Kami turns any classroom document into an interactive workspace where students can write, type, draw, and speak their thinking directly onto the page.

Overview

Kami is a digital classroom platform built around document annotation. Teachers distribute PDFs, worksheets, and images through Google Classroom or Drive, and students mark them up with pens, text boxes, highlights, stickers, and voice or video comments — no printing required. Accessibility is central to its design: text-to-speech reads documents aloud, OCR converts scanned pages and handwriting into selectable text, and dyslexia-friendly fonts and screen-reader support keep materials open to every learner. The assignment workflow lets teachers set work, watch progress live as students edit, and return feedback on the same document, collapsing the usual cycle of print, collect, mark, and redistribute. Machine-learning features power its handwriting recognition and reading supports, and newer AI-assisted tools help teachers prepare and differentiate materials faster. Because Kami lives inside the Google ecosystem that schools already trust, adoption asks little of IT departments and even less of students.

Key Features

  • Rich annotation toolkit: pen, text, highlights, shapes, stickers, and media comments
  • Voice and video comments that capture student thinking beyond written answers
  • OCR and text-to-speech for accessible reading of scanned and handwritten documents
  • Google Classroom and Drive integration with live progress tracking

Pricing

Kami is free for individual teachers and students with the core annotation toolkit. Teacher and school plans unlock advanced features, larger roster support, and administration tools, with district pricing available for wider rollouts.

Who Is It For

K-12 classrooms working in Google environments that want paper-free workflows without sacrificing the markup, feedback, and accessibility that good teaching requires. It suits teachers whose students show understanding in different ways — drawing, speaking, writing — and schools serving learners who need reading and writing supports built into everyday materials rather than bolted on afterwards. Special education teams value its accessibility depth, and one-to-one device programs gain a shared document workspace that works the same way in every classroom.
