Classroom Group Generator

Classroomscreen alternative

The classroom screen that remembers your setup

Love the all in one teacher screen but tired of rebuilding it every day, or paying a full year up front to save it? Classroom Group Generator keeps your board even on the free plan, bills $2.99 a month when you want cloud sync, and adds AI lesson tools Classroomscreen does not have.

Three reasons teachers switch

Same idea of one screen full of classroom widgets, with the rough edges of the free Classroomscreen experience smoothed out.

Your setup is saved, even on free

Classroomscreen wipes your screen the moment you close the tab unless you pay. Here, your board is saved in your browser automatically, so it is still there tomorrow morning without an account.

Pay monthly, not a year up front

Classroomscreen Pro is billed once a year at $36. Our Pro is $2.99 a month with no yearly commitment, so you can keep it for the busy term and pause it over the summer.

AI lesson tools in the same place

Lesson plans, rubrics, worksheets, and quizzes are generated right next to your widgets. Classroomscreen has no AI generation at all, so that work stays in another tab.

Classroom Group Generator vs Classroomscreen

Every one of their 26 widgets, plus plans, pricing, and the tools only we have. We cover 24 of their widgets, the two gaps are Calendar and Webcam.

Classroomscreen widget list, pricing, and plan details based on their public site, current as of June 2026. A few widgets are covered here through another tool, for example video and PDF open in the embed widget and timetables run on the class schedule.

Build your screen from these widgets

Every tool here drops straight onto a blank board. Add the ones you use, arrange them once, and your setup saves itself.

How saving actually works

The number one complaint about the free Classroomscreen is that nothing is saved. Here is how we handle it, so you always know where your boards live.

  • Free and logged out

    Your board saves to this browser automatically as you build it. Close the tab, come back later, and it is still there. It stays on this one device and never leaves your computer.

  • Pro and signed in

    Boards sync to the cloud and open on every device, organised into folders per class. When you sign up, the boards you already made on your device move up to your account for you.

  • Built around your classes

    Instead of loose name lists, boards belong to a class with a real student roster, so the group maker, seating, and picker all pull from the same students.

Questions teachers ask

Still weighing the switch from Classroomscreen? Reach out and we will help you decide.

Get support

Is Classroom Group Generator really free?

Yes. Every core widget, including the group maker, random picker, timer, clock, noise monitor, traffic light, scoreboard, QR code, and poll, is free with no sign up. The free plan saves your board to this device. Pro ($2.99 a month) adds cloud sync across devices and the AI tools.

How is this different from Classroomscreen?

The two biggest differences are saving and billing. Classroomscreen does not save your screen unless you pay, and its Pro plan is only sold as a yearly subscription. Here, your board is saved automatically even on the free plan, Pro is a real $2.99 monthly plan, and we add AI lesson tools that Classroomscreen does not have.

Where is my data stored?

On the free plan your boards live in your browser on the device you are using, so nothing leaves your computer. When you upgrade to Pro and sign in, your boards sync to our cloud so you can open the same setup on your school computer, laptop, and tablet. Your existing local boards are moved up to the cloud automatically when you create an account.

Can I move my Classroomscreen setup over?

You rebuild your screen once here by dragging the widgets you use onto a blank board. After that it is saved, so you do not start from scratch each day the way the free Classroomscreen does.

Is anything better on Classroomscreen?

We want to be straight with you. There are two widgets we have not built yet: a calendar and a webcam. Everything else on their list is covered here, sometimes through another widget. Video and PDF open through the embed widget, timetables are the class schedule, and event countdowns run on the timer. On top of that, we add a seating chart and a full set of AI lesson tools they do not have.
