Plan with Compass

Stuck on the next two weeks? Ask for a sequence.

It drafts dated lessons from your timetable and what you’ve logged, each with a focus, timed activities and curriculum links.
  • Assumptions in writing. Plus what it left for later, and why.
  • You decide. Add it, keep it as notes, or dismiss it.

AI can be wrong, sometimes confidently. Every draft is yours to change or throw out.

Rescheduling

When the week changes, the plan moves with it.

Drag a bumped lesson to the next open period, and its curriculum links go with it. Your coverage keeps up on its own.
