For the studying, not the shortcutting.
LADLE at $20/mo isn’t optimized to write your paper. It’s optimized to explain, quiz, and push back — the pattern that separates studying from copying. Same product for teachers.
Understand the concept, then check it
Ask for an explanation, then ask LADLE to quiz you on it. Retention beats copying.
Read the paper, argue the paper
Drop a PDF, get the argument in your own words, ask for the steelman of the opposing view.
Study help without an integrity issue
The line is: use LADLE to learn, not to author work you submit as yours. Follow your institution's policy.
Standards-aligned lesson plans
Give the standard, the grade, and the length. Get a plan with objective, hook, assessment, and differentiation.
Rubric-anchored feedback
Paste the rubric and student work. Get first-draft feedback grounded in the criteria — edit and send. Cuts grading without cutting the human loop.
Family letters in the languages your families read
Draft in English, translate into 40+ languages while preserving register.
Same price for now. Here’s why.
The $20/mo base has to hold across all subscribers for the meal math to work. A $10 student tier would either cut the meal donation or lose us money — and we’re not willing to trade either.
If $20/mo is genuinely a blocker while you’re a student, that’s a fair reason to wait. In the meantime, the demo at /demo gives you three free messages, no signup — often enough to check whether LADLE is a fit for a specific course.
Student verification with a discount is on our roadmap. It’s not shipping until we have a version of the discount that doesn’t cut the meal donation. Waitlist below to hear when it lands.
If you’re a school district or university.
We’ve worked out arrangements for institutional deployments where the standard pricing wasn’t a fit. If you’re considering a school-wide or university-wide roll-out, email partners@ladle.chat. We won’t send you into an enterprise sales process.
One email when the student-verification tier is ready.
Try the demo before you decide.
Three free messages, no signup, ~5 minutes to know if LADLE fits your work.
