The problem
Students often get stuck on homework when no teacher is around. Socratic explains each step of the solution, so they learn the method and can solve the next problem on their own.
What we built
Snap a photo
Take a photo of a problem and the app reads the maths or science in it.
Or type it
Type any question when there is nothing to photograph.
Step by step
Every solution is broken into steps, ready for homework and exam revision.
Many subjects
Maths and science, plus literature, history and other core subjects.
Formulas handled
Equations and formulas are parsed carefully, so the explanations hold up.
Follow-up questions
Students can ask about any step they do not understand.
How it works
01
Snap or type
Photograph the problem or type the question.
02
Get the steps
The app explains the solution one step at a time.
03
Ask follow-ups
Students ask about anything that is still unclear.
What this means for your project
