Creader for Writing Centers

The AI coach that asks, never ghostwrites.

Live, draft-aware feedback for college writers. AI that coaches like a writing-center consultant, never drafts the essay.

Built for writing-center directors, English department chairs, and freshman composition coordinators running a 1:1 coaching workflow at scale.

Built on the same writing coach novelists use to finish books.

I can finally watch a whole class draft at once and know which three students need me, instead of reading twenty pieces on Sunday night and guessing which ones the AI wrote.

The Coach Mode difference

“Write my thesis for me.” We refuse.

Coach Mode is enforced on the server, not the client, and every attempt to bypass it shows up on the consultant's dashboard instead of going through. Same student ask, very different response.

ChatGPT

"Sure! Here's a stronger thesis for you: 'In this essay I will argue that climate policy must balance equity and efficiency…'"

Writes the answer.

Coach Mode

"Your thesis names two values but not the tension between them. What would have to be true for equity and efficiency to actually conflict, and which side does your evidence lean?"

Asks the better question.

Why not ChatGPT EDU? OpenAI's education tier solves procurement, not ghostwriting — the model still drafts prose when asked, because that's the product. Coach Mode is the product. Server side, not a setting. Read the full data & AI policy →

Built on Creader

The same writing coach novelists use to finish books.

Creader for Writing Centers isn't an education product retrofitted with AI. It's the classroom layer of a writing platform built for long-form work: argument structure, continuity, voice, evidence. Everything Guardian catches in a student essay, it catches because adult novelists have been using the same engine on book-length drafts.

Institutional drafts are isolated from consumer data.

That depth is the moat. Generic edtech can ship a grammar checker. They can't ship a coach that tracks how a student's thesis evolves across a fifteen-page draft.

Internal testing is underway and we're opening seats to writing-center directors and freshman composition coordinators one section at a time. Tell us a bit about your context and we'll get back to you as soon as your section fits the current cohort.

What directors, faculty, and IT ask first.

  • Is this a gradebook or LMS?

    No. Creader for Writing Centers is a writing-coaching layer. It does not replace your gradebook, rubric system, or assignment submission flow. Coaches and faculty grade outside Creader.

  • Can students bypass Coach Mode by prompting cleverly?

    Coach Mode is enforced server-side, not in the UI. Prompt-injection attempts are rejected before the model sees them, and the AI returns a coach-style nudge instead.

  • Do you train models on student writing?

    No. Student writing is sent to OpenAI / Anthropic for inference only and is never used for training. We do not send it to advertising or analytics providers.

  • How do you handle FERPA and student records?

    Our pilot cohort is college writing centers, where students are adult learners. Drafts produced in an institutional section are educational records under FERPA: institution-scoped access, no third-party disclosure without authorization, FERPA addendum on request. COPPA does not apply to this cohort (18+). See the Security page for the full policy.

  • How do students join?

    A coach or instructor creates a section and shares a 6-character code or QR. Students sign up with email. No SSO, LTI, or LMS integration required for v1.
