Packback is an AI-powered instructional platform for higher education and K-12 that delivers real-time, formative feedback on student discussion and writing. Its products - Questions/Discussions, Writing and Deep Dives, and Originality - embed into a school's LMS through the IMS Global LTI standard rather than a public REST API.

API availability note: Packback does not publish a public, developer-facing REST API. Access to its products is delivered to students and instructors inside their Learning Management System (LMS) via the IMS Global LTI standard (1EdTech certified for LTI 1.0, 1.2, and 1.3 / LTI Advantage), providing single sign-on, deep linking, and gradebook/grade passback sync. The only published developer artifact is Packback's open-source LTI 1.3 PHP tool-provider library. The OpenAPI document in this repo therefore uses an empty
pathsobject and records this honestly.
