ChimeEdu’s AI drafting turns a short brief — plus any source files you upload — into structured study guide sections. It’s the fastest way to get a first draft on the page; the shaping and checking are still yours.
AI drafting is available on Premium accounts (and Administrator / Super Administrator accounts). It is powered by Claude.

Drafting a guide

1

Open a study guide and choose Generate with AI

The button sits with the other actions on the study guide page. On plans without access it appears as AI (Premium).
2

Describe what you want

Write a brief in the prompt box — for example, “A study guide on photosynthesis for 9th grade, covering the reaction, limiting factors, and required practicals.” There are also starter suggestions to work from: chapter summary, review guide, key concepts, practice questions, and compare & contrast.
3

Add source material (optional)

Upload notes, curriculum documents, or reading for the AI to work from — up to 50,000 characters per file and 500,000 characters across all files. You can also paste source text directly into the prompt.
4

Choose how it lands

Decide whether the generated content should be added to what’s already in the guide or replace it, then generate. Sections stream in live so you can watch the draft build.
5

Refine

Not quite right? Send a follow-up instruction to adjust the draft, or regenerate an individual section on its own without touching the rest.
6

Edit, then publish

Read the draft properly and edit it with the normal block editor. When you’re happy, publish the guide to make it available to your linked classrooms.

What you get back

A flat sequence of heading-and-paragraph sections — typically three to six — added into your guide as ordinary blocks. From there they behave like anything else you’ve written: editable, reorderable, and mixable with images, videos, callouts, and tables.
Check the draft before you rely on it. The AI can generate content from your prompt alone, so it is not limited to the material you upload and it can state things that are wrong or that you didn’t intend to teach. Treat every draft as a starting point to verify, not a finished resource.

Two things to know about saving

  • There is no pending-draft step. Generated sections are saved into the guide as they complete — there’s no separate inbox of suggestions to accept or dismiss one by one. If you don’t want what you got, edit or delete the blocks, or regenerate.
  • Publishing is still a deliberate action. Generating never publishes a guide. But if the guide is already published and linked to a classroom, new AI content is visible to students as soon as it saves. Draft in an unpublished guide when you want to review first.

Usage limits

Ten generations per hour, per account. Follow-up refinements and section regenerations count toward the same allowance. Your remaining quota is shown in the AI panel, and it resets on a rolling hourly basis.

Frequently asked

ChimeEdu doesn’t store what you submit — only usage metadata (model, token counts, success or failure) is logged. The generated output is stored, because it’s saved into your guide.
No. Study guides are the only place AI authoring is available — quizzes, fill-in-the-blank activities, and assessments are authored manually.
Yes, entirely. AI drafting is optional and the block editor does everything on its own.
