Khanmigo is Khan Academy's AI-powered tutor, designed around a fundamental philosophy: AI should help students learn, not do the learning for them. Rather than providing direct answers, Khanmigo uses the Socratic method — asking guiding questions that lead students to understand concepts and arrive at solutions themselves. For students, Khanmigo works alongside any Khan Academy content: math, science, history, computing, arts, and test prep. When a student is stuck, they can ask Khanmigo for help, and the AI responds with a question or hint that prompts reflection rather than a shortcut. This approach builds genuine understanding rather than answer-copying. Beyond homework help, Khanmigo enables creative and exploratory learning: students can have guided debates with historical figures (Lincoln, Marie Curie), discuss ethical dilemmas, explore creative writing prompts, and practice for SAT and standardized tests with AI feedback. For teachers, Khanmigo provides a completely different toolkit: lesson plan generation aligned to curriculum standards, writing prompt creation, student progress insights, report card comment drafting, and parent communication assistance. It acts as an AI teaching assistant that handles the time-consuming planning work. Khanmigo operates with robust safety guardrails designed for the K-12 classroom, including content filtering, transparency to parents and teachers about student conversations, and age-appropriate interaction limits. Offered as an affordable monthly subscription through Khan Academy.
