For Schools

Give every teacher an AI detector, without an institutional contract.

About $10 per teacher per month for 1,000 checks. No enterprise-sales process, no procurement cycle, and FERPA-conscious by default — so your academic-integrity response can move at classroom speed, not budget speed.

Why schools choose ShaamAI

No enterprise contract required

Teachers subscribe to Ultra individually, or a department puts a shared card on $9.99/teacher/month. Either way, no procurement cycle and no sales call.

FERPA-aware by default

Student essays are analyzed over HTTPS and discarded — not stored in our database, not used for training, not shared with third parties. Only aggregate metadata is retained.

Sentence-level detail for fair conversations

Every report highlights the exact sentences that triggered AI signals. Teachers can have a specific, evidence-based academic integrity conversation — not just show a number.

A fair workflow for every suspect essay

  1. 1

    Paste or upload the essay

    Teachers paste directly or upload .docx / .pdf / .txt. Pro and Ultra support batch uploads when reviewing a whole class at once.

  2. 2

    Review the overall score + sentence highlights

    The aggregate score is the headline; the sentence-level detail is the evidence. Teachers note which specific sections were flagged.

  3. 3

    Compare to known student work

    Pull up previous assignments. Does the voice match? Did the vocabulary jump? Side-by-side comparison is one of the most reliable signals available.

  4. 4

    Have a conversation, not an accusation

    Teachers ask the student to walk through their argument and show earlier drafts. A high score warrants a conversation — never a decision on its own.

What ShaamAI is — and isn’t

We would rather be useful to your teachers than oversell what the tool can do.

What ShaamAI is

  • • An affordable department-level AI detection option
  • • Evidence-based support for academic-integrity conversations
  • • A standalone web app — no IT deployment, no LMS integration work
  • • FERPA-conscious by default — student text is never stored

What ShaamAI isn’t

  • • An LMS integration — we don’t plug into Canvas, Schoology, or Google Classroom
  • • A replacement for Turnitin’s plagiarism checker
  • • An institutionally contracted platform — no enterprise sales, no district dashboard
  • • 100% accurate — no detector is, and we will always be honest about that

School FAQ

Can a school district buy ShaamAI Ultra in bulk?

Not through a formal enterprise contract — we keep pricing simple at $9.99/mo per seat for Ultra (1,000 checks). Most departments that want coverage for a full team either let each teacher subscribe individually and reimburse, or put the whole department on a single shared billing card. Both work; neither requires a procurement cycle. See pricing for specifics.

Do you offer educational discounts or institutional billing?

Honestly, not currently. Ultra is already priced at $9.99/mo for 1,000 checks — it is built to be affordable for an individual educator without needing a school discount program. We would rather keep the pricing transparent than run a discount tier that only bigger districts would qualify for.

Is this FERPA-compliant?

ShaamAI is designed to be FERPA-conscious: student text is transmitted over HTTPS for the duration of each analysis request and is never saved to our database. We do not use student writing to train models and never share it with third parties. Only anonymous metadata (word count, score, confidence) is retained. Before adopting any detection tool institutionally, confirm compliance with your school or district privacy policies.

Can it replace Turnitin at my school?

No. Turnitin is primarily a plagiarism checker with an AI-detection module, integrated at the LMS level. ShaamAI is standalone and focused only on AI-generation detection — with sentence-level detail that Turnitin does not surface the same way. Most teachers use ShaamAI alongside Turnitin, not instead of it. See our teacher-focused page for how classroom use looks day to day.

How does this compare to Copyleaks for schools?

Copyleaks is an enterprise-contracted platform with an LMS integration story — longer sales cycle, higher price point, more surface area. ShaamAI is deliberately narrower: a standalone web tool, $9.99/teacher/month, sentence-level AI detection with no contract. If you want an LMS-integrated enterprise platform, Copyleaks may be the better fit. If you want teachers to self-serve an AI detector this week, ShaamAI is built for that.

Can administrators see teachers’ detection reports?

No. ShaamAI is a per-teacher account; there is no administrator dashboard, no cross-teacher reporting, and no institutional roll-up. Each teacher’s checks are private to that account. That is intentional — academic integrity conversations should happen between teacher and student, not via a district dashboard.
