The classroom your tutoring runs on — built for Vision Pro, iPad, MacBook Neo, iPhone, and AirPods. Not retrofitted. Not ported. Built.
Each Apple device gets the part of Pencil Spaces it's best at. Hover any one to skip ahead.
On Vision Pro, the whiteboard isn't a window — it surrounds you. Pin a graphing tool here. A reference equation there. A small group breakout right where you're looking. The classroom becomes the room.
Pin pages and tools anywhere in your space. Reference material here, student work there, the lesson video right where you look.
Native Persona support — teachers see students' real expressions and gaze, so questions don't get missed behind a headset.
Built natively with the visionOS SDK. Pinch to draw. Look to select. The tools fade so the lesson can take over.
Bring your MacBook Neo's whole screen into the same space — rich tools on Mac, infinite canvas in Vision Pro.
We rebuilt our ink engine for Apple Pencil Pro. Pressure curves tuned for handwriting. Hover preview on iPad Pro. Sub‑100 ms ink — below the threshold where writing stops feeling like writing.
Full PencilKit support. Variable line weight, shading on tilt, the squeeze gesture for the tool palette.
Students see exactly where their stroke lands before it lands. Small thing. Big difference for kids learning to write.
Students hand-write answers. Pencil Spaces auto-grades them — in math, English, and dozens of languages including non-Latin scripts.
Pencil Spaces alongside Notes, Calculator, or a Safari tab. The full power of iPadOS, used the way iPad was built for.
At $499 with education pricing, MacBook Neo is the most accessible Mac Apple has ever made — built for the way schools learn. Pencil Spaces opens in Safari. No download, no install. Sign in and teach.
Education pricing for K-12, university, and certified educators worldwide.
The same chip in iPhone 16 Pro — fanless, silent, AI-ready.
Battery that lasts a full school day on a single charge.
Silver, Blush, Citrus, Indigo — with color-matched keyboards.

Class starts in 5? It's already on the Lock Screen. Tomorrow's homework? It's a widget. A parent wants to peek in? One tap.
The countdown to class lives in the Dynamic Island. Late students get a tap, not an email.
Today's classes, tomorrow's prep, this week's assignments — glanceable from a locked phone.
Offered to every parent, every student, every educator. The most private way to sign in to anything.
A complication on the watch face. A Live Activity when class starts. A haptic tap when a student raises a hand. For tutors who walk between rooms, the watch is the quietest interface we ship.
The same Live Activity that lives in iPhone's Dynamic Island runs on Apple Watch. A countdown to class without lifting the phone.
A complication on Modular, Infograph, or Wayfinder shows the next class and how many students are already in the room. Tap to start.
Raise-hand gestures send a directional haptic. Over time you learn to feel which side of the room the question came from.
Built with WatchKit. Open the room from the watch face — your phone unlocks the canvas, the watch becomes the controller.
Spatial Audio puts students inside the room. Active Noise Cancellation gets them through tests. Conversation Awareness drops the volume the moment a teacher speaks. Tuned for every Apple ear — from AirPods 4 in a 4th-grade classroom to AirPods Max on a tutor's commute.
The teacher's voice comes from the front of the room, even as students turn their heads. Recordings sound like memory.
Test mode engages full ANC. The hallway disappears. The cafeteria disappears. The lesson stays.
The moment a teacher speaks, the volume drops and ANC eases. The moment they stop, the lesson swells back.
Students who use AirPods Pro as hearing aids get the same first-class experience as everyone else. Same toggle. Same room.
Hand off across Vision Pro, iPad, MacBook Neo, and iPhone. State syncs in under 100 ms across the whole Apple ecosystem. The whiteboard you started in Stage Manager is the one you finish in spatial computing.
Author the lesson. Embed PDFs, YouTube, graphing tools. Sequence the breakouts.
SAFARI 26.3Walk the room. Hand-write annotations. Watch all 12 students draw at once.

Co-watch a recorded lesson with synced playback and shared annotations. Office hours that aren't bound to a Zoom link.
Pencil Spaces ships native apps written in Swift and SwiftUI for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and Vision Pro. We use Apple's APIs the way Apple intended — not web shims, not bridges. Web on MacBook Neo because Safari is the right answer there. Native everywhere else.
The same engine Notes uses. Pressure, tilt, hover, squeeze — all of it. Sub-100 ms ink across iPad, Vision Pro, and Mac.
Class countdowns, attendance, recording state — rendered by the system, updated server-side without waking the app.

Coding tutors embed Swift Playgrounds in a board. The code runs on iPad. The whiteboard explains it. The future of CS tutoring.
We run Pencil Spaces' AI on Apple silicon wherever the model fits — handwriting recognition, distraction detection, summarization, translation. Less data leaves the device. Faster results. Lower cost for schools.
Run on the Neural Engine for math, science, and language responses. Even the messy ones.
Spot when a student gets idle or switches tabs — without a single byte of behavior data leaving the device.
End-of-class recap delivered to parents in dozens of languages, generated locally on the teacher's device.
Apple builds the most accessible computers on earth. Pencil Spaces uses every API they ship — and a few of our own. Education is the audience this matters for most.
Every panel, every button, every annotation has a VoiceOver label. Tested on iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, and visionOS.
System Live Captions transcribe the teacher in real time. We save the transcript inside the lesson recording, automatically.
Students with motor differences can drive the entire app with a single switch. Every interactive element is reachable, in order.
iPadOS 18 ships system-level eye tracking. We respect it. Students who can't use their hands can still draw with their gaze.
Students using Personal Voice or Live Speech can answer questions through Pencil Spaces in a voice they helped create.
Hearing-aid mode on AirPods Pro 2. Made-for-iPhone hearing aids. Live Listen with iPhone as a remote mic. All supported.

Push Pencil Spaces to a thousand iPads with one MDM profile. Zero-touch setup. SSO via Managed Apple IDs.
Teachers assign Pencil Spaces activities through Schoolwork. Lock student iPads to a single board with Apple Classroom.

Native APIs, not web shims. Drag a file from Files into a board. AirDrop a worksheet to the whole class.
“Pencil Spaces has been instrumental in our transformation — enabling us to serve more students and bring literacy to the children of Charlotte‑Mecklenburg.”
We share Apple's view: students are not products. Pencil Spaces was architected around data minimization from day one. We don't sell data, don't show ads, and don't train AI on student work without explicit consent.
On Apple devices we go further: on-device processing wherever Apple Intelligence supports it, Sign in with Apple offered everywhere, and Managed Apple IDs so schools control identity — not us.
Vision Pro, iPad, MacBook Neo, iPhone — or whatever's closest. Pencil Spaces is one tap away in Safari. No download. No signup wall.
