Try Chalkie for freeChalkie builds the whole lesson, not just the text

It is the Diffit alternative built for teachers who need the complete classroom artifact, not just adapted text.
The reality
Why teachers are searching for something more
Diffit is useful for text adaptation, but many teachers need a tool that goes further. Here is what they keep running into.
Text output with no classroom slides
Adapted reading passages are helpful, but you still have to build the actual lesson presentation yourself — that is another hour or two of work.
Differentiation that stops at reading level
Adjusting text complexity is only one part of differentiation. Scaffold and Stretch worksheets, slide-level edits, and activity variants are missing from the picture.
No curriculum alignment built in
Resources that are not aligned to your specific framework or state standards mean extra cross-referencing work before anything reaches your students.
What Chalkie does that Diffit does not
From presentation-ready slides to built-in differentiation and one-click exports, here are the Chalkie features teachers switching from Diffit rely on most.
