilt for a stylus, not just a mouse — Apple Pencil's side double-tap switches tools, and palm rejection means resting a hand on the screen doesn't drag a stray line across the page.
- AI sketches it, not just explains itAsk the AI copilot for a diagram, a table or a worked example and it draws it straight onto the board — text, table, chart or image — instead of a paragraph you have to turn into a picture yourself. It's switched off automatically the moment a student is sitting an exam, and nothing it previews ever saves or broadcasts to anyone else on the board.
Common questions
Is this a different whiteboard from the one in live lessons?
No — one canvas, several doors into it. The same engine sits behind the live-session board, a tutor's persistent per-student workbook, a floating scratchpad usable outside a session, and a whiteboard sent inline in a chat message. Learn a stroke and colour palette once, and it's the same everywhere.
When a student sends a question to their tutor, does the tutor's reply appear live?
No, and that's deliberate. A student stuck mid-practice sends their working with one tap — it arrives with their draft answer and a copy of their whiteboard attached. The tutor draws their reply on that copy in their own time; the student sees it next time they open the thread, not live as it's being drawn. Live, side-by-side drawing is for a scheduled lesson; this async flow is built to be fast, not synchronous.
