You Teach Design.
We Handle the Rest.
Project timelines, safety checks, overdue work, lesson prep — the admin never stops. StudioLoom carries the logistics so you can circulate, mentor, and meet each student where they are.
Design Thinking Toolkit
42 visual thinking tools. 27 are AI-powered and interactive. Filter by design phase, deploy as presentation, worksheet, group activity, or solo task. No login required.
Built for the Design Workshop
From lesson planning to live teaching to student portfolios — every piece connects.
Live Teaching Dashboard
A real-time cockpit for your classroom. See who's working, who's stuck, and who needs help — all on one screen. The Workshop Model timer keeps your lesson phases on track while the projector view displays phase-appropriate content.
- Live student grid — who's working, stuck, or needs help
- Phase timer with Workshop Model (Opening → Mini-Lesson → Work Time → Debrief)
- Dark-themed projector view syncs from your laptop
- One-click launch from your dashboard with class pre-selected
Students Learn by Doing
Activity-first pages where students sketch, write, upload, and reflect. The AI mentor asks Socratic questions instead of giving answers — pushing students to think deeper, not copy faster.
- 10+ response types — text, voice, upload, canvas, toolkit tools inline
- Socratic AI mentor asks questions instead of giving answers
- Peer critique gallery with effort-gated feedback
- Auto-building portfolio from every response and reflection
Build Units in Minutes, Not Hours
Choose your level of control: Express mode generates a full unit from a topic in 3 clicks. Guided mode has a 7-step conversation. Architect mode gives you every field. Then drag, drop, and edit with Workshop Model phases built in.
- 3-lane wizard: Express (3 clicks), Guided (conversation), Architect (full control)
- Drag-and-drop lesson editor with Workshop Model phases
- Per-class customisation — fork on first edit, others keep the original
- Knowledge base with PDF/DOCX/PPTX upload and AI analysis
Safety Badges, Flexible Grading & Integrity
Students earn safety certifications before touching equipment. Grading adapts to your framework — IB MYP 1-8, GCSE percentages, PLTW 1-4. Silent writing analytics track integrity without surveillance theatre.
- Safety badge system — learn cards, quiz, pass/fail certification
- Framework-flexible grading (IB MYP, GCSE, A-Level, ACARA, PLTW, IGCSE)
- Melbourne Metrics competency assessment with student self-rating
- Silent writing analytics with writing playback for evidence
From Guided Lessons to Self-Directed Projects
Students begin with structured lessons, then unlock Open Studio for independent work. The 8-station Discovery Journey helps them find their project direction through interactive exploration — not questionnaires.
- 8-station interactive Discovery Journey with Kit as mentor
- Teacher-unlocked Open Studio — AI switches from tutor to studio critic
- Drift detection with 3-level escalation and auto-revocation
- Archetype scoring reveals student strengths without asking directly
AI That Supports, Not Replaces
You circulate and mentor — the platform handles the rest. AI generates lesson scaffolding following the Workshop Model. The student AI mentor uses Socratic questions, never gives answers. Your teaching style is learned over time and woven into everything it generates.
- Student effort is assessed before AI responds — low effort gets pushed, high effort gets challenged
- Silent writing analytics track paste events, typing patterns — never visible to students
- Your teaching style is learned from uploads, edits, and feedback over time
- Per-step AI rules change the mentor's personality for each activity phase
