For Teachers
Your AI Teaching Assistant
How teachers use Hermes for lesson planning, student support, and grading assistance.
Teachers repeat a lot of work across terms and students, and a stateless tool can't build on last week's lesson or remember a class's needs. Hermes keeps that context, so it helps plan, differentiate, and reuse materials that build on what came before.
Because it's open source and self-hostable, schools wary of student-data privacy can run it on their own terms, and scheduled tasks handle reminders and recurring prep without extra effort.

What Hermes does for Teachers
Context across the term
Persistent memory keeps class needs, curriculum, and prior lessons available so planning builds on itself.
Reusable lesson skills
Encode lesson formats and rubrics as skills the agent applies consistently.
Privacy-respecting
Self-host with a local model so student information stays on school-controlled infrastructure.
Frequently asked questions
Can Hermes help with recurring lesson prep?
Yes — store curriculum context in memory and use skills plus scheduling so recurring prep is consistent and faster each time.
Is it appropriate for student data?
Self-hosted with a local model, data stays on infrastructure you control, which helps with student-privacy requirements.
Do I have to self-host Hermes?
No. Hermes is open source and self-hostable for full control, but if you'd rather not run a server, the managed FlyHermes option deploys it for you in about a minute. You keep the same agent, memory, and skills either way.
