AI for tutors: plan sessions and mark in a fraction of the time
Toby Banks — Founder, Skillzy
The dispatch
New listings, creator interviews, the occasional discount. Every other Friday.
A tutor’s billable hour is the session. Everything around it — planning the next one, marking the last one, writing the parent update — is unpaid and endless, and it scales linearly with every student you take on.
What gets handled
- Session plans drafted to the student’s level and last week’s gaps
- Marking with feedback you review, not feedback you write from scratch
- Parent updates that actually go out, on time, sounding like you
Where the teaching stays
It never decides what a student needs — you do. It removes the paperwork between sessions so the next one is yours to teach, not to prepare at midnight.
I took on six more students and my Sundays came back. Both at once.Featured listing

Reading the contract and writing the proposal are the slow, expensive bookends of every deal.
AI for agencies: client updates and content that ship themselves
Two things eat agency margin: the weekly update nobody has time for, and content that never gets repurposed.
AI for photographers: shoot to invoice without the chase
The shoot is the easy part. The enquiry, the booking, the gallery, the invoice — that is the business.
