The Creation Assistant requires a Premium account (Administrator and Super Administrator accounts also have access). It is powered by Claude.
Opening the assistant
There are three ways in, all from anywhere in your teacher dashboard:- The Search & Create palette — press ⌘K (Ctrl+K on Windows) or click the dashboard search bar, then choose Ask ChimeEdu AI in the palette’s footer. Anything you had typed comes along as your starting prompt.
- “Create with AI?” — hover any Create a new… action in the palette (New Classroom, New Activity, and so on) and click the chip that appears.
- Start typing a request in the palette — the AI option is right there in the footer.
What it can create
Mind maps, Venn diagrams, line/scatter/pie graphs, and study guides aren’t drafted here yet — for study guides, use Study Guide drafting.
Grounding your draft in your material
The assistant works best when you give it something real to work from. In Context sources you can attach:- Reference files — PDFs and text formats (TXT, MD, CSV, JSON, HTML, XML), read in full.
- Google Drive — pick files or folders; Docs, Sheets, Slides, PDFs, and text files are read in full (folders one level deep). Anything unreadable is listed in the preview so you know exactly what was used.
- Your classrooms — link one or more classrooms and the assistant grounds the draft in their existing activities and material. The created content links to the first selected classroom.
Review before anything exists
Every generation ends in a preview: the type badge, title, item counts, sample content, the sources it used, and any warnings. From there:- Create it — the content is created for real and you get a link straight to it.
- Refine — go back, adjust your request, and redraft. One refinement per draft is free — it doesn’t use a generation.
- Discard — nothing is created, nothing is kept.
