ClassDojo

  • The AI homework helper, the 2,000 plus digital book library, detailed progress reports, memory albums and calendar sync are all restricted to the paid ClassDojo Plus subscription
  • ClassDojo Plus is sold to families rather than to schools, so parents pay for the premium tier
  • The Plus page publishes no monthly or yearly price, only a 7 day free trial
  • No pricing is published for the school leader or district offerings

Zuddl

  • Pricing starts at $10,000 per year and covers only two organizer seats
  • A minimum of two organizer licences is required to open an account
  • Extra collaborator seats cost $170 per month billed annually on top of the platform fee
  • Portals, the mobile app, Event Hub, Event Series and AI content repurposing are priced as add-ons rather than included
  • The price also scales with total annual virtual attendee volume, and that attendee pricing is not published
