The file tools moved โ and now they save your work.
Seating charts, labels and mail merge, name badges, checklists and PDF tools are now a free Chrome and Edge extension. Same tools, with two differences that matter: they remember what you made, and everything they make is stored on your own computer instead of on our servers.
It's on the Chrome Web Store now. One click to install, and it works in Edge too. Free, no account, works offline.
What's in it
Import one roster export from your SIS and every tool below is already filled in.
Your classes
One SIS export splits into a class per course โ or merge several sections into one period. Guardian contacts come along too.
Seating Chart Generator
Keep-apart groups of any size, seats filled from the front of the room back, locked seats, drag to swap โ and the chart is still there when you reopen it in January.
Labels & Mail Merge
Avery sheets and full-page letters merged from a class, its guardian addresses, or any CSV.
Name Badges & Tents
Avery 5395 badges and foldable desk tents, straight from a class list.
Checklists & Trackers
Attendance grids, turn-in trackers, reading logs and sign-in sheets, sized to one page.
Group & Team Maker
New. Groups by count or by size, honoring the same keep-apart groups as your seating chart.
Name Picker
New. Cold-call without repeats, with a projector mode and the space bar to pick.
PDF Tools
Merge, split, sign, fill, redact, booklet and compress โ with nothing uploaded anywhere.
Getting started
Install it
One click from the Chrome Web Store or Edge Add-ons. Nothing to configure.
Drop in a roster
The export your SIS already produces. It reads CSV, tab-separated and Excel files.
Open a tool
Pick a class and print. The extension walks you through it the first time.
Save a backup
One file holds everything. Keep it somewhere that isn't this laptop.
Still here on the website
These need your ClassConvene account and stay where they were.
Before you rely on it
Your work lives on your computer, not with us.
That is the point of the change โ but it cuts both ways. We cannot read, export, or restore anything you make in the extension, and uninstalling it or resetting your browser profile deletes it. The extension reminds you to save a backup file; keep that file somewhere other than the machine it came from.
It also needs Chrome or Edge on a computer where you are allowed to install an extension. If your district blocks that, send them the IT guide โ a default install requests no access to any website and contains no remote code.
