PLANZR Browser (Web & LAN Layer)
Controls the student browsing window, freezes screens into "Eyes to the Front", and broadcasts lesson URLs over school Wi-Fi with zero cloud lag.
PLANZR Device Manager (Windows OS Layer)
Admin installs in their account and configures policies specifically for the student user: toggles allowed software, blocks unauthorized games/USB EXEs, locks wallpapers, and hides Windows Settings.

Engineered for Education
Designed from the ground up to solve the real challenges teachers and IT administrators face in school computer labs.
How the Local Classroom Mesh Operates
Unlike cloud-based management tools that lag or crash when school broadband slows down, Planzr Browser operates directly over your existing classroom router via low-latency local UDP packets.
- ✓ Teacher Console: One-click lesson broadcast and Attention Screen Lock.
- ✓ Student Workstations: Synchronize simultaneously in under 200ms with zero cloud delay.
- ✓ Outage Proof: Classroom lessons and screen controls continue even during external internet blackouts.
Offline LAN Mesh
Zero cloud server reliance. The teacher console talks directly to student computers via local Wi-Fi UDP packets. Works even if the external school internet connection drops.
Attention Screen Lock
Stop competing with student screens. In one click, the teacher freezes student monitors into an undistracted "Eyes to the Front" full-screen alert.
Instant Lesson Push
Broadcast any lesson link (Khan Academy, NCERT, PhET, Wikipedia) directly to every student screen simultaneously in under 0.2 seconds.
Native Adblocker
Integrated Ghostery engine blocks popups, video commercials, and third-party tracking pixels before they reach the student's screen.
Exam Mode Kiosk
Turn standard computer labs into unbreakable proctoring kiosks. Disables external navigation, new tabs, and DevTools during CBSE and internal exams.
Lab Channel Governance
Cleanly partition Computer Lab A, Computer Lab B, and Physics Lab. A teacher broadcasting to Lab A never interferes with other classes across the school.
