An AI-powered Socratic tutor and teaching assistant by Khan Academy that guides students through learning challenges without simply giving away the answers.
Khanmigo, developed by the nonprofit Khan Academy, is a pioneering AI tool designed to serve as both a personal tutor for students and a high-efficiency teaching assistant for educators. Unlike generic AI models that might provide direct answers, Khanmigo is ethically designed to guide learners through the process of discovery, asking probing questions and encouraging critical thinking across subjects like math, science, coding, and history. For students, it provides on-demand support that mimics a human tutor's patience and insight. For teachers, Khanmigo acts as a powerful productivity partner, capable of generating standards-aligned lesson plans, rubrics, quiz questions, and exit tickets in minutes rather than hours. It also facilitates specialized instruction through its unique 'Writing Coach' feature, which offers real-time feedback on essay construction. Integrated with Khan Academy’s world-class library, Khanmigo ensures that students stay on track with academic goals while providing parents and districts with a safe, supervised environment for AI-enhanced learning.
