Packback
PaidAI-supported writing and discussion platform for courses
What is Packback?
Packback is a learning platform for higher education and K-12 that uses instructional AI to coach students as they write and discuss, and grades the process rather than only the final paper. Instructors get insight into originality without relying on accusations of AI cheating.
Students post in discussion threads and draft papers in a writing lab, receiving AI feedback on their writing as they go. Faculty can set up AI-integrated assignments with process rubrics, and an Insights and Originality view shows how a piece of work developed over time.
Packback integrates with learning management systems through LTI and publishes resources on AI policy for schools and on its own pedagogy research. Access is arranged through institutions and instructors.
