About us
Built by teachers, for teachers.
PlanbookEdu started as a simple idea in 2004: make lesson planning easier. Two decades later, it’s still doing exactly that — for teachers in all 50 states and dozens of countries.
50 states
Teachers use PlanbookEdu in every state, plus many countries around the world.
100M+ entries
Close to one hundred million lesson entries have been planned by our members.
2.5M sheets
Of paper saved — and counting — by planning online instead of on paper.
Two decades of listening to teachers
2004
PlanbookEdu launches as one of the first free, online lesson-planning tools — built by a teacher and a developer who thought planning deserved better than a paper grid.
2008
A ground-up rebuild adds sharing between teachers and administrators — the start of PlanbookEdu as a whole-school tool, not just a personal one.
Since then
File attachments, Common Core and custom standards, embeddable planbooks, and support for every device — each one requested by members and shipped because they asked.
