Khanmigo is Khan Academy's AI tutor, built on the principle that the best learning happens when students figure things out themselves. Rather than simply answering questions, Khanmigo uses Socratic questioning to guide students toward the answer — asking clarifying questions, pointing out what they already know, and helping them reason through problems.
For teachers, Khanmigo serves as a lesson plan generator, discussion prompt creator, and classroom assistant. It can roleplay historical figures for interactive history lessons, debate ideas to sharpen critical thinking, and provide personalized feedback on student writing.
Built by a nonprofit with a genuine educational mission, Khanmigo's incentives are aligned with learning outcomes rather than engagement metrics — a meaningful distinction in educational AI.
