Peer Response Generator is an AI writing tool for creating draft replies to classmates’ posts in online courses. It analyzes an original peer post, identifies its main ideas and questions, and structures a response around three elements: acknowledgment of the classmate’s contribution, a new perspective or supporting evidence, and a closing question that advances the discussion. Users can specify a response tone such as supportive, analytical, or inquisitive, set a target word count, and provide a subject area to adapt terminology and depth. The tool is designed for discussion boards on Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle, and other learning management systems, with concise paragraph formatting. Generated drafts use “[Citation needed]” markers rather than fabricated sources, so users can add course readings or other approved references. No account is required, and the site presents the tool as a drafting aid that should be personalized and checked against course and academic-integrity requirements.
