"Over the past two weeks, Noah has often found transitions between activities challenging. He tends to raise his voice if he feels rushed, especially during group tasks. On the positive side, he’s responded well when given a brief pause or a clear next step, and he’s shown he can rejoin calmly and complete the work once settled."

Don't work harder — make feedback count.

When feedback is timely, clear and humane, students engage more, families lean in, and schools build a culture of growth.

Puffin helps teachers capture what they notice and instantly create well‑structured drafts — so that students feel seen, feedback is consistent, and time goes back to teaching.

Richer, faster feedback

Speak what you notice → structured, strength‑based draft in under a minute.

Why Puffin vs. the alternative?

The alternative

  • Type notes into LMS after hours
  • Scatter thoughts across docs, emails, and paper
  • Rely on memory — no trail for early wins/concerns

With Puffin

  • Speak naturally; get structured drafts in seconds
  • Consistent, age‑appropriate feedback ready to share or file
  • Light paper trail for timely reinforcement and intervention

Why this works

Frequent, strength‑based, actionable feedback is one of the highest‑leverage moves a school can standardise. Clearer goals, calmer classrooms, better attainment — all compound when feedback becomes a routine.

Puffin addresses high-impact mechanisms that research shows can accelerate student progress when implemented well.

You stay in control of your data

Puffin is designed with teacher privacy and autonomy at the center

🛡️ Your data, your choice

When you record a voice note, we process and transcribe it to create your draft.

We do not store your audio and you are free to delete data entries at any time.

✋ You approve everything

Puffin creates drafts for you to review — never final feedback that goes directly to students or families.

You edit, approve, and send what feels right.

Built for Europe: GDPR-compliant processing, data stays in the EU, minimal data (just first name; optional language for families).
Your school controls any additional data retention—not us.

FAQs

Do you store audio?
No. We process the audio to create a transcript and draft, but we do not retain audio recordings. If you cancel a recording, it is deleted; if you confirm, only the transcript and generated draft are saved.
Is Puffin meant for live, in‑class interactions?
No. Puffin is designed for quick capture after the moment — for example, between lessons, during prep, or right after marking. Live classroom interactions (e.g., greeting a late arrival or giving immediate verbal feedback) should continue exactly as you do them now.
How does Puffin fit into our current workflow?
Puffin plugs into what you already do. Examples: (1) while correcting a student assignment, you simply “correct out loud” and let Puffin structure the feedback; (2) during teacher or team meetings, keep a recording running and Puffin will produce a clear summary—no separate note‑taker needed. Copy/paste the draft into your existing platforms (e.g., Microsoft Teams, Google Classroom, Infomentor, Unikum, Prorenata) or share as text/PDF.
What devices and browsers are supported?
Puffin is a web app—record and process from phone, tablet, or laptop using a modern browser and built‑in microphone. You may need to grant microphone permissions in your browser the first time you record.
Who can see my entries?
Right now, only you (the teacher account that created them). We’re building an opt‑in sharing feature so you can safely share selected entries with school staff such as student health services (Elevhälsan) or school leadership.
Are the outputs final?
No. Puffin generates drafts that you review and edit. You stay in control of tone, content, and what ultimately gets shared with families or systems.
Can we integrate with our LMS or student systems?
Today you can copy/paste or export the draft (text/PDF) into platforms you already use (e.g., Teams, Classroom, Infomentor, Unikum, Prorenata). If your school wants deeper integrations, we’ll build them with you.
Which languages and age groups are supported?
We support 20+ languages. Drafts adapt to three grade bands (1–4, 5–8, 9–12) so tone, reading level, and structure fit the learner’s stage—and the family audience when appropriate.
Can Puffin help with behaviour and classroom climate?
Indirectly, yes. Consistent, well‑framed feedback supports positive classroom culture and clearer expectations. Use short‑cycle Notes to capture SEL/behaviour observations and follow‑ups.
Does Puffin work for group discussions?
Yes. Start a recording during a team or student‑conference meeting. Puffin will transcribe and structure the discussion into an actionable summary with agreed next steps. You may need an external microphone to correctly capture audio from multiple speakers.
Who is behind Puffin?
We’re a goal‑oriented team of educators and end‑user‑focused technologists. If you’re passionate about formative assessment, motivation, and practical tools for teachers, we’d love to talk—reach us via the Contact link in the footer.
