AI gift for a teacher
Teachers work under district rules. Do not gift access that lands on a student roster or a school SSO without approval.
Appropriate
- Personal prepaid credit for lesson prep on their own time
- Clear note that it is for the teacher, not the classroom platform
- Modest amounts ($25-$50) unless they asked for more
Avoid
- Anything that requires uploading student PII
- Shared logins with you
Brass sells prepaid packs of $10 to $250 you can gift by email or as a card you print. Credits never expire. The recipient spends them across Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok and DeepSeek. US only, 18 and over; an unclaimed gift returns to you after 90 days.
Still shopping for the holidays? A Brass pack goes by email or as a card you print at home, so it is there the day you give it. Send a pack.
