What is Spinagle?

Spinagle is a customizable decision wheel that runs on any classroom screen — projector, smartboard, laptop, or tablet. Instead of arguing over "Who's next?" or picking names from a hat, you spin a wheel and let it decide — fairly, visibly, and in a way students actually enjoy.

What I'd Love in Return

There's no hard contract here — just a simple ask to help me spread the word and make Spinagle better for teachers.

If your school or district has strict rules about endorsements or social posts, just let us know in your application — we're flexible.

Apply for Your Free Teacher Pass

We're looking for K–12 teachers who'll actually use Spinagle in real classrooms and tell us what works (and what doesn't). If that's you, I'd love to have you.

Fun fact: "Spinagle" is a mash-up of "spin" and "finagle".

FAQ for Teachers

Is this really free? What's the catch?

Yes. Spinagle is a small, independent project. Instead of paying for ads, I'd rather give full access to real teachers and learn from how you actually use it. There's no credit card required and no automatic billing at the end of the year.

Do I have to post on social media?

I'd love it if you could share 1–2 posts over the year, but we also know every school and district has its own rules. If posting isn't possible for you, just tell us in your application — we can work around it.

Do my students need accounts?

No. Spinagle is teacher-driven. You create and run the wheels from your device, and students just see what's on the screen.

Is Spinagle safe for school use?

Spinagle is designed to be used by teachers to run classroom activities — not as a social network or student app. We don't sell your data, and we're happy to provide a simple info sheet if your admin needs details.

What happens after my free year ends?

Near the end of your year, we'll email you with options: continue on a paid plan, switch to a lighter free version (if available by then), or export any data you'd like to keep. No surprise charges.

A Note From the Creator

Hey, I’m AJ — a product designer, dad to a 6th grader, and the person behind Spinagle.

Spinagle is very much a work in progress. I’m reaching out to educators because I’d rather build the classroom side with real teachers than sit here guessing.

It started as a small side project to make silly decisions more fun — who goes first, what we do next, who's buying the next round. Then my son mentioned that some of his teachers were using a wheel in class, and I realized there was a chance to improve on what's out there and bring AI into the process.

If you're willing to give Spinagle a try in your classroom and let me know what you think, that would mean a lot.
