Replace TutorCruncher and Pencil Spaces with one platform
TutorCruncher handles video calls with its own TC Video, but has no whiteboard — so centres running online lessons often add Pencil Spaces just for the teaching itself. ClassQuill matches TutorCruncher on ops and includes both video and a live whiteboard natively, so there's nothing extra to bolt on.
Why tutoring businesses move
TutorCruncher's own video (TC Video) covers calls, but it has no native whiteboard, so the actual teaching often still runs through a separate tool like Pencil Spaces. ClassQuill is at parity with TutorCruncher on scheduling, billing and payroll, and its whiteboard and video sit in the same session — plus the curriculum-aligned learning platform TutorCruncher doesn't have.

How the switch works
Export from TutorCruncher
Get your client, tutor and schedule data out of TutorCruncher — because ClassQuill matches its ops model, the structure maps across cleanly. Pencil Spaces has nothing operational to bring across.
We help you import
Send us your export and we'll help bring your students, contacts and schedule into ClassQuill — you're not re-keying a spreadsheet by hand.
Run both in parallel
Keep your old tool live while you get comfortable. Move real sessions across at your own pace — there's no big-bang cutover that risks a billing run.
Go live when you're ready
Once billing and scheduling are running cleanly in ClassQuill, switch off the old tool. Your families barely notice — they just start getting clearer updates.
What you're moving to
Curriculum bank, tutor-set homework, auto-marking, exam mode — the part ops tools don't have.

Learn moreSwitching from TutorCruncher and Pencil Spaces — common questions
I use TutorCruncher and Pencil Spaces together — can ClassQuill replace both?
Yes. ClassQuill is at parity with TutorCruncher on scheduling, billing and payroll, and its built-in whiteboard covers what Pencil Spaces adds on top of TutorCruncher's own video — so it's one platform instead of two.
Is ClassQuill as capable as TutorCruncher on operations?
On scheduling, billing and payroll, yes — ClassQuill is at parity. The difference is the built-in learning platform and native whiteboard it adds, neither of which TutorCruncher or Pencil Spaces provide on their own.
What do I gain over TutorCruncher + Pencil Spaces combined?
A curriculum-aligned learning platform with auto-marked homework, plus one platform instead of two subscriptions and two logins for scheduling and the classroom.
