  5. Plan the chaptersOne card per section, with its word count and steps.
  6. Sources for each chapterWhich source goes where, with page numbers.
  7. Write, check and hand inOne section at a time, then a final checklist.
The brief marker with an essay brief marked up: the command words, the topic, four limits, three criteria and two things to include, each in its own colour, with what Critically evaluate means and the list of key words beside it.

KanBananza + Peel

Sources as you go, linked to your plan

Save sources in Peel while you read. Link the Peel project to your board, and they show up where you plan, checked against the brief. Then put each one on the card it belongs to.

  1. Save it in Peel

    One click on the page, or a quote from a PDF, with its page number.

    Peel’s library: an essay project with its sources and a Harvard reference ready to copy.

  2. It shows on your board

    The board’s Sources stack fills with the Peel project’s sources, and flags a gap, like a missing date.

    The Sources stack beside a board, with six Harvard references and one missing date flagged.

  3. Put it on the card

    Drag a source onto the card it’s for, or press From Sources. Add the page, and the citation and reference list are ready to copy.

    A card’s Sources used: three sources with page numbers and citations, and the reference list in Harvard.

FAQ

Good questions.

Anything else? Email [email protected] and a real person will reply.

Is KanBananza free for students?

Yes. Boards, the ready-made study boards, due dates, checklists, the focus timer, the brief marker, the Assignments stack, the Sources stack and Harvard references are free. Full Bananza (from £9 a year) adds every referencing style, sources on each card and the Research library. Pip, the AI helper, has a free week, then comes with a Pip plan from £3.99 a month, which includes Full Bananza. See pricing.

Will Pip write my assignment?

No. Pip plans: it turns a brief into dated steps, breaks big tasks down, explains a command word for your subject and tidies a source’s details. It never writes or rewrites your work, never makes up sources, and shows every change before it’s made. Follow your school’s or university’s rules on AI: planning help is usually fine, but check your course handbook.

Where is my data stored?

In your browser’s storage on this computer, or the app’s own folder. There is no account. If you turn on sync, an encrypted copy also goes to a hidden folder in your own Google Drive. We never see it either way. See what leaves your device.

What does Pip send, and is it kept?

Nothing is sent unless you press one of Pip’s buttons. Then only what that job needs, like the brief or the card you chose, goes to KanBananza’s AI server. We keep no copy and no logs of it, and it isn’t used to train AI. See Meet Pip.

Is it good for ADHD or dyslexia?

It’s designed for neurocomplex brains, ADHD and dyslexia included: a dyslexia font and spacing, bigger text, a calm Today plan, a focus timer and a one-key blur for a clear screen. Everyone’s different, so every option can be switched on or off, and all of them are free. See every brain.

Which devices does it work on?

Any current browser, including Safari, at app.kanbananza.com, and the Mac and Windows app. The browser extension for Chrome and Edge is still there too, though the store copy updates more slowly. See where to get it.

I’m a teacher or SENCO. What is there for my students?

Free lessons, posters and printables on planning assignments and referencing, each in a dyslexia-friendly version, on the educators page. Students need no account, and we hold no data about them. Class and school licences for Pip are coming; leave an email there to hear first.

Does it sync between computers?

Yes, with Full Bananza. Turn on sync and your boards stay up to date on all your computers through your own Google Drive, encrypted on your computer first with a passphrase only you know.

What happens if I stop paying?

Nothing is deleted. Full Bananza features switch off, and everything you made stays. Lifetime never renews.
