What is Khanmigo?
Khanmigo is Khan Academy's AI tutor, built on a simple pedagogical rule: it will not do your homework for you. Instead of blurting out answers, it asks questions, offers hints and walks students step by step toward understanding, always inside the context of Khan Academy's courses in maths, science, humanities and coding. Parents and teachers get dashboards showing what students asked and where they struggled.
For adults, Khanmigo doubles as a writing coach, debate partner and lesson-planning assistant for teachers, who get it free. Safety and curriculum alignment are the design priorities here rather than raw power, and conversations are moderated with human oversight options. If you want an AI that makes learners smarter instead of making homework disappear, this is the benchmark.
