What AI Prefect is
AI Prefect is a free, independent guide to AI tools used in UK schools, colleges and universities. It sets out what each supplier publishes about data, age limits and safety, and shows a rules-based green, amber, red or grey rating for staff and for pupils.
Ratings come from fixed rules anyone can re-check. This site is not legal advice and does not replace your school’s own DPIA.
Tools by type
Each type below names up to three tools already in the directory. The line under the type says how those names were chosen. Where any tool in the type is rated green for staff, those are the ones listed, in alphabetical order. Where none is green for staff, the names are an alphabetical sample instead.

Most opened tool pages
These are the ten tool pages opened most often on AI Prefect in the last 30 days.
The list uses opens from the last 30 days. We add one when someone opens a tool page, and the same browser counts at most once a day. We don’t store who opened it. The numbers update as people use the site. If two tools have the same number, the one earlier in the alphabet comes first. This is not a list of what schools subscribe to, and it is not a recommendation.
