CodeHS is a K-12 education platform for computer science, AI, and digital literacy. It combines a browser-based coding IDE, a learning management system, auto-graded curriculum, and teaching tools so schools can run CS programs from elementary through high school, including AP courses, cybersecurity labs, and certification pathways.

Core capabilities include assignments, classroom management, grading, progress data, academic integrity tools, QuizBuzz quizzes, and LOGIC pre- and posttests. The IDE supports JavaScript, Python, Java, C++, SQL, HTML, Karel, Tracy Blocks, and p5.js, with autograding, in-editor help, version history, and block-to-text conversion. AI features include AI Creator for lesson generation, Vibe Coding, Bool, Ask AI, AI Grading, and Smart Hints. Additional products cover K-8 coding (CodeHop, Tynker), typing, certifications, and the Cyber Range for CTF-style labs. Integrations connect CodeHS to district platforms, and professional development is available through online courses, workshops, cohorts, and microcredentials.

CodeHS is built for districts, schools, and individual teachers. It offers a free teacher account and a free plan, with CodeHS Pro as the paid edition; schools and districts can request a quote.
