Bottom line: Eduaide’s free plan gives a teacher 24 AI generation credits a month — enough for up to 8 lesson plans or other resources — with no credit card, and exports are included free. Pro is cheap at $5.99 a month, but plenty of teachers will never need it: the free cap, not missing features, is the main reason to upgrade.
Eduaide is a workspace for teachers who build the materials they teach from. Instead of a blank chatbot prompt, you pick what to make — a lesson plan in one of 11 formats (including 5E and Backward Design), a worksheet, a graphic organizer, a classroom game, or an assessment — and revise the draft inside Eduaide before exporting it. Plans can be aligned to a standard. It is teacher-only: no student accounts, no student-facing tools. This review is based on Eduaide’s published plan details, checked October 26, 2026.
What’s actually free on Eduaide?
Eduaide’s own site describes the free plan as:
- $0, with no credit card required
- 24 generation credits a month — enough for up to 8 lesson plans or other resources
- Generating materials is included
- Evaluating a lesson plan or other written resource is included
- Exporting your work is included: lesson plans, worksheets, and assessments export to Google Docs or Microsoft Word, and assessments also export to Google Forms
That export point matters: many free tiers let you generate content, then charge to get it out in a usable format; Eduaide does not. Pro adds unlimited generations, differentiation, one-step application of evaluator revisions, document chat with Erasmus (an AI assistant that reads your open document), AI image generation, and YouTube transcript import.
How much does Eduaide Pro cost?
Pro costs $5.99 a month or $49.99 a year for one teacher, and removes the monthly generation limit. School and district licensing is custom-priced on request. At that price, the upgrade decision is simple arithmetic: if 24 credits a month regularly runs out mid-planning, Pro is one of the cheapest teacher-AI subscriptions available; if it doesn’t, stay free.
Pros and cons of the free plan
Pros
- 24 credits a month is a real allowance — up to 8 finished resources, not a one-off trial
- No credit card required to start
- Exports to Google Docs, Word, and Google Forms are free
- Structured formats (5E, Backward Design, and 9 other plan formats) beat blank-page prompting
- No student accounts and no student data: Eduaide says it is FERPA- and COPPA-compliant and does not ask for student information
Cons
- 24 credits a month runs out fast in a heavy planning week or across several class preps
- Differentiation — a headline need for many teachers — is Pro-only
- Document chat (Erasmus), AI images, and YouTube transcript import are Pro-only
- Teacher-only means students get no direct AI practice tools here
Who is Eduaide’s free plan best for?
K-12 teachers who plan a handful of key lessons a week and want them in a proper instructional format, plus teachers who want an evaluator pass over a draft lesson before teaching it. If you need an in-browser helper inside Google Docs instead, our Brisk Teaching review covers that approach, and our MagicSchool review covers the broader 80+ tool platform.
