Bring AI Instantly into Moodle — 15+ AI Tools via LTI 1.3
Connect to Moodle 3.9+, Moodle Cloud, or any self-hosted Moodle instance in under 3 minutes — no intrusive plugins, no custom code, no credit card required.
Built for Moodle — Highlights
Three features that make EduGears AI the best LTI choice for Moodle.
One-Click Plugin Registration
Install the EduGears plugin from moodle.org, click "Register EduGears AI," and you're done — no manual LTI key entry, no admin spreadsheets.
Works Behind Firewalls
The Moodle plugin registers through your browser — your Moodle server never needs a public URL. Self-hosted, private network, or localhost all work.
Grade Passback to Moodle Gradebook
AI-graded quizzes and essays post scores directly back to the Moodle gradebook via LTI Assignment and Grade Services — students see results instantly.

Moodle FAQ
Common questions about adding AI to Moodle via EduGears.
Does EduGears AI work with self-hosted Moodle?
Yes. EduGears AI works with any self-hosted Moodle instance running Moodle 3.9 or later, including instances behind firewalls. The Moodle plugin registers through your browser using OAuth, so your Moodle server does not need a publicly accessible URL.
Does it work with Moodle Cloud?
Yes. EduGears AI is fully compatible with Moodle Cloud. On the Premium plan, you get one-click plugin registration. On the Starter plan, paste the universal LTI registration URL into your Moodle external tools admin.
Can I install the EduGears plugin from the Moodle Plugins directory?
Yes — find it at moodle.org/plugins/local_edugears. Install it the same way as any other Moodle plugin, then click "Register EduGears AI" inside Moodle to connect to the service automatically.
Do grades from AI-graded assignments sync back to Moodle's gradebook?
Yes. EduGears uses LTI Assignment and Grade Services (AGS) to post grades automatically back to Moodle's gradebook. Students see their grades in the LMS as soon as AI grading completes — no manual export needed.
What Moodle versions are supported?
Moodle 3.9 and above, including Moodle 4.x and the latest Moodle 5.x releases.
Can I generate questions in multiple languages for Moodle courses?
Yes. EduGears AI supports 80 languages. You can generate questions, study guides, lesson plans, and feedback in any language, making it ideal for multilingual Moodle deployments.
Is EduGears AI different from Moodle's built-in AI subsystem?
Yes. Moodle 4.5+ introduced a native AI subsystem, but it requires technical configuration of AI providers. EduGears adds 15 ready-to-use tools on top of any Moodle install — including question generation, AI grading with rubrics, an AI tutor, slides, study guides, and more — all without needing to configure Moodle's core AI settings.
What AI providers can I use with Moodle via EduGears?
OpenAI (GPT-4), Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, DeepSeek, and Sarvam AI. You can use EduGears' managed credits or connect your own API key with the Bring Your Own Key option.
