There is a major difference between a standard ᑕᕼᗩTGᑭT account and the specialized ᑕᕼᗩTGᑭT for Teachers (and ᑕᕼᗩTGᑭT Edu) accounts.
Launched in late 2025, ᑕᕼᗩTGᑭT for Teachers is a dedicated plan specifically for K-12 educators. It isn't just a regular account with a "teacher label"; it is a secure workspace that offers many features that normally cost $20/month for free (through June 2027 for verified US K-12 educators).
Here is how they compare:
