Classroom app in Gemini
Classroom app in Gemini is an in-app vertical AI agent from Google. Lets Gemini read your Google Classroom data and draft, update and summarise on a teacher's behalf. Nearfi's Agent Index rates its autonomy 2/5 (acts when asked): it carries out single teacher requests such as updating assignment details across classes in draft mode; it is not 3 because it does not plan multi-step work and cannot post, grade or delete. Status: live; 0 incident(s) logged.

Why 2: it carries out single teacher requests such as updating assignment details across classes in draft mode; it is not 3 because it does not plan multi-step work and cannot post, grade or delete.
What it does. Typing '@Classroom' in Gemini, or letting it spot relevant context, gives it access to the user's Classroom account. Educators can have it summarise submissions and progress, draft communications and differentiated assignments, and update assignment details across classes in draft mode. Students aged 18 or over can list upcoming assignments, build study plans and create practice tests.
Where it falls short. Google lists what it cannot do: enter grades or give private feedback, delete, archive or directly post assignments and announcements (drafts only), or create rubrics. It is on by default for Education domains, though admins and users can switch it off.
