What this table compares
Most “AI student discount” roundups copy a percentage and stop there. They rarely say when the figure was checked, and almost never say whether it came from the vendor or from someone else’s blog. This table does three things: list the offers we could actually verify, label the source of every figure, and flag the ones where we only found second-hand information.
Method: check the vendor’s student or pricing page first, confirm against a vendor FAQ, help centre or terms page, then look for one independent third party that is not simply reprinting the same article. A figure is stated plainly only when all three line up; entries backed by fewer sources are labelled as such. Every failed connection was retried at least twice with a 2-3 second gap, reading the raw status code — a 403 (bot block) is not a 404. Perplexity’s student page returns 403 to crawlers but does exist.

The table
| Tool | Offer | Proof of student status | How much it saves | Verified | Sources / how many |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Notion AI (free tier) | Education Plus free for a one-member workspace. Not the same as full Notion AI | Institutional email; school must be listed in the World Higher Education Database. Notion states it does not accept student IDs | Plus lists around US$10/user/month, so roughly US$120 saved per year; full Notion AI still requires the Business plan | 2026-08-09 | Vendor help centre + vendor AI FAQ + third party / three |
| Adobe Firefly (free tier) | Included with the Creative Cloud Pro student plan, with Firefly generative AI and 4,000 monthly generative credits | School-issued email (.edu, .k12 or a school-sponsored domain), plus an eligibility check | US$19.99/month in year one against US$69.99/month standard — Adobe’s own wording is “Save 71%”. Year two rises to US$39.99/month, roughly 43% off | 2026-08-09 | Vendor student page (read via proxy) + two third parties / three |
| GitHub Copilot (free tier) | The free student plan is paused for new sign-ups as of 2026-04-20 — paused, not cancelled | Previously via GitHub Student Developer Pack verification | New applicants currently save nothing; accounts activated before the pause keep free access to a plan listed at US$10/month | 2026-08-09 | Vendor pack page + GitHub community announcements + The New Stack / three |
| Perplexity (free tier) | Discounted Pro for students and educators; the vendor’s student page confirms the offer exists | SheerID or a school email (this verification detail is third-party) | Third-party sources state Education Pro at US$10/month against US$20/month standard Pro — half price, about US$120 a year. No price text was obtainable from the vendor page | 2026-08-09 | Vendor page (existence only) + two third parties (price) / price has two sources, both third-party |
| Lovable (free tier) | 50% off Lovable Pro, or US$12.50/month off other plans, for up to 12 months | Sign in with a school email and click “Verify Student Status”, or submit a student ID | US$12.50 against US$25/month, about US$150 over 12 months; reverts to list price afterwards | 2026-08-09 | Vendor student page + two third parties / three |
| Otter.ai (free tier) | 20% off Otter Pro for students and teachers | Vendor pricing page states: email addresses ending in .edu | US$6.67/month annual or US$13.59/month monthly; the annual route saves roughly US$81 a year against monthly list price | 2026-08-09 | Vendor pricing page + two third parties / three |
| Microsoft Copilot (free tier) | 12 months of Microsoft 365 Premium free for college students, including Copilot features | A college email; the vendor wording is “use your college email” | 12 months free per the vendor page; third parties state renewal at US$19.99/month | 2026-08-09 | Vendor education page (read via proxy) + third party / two only; eligible countries unconfirmed |
| ElevenLabs (free tier) | Expanded free-plan access for students and educators, plus one year of ElevenReader Ultra free with a .edu or equivalent email | .edu or equivalent institutional email | No figure published on the vendor page, so no saving can be calculated | 2026-08-09 | Single vendor source only, not cross-confirmed |
| Canva AI (free tier) | Canva Education is free including classroom AI features — K-12 only | School email or proof of employment; re-verification every 3 years | Full Canva Pro value for K-12 staff and their students; higher education is excluded and depends on whether the institution has Canva for Campus | 2026-08-09 | Vendor eligibility page + vendor education page + third party / three |
Gaps worth stating separately
A discount is not a long-term price. Adobe and Lovable both use a first-period rate that steps up. Adobe runs US$19.99 in year one and US$39.99 in year two, so two years costs about US$719.76 — reading “71% off” as a standing rate overstates the saving considerably. Lovable behaves the same way when the 12 months end and US$12.50 returns to US$25. The number worth comparing is two-year total cost, not the first month.
