Khan Academy's AI tutor and teaching assistant
Reviewed by the the30top research team · Last reviewed 2026-10-27
Overview
Khanmigo is the AI tutor and teaching assistant from the nonprofit Khan Academy, tied to its content library across math, science, humanities and coding. It coaches learners with questions rather than direct answers, and gives teachers tools for lesson plans, rubrics, quiz questions and exit tickets. Learner access costs $4 a month or $44 a year and requires a parent or adult account in the United States, and teachers cannot give students access outside a school or district deal.
Our verdict
One of the most carefully designed AI tutors for younger learners, at a price almost any family can pay. The US-only learner access and the district gate for classrooms limit who can actually use it.
Best for
Families and schools that want a guided tutor tied to Khan Academy's lessons.
Avoid if
You are outside the United States and need learner access without a school deal.
Pros
- Pedagogy built around guiding, not answer-giving
- Low learner price from a trusted nonprofit
- Free teacher tools and parent chat history access
Cons
- Learner access needs an adult 18+ with a US billing address
- Teachers cannot grant student access outside district deals
- No compliance certifications are listed on the site
