Grape
Handwriting notes for teachers

Write it by hand. Ask it like text.

Write lessons and observations by hand on pages of ruled paper and Grape reads the words off the page on the device itself, so a page of a year of lesson plans in your own hand turns up in search like any typed note and the agent can quote it.
Lined, grid, dotted, graph or plain pages, A4 or Letter, up to a hundred of them
Handwriting read into text on the device, so pages are searchable and the agent can read them
Import a PDF to write over it, export the notebook as one
The same pages open on the desk, where you can keep writing on them

Paper that behaves like paper

Pen, highlighter, eraser, shapes and text boxes on pages that stack the way a notebook does.

Your handwriting, searchable

The words are read off the page on the device itself, and nothing leaves it to do so.

The agent reads your pages

Ask what the lecture said on Tuesday and the answer comes from the ink.

Write on the slides

Import a PDF and annotate it page by page, then export the lot back out as one.

Page forty is a tap away

A navigator shows the whole notebook as thumbnails, with a page added or removed from there.

Open the notebook at the desk

The pages sync like any note and open in the desktop app, where you can add to them.
What changes

Three things off the Sunday list

Not a feature tour. The three jobs that take less of the weekend once your plans can answer back.
The lesson plan from last year is in a folder called Misc.

Find last year in seconds

Search the way you remember the lesson and get the plan back, along with the notes you left about how it went.
Writing the quiz takes longer than teaching the lesson did.

Make the quiz from the lesson you taught

Generate questions and flashcards straight from your own material instead of writing them from a blank page.
The observation stays in your head until report season, when it is gone.

Keep observations without extra admin

Talk into your phone between classes and read the transcript back when you are writing reports.
A normal term

What that looks like for teachers

Three moments in the year where the app earns its keep.
01

Sunday planning

Pull up the unit folder, adjust last year, and note what you are changing and why.
02

During the week

Record two minutes after a lesson while you still remember what fell flat.
03

Report season

Ask your notes what you recorded about a class over a term and write from that.
