Getting started

Quick start for teachers

Your first ten minutes: read the room, send an assignment, and know where flags land.

In your first ten minutes you can read how your class feels, send your first assignment, and know exactly where anything worrying will show up.

Your first ten minutes

  1. Read Today

    The first sentence tells you how the room is, in words. Under it you will see who has checked in today, the class weather, and anyone worth a closer look.

  2. Send a first assignment

    Open Assignments, choose New assignment, pick a topic such as Stress management, and choose Draft them for me. Read the questions, change anything, and send. The full guide.

  3. Know where flags land

    High flags are emailed to you straight away and pinned to the top of Responses. Medium ones wait in Responses and come in your daily digest. How flags work.

  4. Look at one student

    Click any student to open their profile: 30 days of moods, what stands out in their check-ins, and their recent assignments.

Flags are a prompt to look

Flags come from an AI review and are not a clinical assessment. Always follow your school's safeguarding policy, and contact emergency services if a student may be in immediate danger.

A good weekly rhythm

  • Each morning, skim Today. It takes a minute and updates as students check in.
  • Once or twice a week, send a short assignment. Spreading deadlines out usually gets more answers.
  • Whenever a flag arrives, read it in context in Responses, follow up, and mark it as reviewed with a short note.
  • On Fridays, look at Mood for the week as a whole, and nudge anyone who has gone quiet.
