Built for how instructors actually work

Algorithm + your judgment

Surveys capture work style, availability, and skills. The algorithm proposes groups — you tweak them. Every decision is yours.

Designed for the gradebook

Export contribution-weighted scores directly to a CSV your LMS can import. No manual data entry.

FERPA-compliant by design

Student data never leaves your institution's region. We sign BAAs and DPAs for institutional plans.

Under 5 minutes to first group

Upload a roster CSV or pull it from Canvas, run the algorithm, and share invite links — all in a single afternoon.

Peer evals with receipts

Anomaly detection surfaces outlier scores. Students rate teammates against the contribution log they can see — not a blank form.

Artifacts, not black boxes

Signed team agreements, timestamped deliverable versions, and full audit trails are exportable at any time.

Trusted by instructors at BC post-secondaries

"I used to spend hours manually sorting 80 students into balanced teams. GroupWorks does it in under a minute and the groups are better."

Instructor, UBC Sauder

Business Communications

"The signed team agreement alone has transformed my course. Students actually hold each other accountable — I have documented evidence when they don't."

Common questions

What counts as an "active group"?

A group is active from the moment you form it until you archive the assignment. The 3-group free limit applies to groups that exist concurrently — once you archive a project, those groups no longer count.

What happens when I hit 3 groups on the Free plan?

You can keep using your existing 3 groups forever. To create a 4th group, archive an old one or upgrade to Instructor Pro for unlimited groups.

Is the 3-group limit per course or total?

It is total across your account. Most instructors piloting GroupWorks use it for one project in one course, which fits comfortably in the Free tier.

Do students need to pay anything?

No. GroupWorks is instructor-side software. Students never see a paywall — they just get an invite link.

Can I cancel Pro at any time?

Yes. Cancel from your Billing page and you keep Pro access through the end of the period. After that you revert to Free — your data stays, but you can only keep 3 groups active.

What LMS integrations are available?

Pro supports Canvas via OAuth roster import and LTI 1.3. Blackboard and Moodle are on the roadmap.

How does department / institution pricing work?
