Brisk AI for Educators and Students

Brisk (Brisk Labs Co.) is an AI platform for K-12 educators based in San Francisco, California, founded by Arman Jaffer. It started as a Chrome extension of around 40 AI tools for teachers and students and now offers a browser extension, a web platform and student-facing activities for schools and districts.

Teachers use it to create lesson plans, quizzes and presentations, adapt materials to different levels in 50+ languages, and give feedback on student writing in Google Docs. Brisk Boost provides student activities, and a writing inspector reviews how a student's work was produced. Schools and districts can adopt it centrally with an IT approval packet and integrations with Google and Microsoft.

International schools in Vietnam can use it to prepare differentiated lessons and feedback for English-language classes. School groups can adopt it centrally with IT review. Teacher training programmes can use it to demonstrate AI-supported lesson design.

Teachers spend less time on lesson materials, feedback and differentiation. Schools can adopt the platform centrally, with an IT approval packet on request. The company reports a 95 percent Common Sense Privacy Rating and ESSA Tier 3 evidence. Content can be changed to different levels in more than 50 languages, which helps mixed-ability and multilingual classes.

Teachers and districts are adopting AI assistants to reduce workload while keeping educators in control of content. As Vietnam introduces AI lessons across general education from 2026-2027, international and private schools in the region are looking for tools that help teachers use AI safely in lessons and feedback.
