EduEval

EduEval is a K–12 teacher-evaluation tool for principals and school administrators. It is best suited to teams that want rubric-based feedback, mobile note-taking, and a path from walkthroughs to formal evaluations. Its strengths are a flexible rubric workflow and evaluator-reviewed AI drafts; its free plan is too limited for regular school-wide use.

Overview

EduEval connects classroom observation notes to feedback organized around Danielson, Marzano, or a district’s own rubric. Evaluators can adjust rubric domains, indicators, and performance levels, then review and edit AI-drafted feedback before release. That makes it a focused choice for schools seeking consistency across evaluations while keeping the final judgment with the evaluator.

The workflow covers informal walkthroughs and formal summative evaluations. Notes can be taken on a tablet or smartphone and sync automatically to the desktop dashboard. Reports can be emailed as PDF attachments, while threaded comments support coaching conversations after an observation. Those pieces make EduEval useful across the observation and follow-up cycle, though the described sharing options center on email and PDFs.

Key features

Rubrics and feedback

Support for Danielson and Marzano provides established frameworks, while configurable district rubrics let schools use their own domains, indicators, and performance levels. The AI workflow organizes notes, maps them to the selected rubric, and proposes feedback for review. This can make drafting more structured, but it does not remove the evaluator’s responsibility to check and edit the result.

Mobile observations and follow-up

Administrators can capture notes on a smartphone or tablet and continue on the desktop dashboard after automatic syncing. Email reports with PDF attachments and threaded comments give evaluators a way to share findings and continue coaching discussions. Paid School and Large School plans add school-wide analytics and audit logs, which are more relevant to teams coordinating evaluations across a building than to an individual evaluator.

Privacy and security

The maker says records are encrypted in transit and at rest, access is role-limited and audit-logged, and data is not sold. Its stated safeguards include SSL/TLS transmission encryption, AES-256 encryption at rest, security audits and penetration testing, optional multi-factor authentication, and backup and disaster recovery procedures. The maker also says schools retain ownership and control of records and that evaluations are not used to train public models.

Observation notes are sent to the AI provider to draft feedback, so schools should leave student names out of those notes. That is a meaningful workflow consideration for administrators handling sensitive classroom information, even with the stated privacy controls.

Pricing

EduEval has a free plan and paid plans starting at $290/year. There is no free trial. Annual and monthly billing are offered on paid plans, with the monthly rate costing more over a full year.

Plan	Price and limits	Best fit
Free	$0.00 USD, free forever; 1 administrator, 1 staff member, 5 observations per month, standard rubrics, and mobile access.	A single administrator evaluating one staff member occasionally. The five-observation monthly cap makes it a poor fit for routine school-wide use.
Individual	$290/year or $29/month billed monthly; 1 administrator, up to 15 staff, unlimited observations, 10 AI requests per day, AI-powered insights, and email sharing.	A principal or evaluator responsible for a small team who needs regular observations. It lifts the observation cap but limits AI analysis to 10 requests daily.
School	$790/year or $79/month billed monthly; up to 10 administrators, 60 staff, unlimited observations, 30 AI requests per day, school-wide analytics, and audit logs.	A school sharing evaluation work across administrators and needing school-wide reporting and audit logs.
Large School	$1,990/year or $199/month billed monthly; up to 25 administrators, 200 staff, unlimited observations, 100 AI requests per day, school-wide analytics, and audit logs.	A larger school that needs the higher staff and administrator capacity and larger daily AI allowance.

Individual gives up the multi-administrator capacity, school-wide analytics, and audit logs included with School and Large School. The higher tiers raise seat and daily AI limits while keeping observations unlimited; the right choice depends on how many people will evaluate and how often they need AI drafting.

Platforms

EduEval is available on Android, iOS, and the web. Mobile note-taking syncs to the desktop dashboard, supporting administrators who observe in classrooms and complete their work later at a desk.

Who it's for

EduEval suits K–12 principals and school administrators who already use a defined teacher-evaluation rubric and want one workflow for walkthrough notes, formal evaluations, draft feedback, and coaching follow-up. Individual is aimed at one evaluator serving up to 15 staff; School and Large School suit teams that need multiple administrator accounts, broader staff capacity, analytics, and audit logs.

It is less suitable for schools that cannot send observation notes to an AI provider, even with student names removed, or for buyers who need a larger free allowance. The maker offers onboarding support and a 15-minute walkthrough by contacting [email protected].

Pros and cons

Pros

• Danielson, Marzano, and configurable district rubrics support schools that need feedback tied to their evaluation framework.
• AI drafts remain editable before release, preserving an evaluator review step in the feedback process.
• Mobile note-taking syncs to the desktop dashboard, and email PDFs plus threaded comments support reporting and coaching follow-up.
• School and Large School include analytics and audit logs for teams coordinating evaluations.

Cons

• The free plan allows only one administrator, one staff member, and five observations per month, limiting its usefulness for sustained evaluation work.
• Notes go to an AI provider for drafting, so schools need to keep student names out and assess whether that workflow fits their privacy requirements.
• AI requests are capped daily on paid plans, from 10 on Individual to 100 on Large School.
• The described sharing workflow uses email and PDF attachments; schools seeking named external software integrations may find the workflow restrictive.

Alternatives

Education Walkthrough is worth considering for a smaller walkthrough program: its free Basic plan allows one school, five teachers, and 10 walkthroughs per month, with no analytics or collaboration, and it also offers a free trial.

Observation Partner is a web-based alternative with a free plan that provides 1,250 lifetime starter AI credits, a personal observation workspace, evidence capture, drafts, export, and progress tracking; choose it if that individual workspace and credit-based starting allowance suit your workflow.

Observation Copilot is another web-based option with a free Individuals plan for unlimited teachers, formal observations, and walkthroughs.

Zyqual may fit an individual teacher seeking a free web account with observation forms, lesson-plan creation, student IEP management, progress tracking, and a teaching strategy library.

eCOVE Observation Software is an alternative for organizations that need Android, iOS, macOS, web, and Windows support; its Advanced Editions are $99.00 per year per user/observer.

Teach Primary is a free tool and complementary resource toolkit for readers considering that option.

Classroom Mosaic is a paid alternative with a free trial and apps for Android, iOS, macOS, web, and Windows.

PowerSchool Behavior Support has custom pricing; contact PowerSchool for a demo.

Verdict

EduEval is a strong fit for K–12 administrators who want configurable rubric-based evaluations, mobile observation notes, and AI-assisted drafts that remain subject to human review. Its paid plans make the most sense when the school needs more than the free plan’s five monthly observations or needs multiple evaluators and school-wide oversight. Look elsewhere if the AI note-sharing workflow does not meet your privacy requirements or if you need a more generous free tier.
