The AI revolution is among us and the only way to keep up with it is to get ahead, which is why we’re pleased to share the launch of the latest features to Skolup, Skolon’s comprehensive AI tool designed and nurtured specifically for the unique environment of the classroom.

Skolup can be used by all; whether you are a teacher looking to reclaim your planning time or a pupil looking for a personalised study buddy, Skolup makes AI a natural, seamless part of everyday school life.

What’s NEW!?

Web Search

With our brand-new Web Search feature, Skolup can now browse the live internet.

This benefits you as an educator as you can now cross-reference AI responses with live sources to build essential information literacy and find the latest educational resources without leaving the platform.

Additional benefits of Web Search include that it bypasses the ‘cutoff’, which refers to the data it was trained on. For example, if an AI’s training ended in 2024, it wouldn’t have the up-to-date information on an event that happened in 2025, whereas Web Search will allow you to fact check and update in real time.

Similarly, Web Search helps to eliminate hallucinations, which AI is prone to because it enables the introduction of real-world data, yielding a more accurate outcome for users.

Custom chatbots

Still exploring the magic of AI? Our Custom Chatbots allow you to create tailored AI assistants for specific subjects or classroom roles. Whether it’s a “History Tutor from the 1700s” or a “Coding Coach,” these bots provide a focused, safe environment for students to interact with technology.

Feature
