EduEval

EduEval helps K–12 principals turn classroom observations into teacher evaluation feedback aligned with a rubric. It supports Danielson, Marzano and custom district rubrics, including configurable domains, indicators and performance levels. Its AI workflow organizes observation notes, maps them to a rubric and drafts feedback for an evaluator to review and edit before release. Administrators can take notes on a smartphone or tablet and sync them to a desktop dashboard. Reports can be emailed with PDF attachments, while threaded comments support coaching conversations. The product is described for both informal walkthroughs and formal summative evaluations. EduEval offers a free plan limited to one administrator, one staff member and five observations monthly. Individual costs $290 a year, or $29/month billed monthly; School is $790 a year and Large School is $1,990 a year. Paid School and Large School plans include school-wide analytics and audit logs. Notes are sent to the AI provider for drafting, and the maker advises leaving student names out.

EduEval combines rubric-aligned feedback drafting with observation and sharing workflows. Consider the free-plan limits and the handling of notes sent for AI drafting when deciding whether it fits your school.

It suits K–12 principals and administrators conducting classroom walkthroughs or formal teacher evaluations. Schools using Danielson, Marzano or custom district rubrics can configure the evaluation framework.

Overview

EduEval is an evaluation tool for K–12 principals who want to turn classroom observations into feedback tied to a consistent rubric. Its strongest fit is a school with a defined evaluation process that needs both informal walkthroughs and formal summative reviews. The AI draft can speed the path from notes to feedback, while the evaluator retains the final edit.

Its flexible rubrics and mobile note-taking support a practical observation workflow, but the free plan’s five-observation monthly cap rules it out for sustained use at most schools. Schools should also weigh its AI drafting process against their policies for observation notes, since those notes are sent to the AI provider.

Key features

Rubrics and feedback

Danielson and Marzano support gives evaluators familiar frameworks, while custom district rubrics can be configured around local domains, indicators, and performance levels. That makes EduEval a better fit for schools that already evaluate against a rubric than for teams seeking a general-purpose observation notebook. The AI organizes notes around the rubric and drafts feedback for review and editing before release. This can reduce drafting work, but the evaluator still needs to check that the draft accurately reflects the observation.

Observation and coaching

Administrators can take notes on a smartphone or tablet and have them sync to the desktop dashboard. This keeps the observation workflow usable away from a desk. Email sharing with PDF attachments supports report delivery, and threaded comments give evaluators and teachers a place to continue coaching conversations.

Analytics and data handling

School-wide analytics and audit logs are included in the School and Large School plans, making those tiers more relevant to administrators overseeing multiple evaluators or tracking activity across a school. The maker says data is encrypted in transit and at rest, access is role-limited and audit-logged, and data is not sold. Its security measures include SSL/TLS transmission, AES-256 encryption at rest, security audits and penetration testing, optional multi-factor authentication, and backup and disaster recovery procedures. It also says it does not train public models on evaluations and that schools retain ownership and control of their records.

Observation notes are sent to the AI provider for feedback drafting, so schools should set clear note-taking practices; the maker advises leaving student names out. Onboarding support is available, including a 15-minute walkthrough by contacting [email protected].

Pricing

The free plan costs nothing and is free forever. It includes one administrator, one staff member, five observations per month, standard rubrics, and mobile access. That is enough for a small trial or occasional use, but the observation cap and single staff seat make it a poor fit for a regular school evaluation cycle. There is no free trial because the product already has a free plan.

Individual costs $290/year billed annually or $29/month billed monthly. It allows one administrator and up to 15 staff, unlimited observations, 10 AI analysis requests per day, AI-powered insights, and email sharing. This is the entry paid tier for a single evaluator or small team that needs routine use; it does not include the school-wide analytics and audit logs named for higher plans.

School costs $790/year billed annually or $79/month billed monthly. It supports up to 10 administrators and 60 staff, unlimited observations, 30 AI analysis requests per day, school-wide analytics, and audit logs. That is the more suitable tier when evaluation is shared across a school and administrators need broader oversight.

Large School costs $1,990/year billed annually or $199/month billed monthly. It raises capacity to 25 administrators and 200 staff and includes unlimited observations, 100 AI analysis requests per day, school-wide analytics, and audit logs. It is aimed at larger organizations that need those seat limits and higher daily AI quota; schools that do not need the additional capacity pay for room they may not use.

Platforms

EduEval is available on Android, iOS, and the web. Mobile note-taking syncs to the desktop dashboard. Email sharing and PDF attachments are supported; no external software integrations are named.

Who it's for

EduEval suits K–12 principals and school evaluators who work from Danielson, Marzano, or a custom district rubric and want observations, feedback drafting, and coaching comments in one workflow. Its paid tiers make more sense for schools that need multiple evaluators, larger staff capacity, analytics, or audit logs. It is a weaker choice for occasional users who can stay within five monthly observations, or schools unwilling to send observation notes to an AI provider.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Danielson, Marzano, and customizable district rubrics connect observations to a school’s evaluation framework.
• Pros: Mobile notes sync to the desktop dashboard, while PDF email reports and threaded comments support sharing and follow-up.
• Pros: School and Large School add analytics and audit logs alongside higher administrator and staff limits.
• Cons: The free plan’s one administrator, one staff member, and five observations per month sharply limit regular use.
• Cons: AI analysis is capped daily on every paid plan, from 10 requests on Individual to 100 on Large School.
• Cons: Notes are sent to the AI provider for drafting, which may not suit schools with stricter limits on where observation records can go.

Alternatives

Teacher Evaluation Software is a useful starting point for comparing more evaluation tools. Consider Education Walkthrough if a smaller walkthrough program needs a free plan with a longer trial option: its Basic tier allows one school, five teachers, and 10 walkthroughs per month, with no analytics or collaboration. PowerSchool Behavior Support is another paid Android, iOS, and web option, with custom pricing and demo-based evaluation.

EvalScribe may suit an evaluator comparing a paid individual subscription; its Individual monthly plan is $14.99 per month, and it supports iOS and macOS. Vector Evaluations+ is a quote-based option for organizations that prefer pricing tailored to organization size and product mix. eCOVE Observation Software is worth considering for teams needing broader platform coverage, including Windows and macOS; its Advanced Editions start at $99.00 annual subscription per user/observer.

Frontline Employee Evaluation Management is another paid evaluation option with pricing available by demo request. Classroom Mosaic may fit observers who want a paid individual plan with a free trial; its Individual plan is $40 per month, billed annually, for one observer and 20 teachers. iAspire is a paid alternative with an iAspire LITE Monthly plan at $99.00 per month, billed monthly, for three walkthrough forms and the iAspire Teacher Evaluation Rubric.

Verdict

EduEval is a strong match for K–12 schools that want rubric-based evaluations, evaluator-reviewed AI drafts, and mobile observation notes in a connected workflow. Choose a paid tier when the free plan’s five-observation cap or single-staff limit is too restrictive, and move to School or Large School when analytics, audit logs, and multiple evaluators matter. Look elsewhere if the AI provider cannot receive observation notes under your school’s data practices, or if your evaluation workflow needs more than the stated email and PDF sharing.
