Teachers juggle a million tasks – planning, instruction, feedback, grading, and everything in between. Brisk was designed to lighten that load, giving you practical, classroom-ready support powered by AI.
But with so many possibilities inside Brisk, we wanted to build a simple, go-to guide to help educators dive in right away. That’s why we created the Getting Started with Brisk Guide.
What is Brisk?
Brisk is an AI-powered education platform that supports teachers, students, and schools at every stage of learning – from planning and instruction to feedback and student practice. It’s made up of three connected experiences:
- Brisk Extension: Brings in-the-moment support directly into Docs, Slides, Word, PowerPoint, YouTube, PDFs, web articles, and more. Create lessons, adjust reading levels, differentiate, or give feedback without leaving your workflow.
- Brisk Next: Your AI hub on the web. Upload files, type in prompts, filter by standards, bundle resources, and assign activities – all in one place.
- Brisk Boost: A safe space where students engage with AI in teacher-assigned activities. They get instant support and feedback while you guide the experience.
Together, these form the full Brisk experience – helping educators personalize instruction, save time, and keep learning moving forward.
Why we built the guide
We designed the Getting Started with Brisk Guide as your quick-start map. It gives you the essential steps to set up Brisk, explore its core tools, and see classroom impact right away – no steep learning curve required.
What’s inside
The guide walks you through:
- Creating your Brisk account with your Google or Microsoft login.

- Diving into educator-specific activities designed for your context, whether you teach elementary, middle school, high school, or university students.
- Trying Brisk Boost for safe, student-facing AI activities with you guiding the process.
Why it matters
The Getting Started guide ensures you can set up Brisk in minutes and start using it with confidence. It’s built for educators who want impact right away – whether that’s adjusting a text’s reading level, creating a lesson plan, generating engaging podcasts or assigning student activities.