A free plan is not full AI access. Notion is the easiest one to misread. The vendor help centre does say students get Plus free, but the vendor’s own AI FAQ states that full Notion AI belongs to the Business and Enterprise plans, and that Free and Plus users receive only a “limited number of complimentary AI responses”. “Notion is free for students” holds; “Notion AI is free for students” does not.
Paused is not cancelled. GitHub’s free Copilot student plan stopped accepting new sign-ups on 2026-04-20. GitHub’s own community threads and reporting from The New Stack both point to the same cause: agentic workflows raising compute demand. Accounts activated before the pause keep their access; anyone applying now cannot get it, and no reopening date has been published.
Expired offers should be labelled as expired. Google’s Gemini student page now states plainly that the previous student offer ended on 9 December 2025 and is no longer available. Guides promising twelve free months of Google AI Pro for students are generally recycled 2025 material.
Notes for students in Taiwan
Only verifiable points appear here; where nothing could be confirmed, that is stated.
The email domain is the main variable. Otter.ai’s pricing page says “email addresses ending in .edu”. Taiwanese institutions use .edu.tw, which does not literally end in .edu, and the vendor page does not address whether .edu.tw counts. Third-party sources say that where a domain does not end in .edu, students can contact Otter support with documentation from the institution (third-party claim, not vendor page text).
Notion checks a database, not a suffix. Notion’s stated condition is that the institution appears in the World Higher Education Database, a different test from Otter’s. The vendor does not list Taiwan specifically; in practice the answer is whether “Get free Education plan” completes inside the account.
Adobe’s wording is broader. The eligibility condition quoted by third parties is a school-issued email — “.edu, .k12, or other email domains sponsored by educational institutions” — which leaves room for domains such as .edu.tw (third-party claim).
University students should skip Canva. Canva’s eligibility page explicitly lists colleges, universities, higher education institutions and college and university students as not eligible, and states the programme is worldwide and not restricted by country. Taiwanese university students are excluded because of the education level, not the location. Taiwanese K-12 teachers do fall inside the eligible group.
Lovable states worldwide availability. The vendor student page covers accredited institutions globally with no country exclusions listed, while noting that not every university can be verified in its system.
Microsoft’s eligible territories are unconfirmed. The vendor education page describes a limited-time offer requiring a college email but publishes no country list. Whether Taiwan is included could not be confirmed; treat the checkout page’s acceptance of your school email as the answer.
Not included, and why
The following were checked against their official sites and produced no evidence of a student offer, or the page does not exist. Nothing here is inferred: ChatGPT / OpenAI (no vendor student page; third parties date the last promotion to 2025-05-31), Claude (the vendor education page covers university-wide agreements via sales only, with no individual student plan), Gemini and NotebookLM (vendor page states the student offer ended 2025-12-09), Cursor (the vendor student page mentions campus event promotions only, no standing discount), Windsurf (domain now redirects to Devin, no student page), Replit (no student plan on the pricing page), DeepL (/pro/students returns 404), Gamma (/education returns 404), HeyGen (/education returns 404), Synthesia (/education returns 404), VEED (teachers only, and the page states applications are closed), Midjourney and Suno (no vendor student offer found).
Contradictory, therefore not stated: Runway. The vendor help centre returned 403 on repeated attempts and third-party sources disagree — one says there is no individual student programme, another describes 25% off individual plans plus up to 100,000 credits through a student ambassador scheme. We are not picking a winner; confirm directly with the vendor.
How to use this table
Decide first whether you want a one-off saving or four years of lower cost. Of the nine entries above, only Notion and Canva are free for the duration of eligibility; the rest all have a point at which list price resumes. Then check whether your school email passes verification, which is where students in Taiwan most often stall — and note that the tests differ: Otter reads the domain suffix, Notion queries the WHED database, Adobe asks whether the address was school-issued, Canva looks at education level. Final amounts are whatever the vendor’s checkout shows; this table is for comparison only.
