The whole catalogue, no add-ons.
Family subscriptions are all-inclusive. No 'Scholar features locked' surprise at chapter 4.
Eleven full courses
Algebra 1 through Multivariable Calculus. All topics, all builds, all FRQs — no paywall behind a course.
AI Socratic tutor
Alex doesn't hand out answers. He asks one good question at a time. Kids learn to argue with him.
AI FRQ grader
AP-style free-response gets rubric scores plus targeted feedback in under a minute.
Standards-aligned
California CCSS Integrated Math 2 quizzes ship today. More state standards on the roadmap — ask if your state's coverage matters.
Daily review
Mixed problems pulled from what the kid actually studied this week. ~6 minutes.
Parent dashboard
Weekly minutes, stuck topics, graded FRQs — one screen, no tabs.
Parental controls
Lock topics, throttle AI tutor use, set quiet hours, gate courses behind prereqs.
Four cards. That's your week.
Designed to be scannable in the time it takes to pour coffee. Illustrations below — the live dashboard groups the same numbers a little differently per kid.
Levers, not monitoring.
Five switches you'll actually use. We don't read their conversations with Alex.
Lock courses behind prereqs
Algebra 1 finishes before Geometry unlocks. Set per kid.
AI tutor budget
Cap Socratic-session length per day. Some kids will burn it; this prevents that.
Daily AI cap
Cap how many AI grading calls a student can make per day. Stops burst usage if you're worried about over-leaning on the AI grader.
Quiet hours
Pick a daily time window when AI features are available. Outside the window, the tutor and grader politely refuse — notes and Build It keep working.
Course access
Pick exactly which courses each kid sees. Unchecked courses are hidden from their catalogue.
One subscription. Multiple kids.
Family seats are full Scholar — no feature gating, no per-kid up-charge.
One learner — younger or just starting.
A typical homeschool flock.
Co-op or large family.
The actual questions parents ask.
Is this a curriculum or a supplement?+
Either. The courses cover the standards end-to-end so you can use Build Understanding as your spine, or layer it on top of a textbook you already love. Most homeschool families pick the spine path.
Will it work for my 4th-grader and my 11th-grader?+
Yes. Profiles are independent — each kid sees only courses you've enabled for them. Younger kids usually live in Algebra 1 / Geometry; older kids in AP Calc / Statistics.
How accurate is the AI grader?+
The AI grader uses the official College Board rubric for the question and shows its full breakdown — points awarded, points missed, and one-sentence reasons. We err strict on whether the final answer was "stated" cleanly. If you ever disagree with a score, you can re-run the grade or flag it from the dashboard.
Do kids need internet for everything?+
Yes — the Socratic tutor, FRQ grader, and dashboards are all server-side. Notes and Build It work offline once the page is loaded.
Can I get a co-op rate?+
Family Max covers 6 seats. Above that, message us — we usually pool 2–3 families on one license and split it.
What if a kid finishes a course early?+
They start the next one. There's no per-course charge. Algebra 1 → Algebra 2 → Pre-Calc → Calc AB → Calc BC is a real path you can run in 18 months if you want to.
Do you offer a refund?+
Yes. First 30 days, no questions. After that the trial was the refund — but email us and we'll figure it out.
What standards are covered today?+
California CCSS Integrated Math 2 has shipped standards-aligned quizzes. CCSS, TEKS, and other state alignments are on the roadmap — message us if your state is the blocker on adopting.
