Common Planner
Common Planner is a web-based collaborative lesson planner for teachers, schools, and districts. Teachers can create lesson and unit plans, organize classes, and reuse planbooks and lessons across school years. They can search for standards, attach them to units, and track which standards have been taught. Shared planbooks support co-planning, sharing plans with administrators, and borrowing plans from other teachers. School leaders can review planning status, standards coverage, and pacing, then comment on lesson plans. The school product page describes AI-assisted insights for identifying missing standards, pacing issues, or instructional gaps. Basic for Teachers includes an AI-powered lesson assistant, daily, weekly, and monthly planning, up to 50 Google Classroom posts, and file uploads from a computer or supported storage services. Pro includes unlimited Classroom posts, unit planning, automatic standards tracking, and up to five collaborators. The Basic plan is free forever; Pro is listed at $5.59 a month, with a one-payment amount of 71.88 USD. The Schools plan includes school-wide templates, membership management, staff training, and ongoing support. There is no app, but the service works through a browser on tablets and smartphones.
