  AP is the platform for feedback excellence. Share comment banks, syllabus content, school policiies, and rubrics for use across the EDU platforms you know and love: Canvas, Google Docs, Microsoft Word, D2L, Moodle, and more. You can:
  - Create and manage content centrally, assuring every teacher has the right rubric, comment bank, policy info, syllabus snippet, or LibGuide URL.
  - Use dynamic rubrics and comment banks to handcraft feedback in less time.
  
  With AP you write it once, to perfection, then re-use to your heart's content!
  
  See https://www.11trees.com/solutions/annotate-pro/annotate-pro-works-with/ for a complete list of supported platforms. See https://www.11trees.com/solutions/annotate-pro/features/ for a complete list of features.
  
  For Individuals:
  Use the forever-free version of AP to create an unlimited number of comment banks for yourself, then use them with popular education platforms. Sign up and you'll get a 14-day trial of AP+ (no credit card required).
  
  AP+ adds Feedback Forms, Dynamic Rubrics, additional sidebar options, comment history, subgroups, analytics, and Google Translate integration. You can also license content libraries like our College Edition, Presentation Skills Edition, or Legal Writing Edition that provide 100s of stock comments that can be quickly personalized.
  
  For Institutions:
  License AP to easily share content libraries across 5, 50, or 500+ faculty. Schools use AP to scale writing across the curriculum initiatives, writing center operations, tutoring, foreign language instruction, project-based learning, presentation skills coaching, science labs grading, and even to centralize and share school resources and policy info through AP's Knowledge Base mode.
  
  AP analytics help measure the impact of feedback and help schools document regular and substantive interaction with students.
  
  With AP+ or Institutional Licenses you can:
  - Create and share (institutions only) large or small content libraries to serve as comment banks, rubric sets, or knowledge bases. Quickly add pre-written feedback to documents, respond to discussion posts, create emails, or answer chats. 
  - Turbocharge specific, personalized feedback with AP Feedback Forms including nested checkboxes.
  - Create simple or complex rubrics that escape the traditional grid to create rich, narrative responses for students.
  - Search across multiple content libraries, and hundreds of Comments, with full-text search or right-click menu to find just the right comment.
  - Leverage Google Translate to flip comments into another language or even provide dual language responses. 
  - Write free form comments to effortlessly store them in your AP library for reuse. 
  - Turn on the History feature to store ALL the comments you create in Google Docs or Canvas SpeedGrader so you can easily build out your content libraries and engage students with previous feedback.
  - License our College Edition, Presentation Skills Edition, or other content libraries to access hundreds of expertly written comments that you can extend and personalized. 
  - Review usage data, see where you have invested your engagement energy by comment group, sub-group and individual comment.
