Lesson Planner has DepEd partnerships — but we have deeper features.
Lesson Planner by Symph has DepEd regional advisories and offers the most format presets in the market — 4A, 5A, 5E, 7E, and MATATAG. But these are all preset formats. You can't upload your school's own template, and you're limited to 10 free plans per month.
14 features compared side by side.
Where Lesson Planner (Symph) falls short — and we deliver.
Only 10 free plans per month — not enough if you teach multiple subjects
You can only choose from their preset formats — no way to upload your school's template
AI output sounds the same for everyone — no writing style matching
Once the plan is generated, there's no AI to help you improve it
No calendar to visually plan and schedule your lessons
Not yet updated for the 3-term calendar or the Ilaw format
We believe in honest comparisons. Here's where they do well.
Recognized by some DepEd regional offices
Backed by Symph, a well-known Cebu tech company
Most format presets available — 4A, 5A, 5E, 7E, MATATAG
Has a 'teach from platform' feature for classroom use
If you want format variety and DepEd recognition matters to you, Lesson Planner is solid. But LessonPlan PH lets you upload your school's actual template, matches your writing style, gives you an AI copilot, and offers more free plans per month. If your school has its own DLL format, only LessonPlan PH can handle that.
