ClassQuip Launches 10/12
On October 12 we're opening ClassQuip to teachers and schools — a live virtual classroom built for K-12, not another meeting link.
We've been building toward a single goal: make the first five minutes of class feel like teaching, not IT support. Video, participation tools, and the control bar teachers reach for all day live in one browser tab — tuned for Chromebooks and the networks your students actually use.
Mark your calendar: October 12
That's when the full product is live at classquip.com. Between now and launch, you can walk through the same room stack in our open demo — no install, no sales call required.
Visit classquip.com/demo, click Start live demo on your laptop, then join again from a student device or a second tab, and run a quick poll or breakout. If something fails on your network, email hello@classquip.com with your district name and what you saw. That feedback goes straight to engineering.
Why we built a classroom, not a meeting
Office video tools assume stable Wi‑Fi, small groups, and adults who can troubleshoot their own mic. K-12 live blocks need the opposite: readable layout for thirty faces, tools that stay on-screen with video, and media that keeps moving when bandwidth dips.
Quip Deck is where teachers run the period — mic, camera, polls, Quip Tables, breakouts, and screen share without hunting through menus. Quip Board keeps a shared canvas for whole-class and small-group work. Quip Intelligence surfaces participation signals, but nothing hits the student view until a teacher approves it.
For district teams
We design for school firewalls, student devices, and the attendance documentation your compliance team expects. ClassLink sign-in is available today; additional roster and SSO integrations follow the integrations your team prioritizes. Pricing and pilot details live on the product site — this blog stays for release notes and classroom stories.
What happens after launch
October 12 is the starting line, not the finish. We'll keep shipping clearer session summaries, tighter Quip Deck workflows, and the integrations districts ask for most. We'll post here when those land.
Thanks for reading — we hope you'll step into the demo before the 12th.
