The worksheet is read once and immediately discarded. Only the conversation transcript is kept.
The tutor that won't give the answer
The answer comes from your child.
Not from the AI.
Sokrates reads the worksheet and asks questions — until your child gets there themselves. Never the solution. Always the next thought.

Maths · Grade 4 12 ÷ 3 = ?
I don't know how to start 😕
Sokrates No problem! What do you think — how many groups should the 12 be split into in the end?
Three?
Sokrates Exactly. And to split 12 evenly across 3 groups — how could you go about it?
Sokrates never reveals the answer
The problem
Every app hands over the solution. None build understanding.
Google, ChatGPT, homework-solvers — they all optimize for one thing: the fast answer. The child copies it down and learns nothing. The gap shows up at the next test.
Learning doesn't happen while copying. It happens while thinking.
How it works
Four steps to their own aha-moment
- 1
Snap the worksheet
Your child photographs the page — Sokrates reads the tasks.
- 2
One question, not the answer
The tutor opens with a single guiding question.
- 3
Think it through in dialogue
Question by question, like a real conversation — never more than one step at a time.
- 4
Stuck? A small hint
Reframe → example → small tip. The solution stays with your child.
The difference
Sokrates won't tell. And that's guaranteed.
"The AI caves and gives the solution in the end" — that's exactly what doesn't happen here. The tutor never revealing the answer isn't a promise in the fine print; it's built in and automatically tested: every change is checked against hundreds of test dialogues — including the sneaky "just tell me the answer" case.
For parents
Built for parents. With children in mind.
You stay in control
Profiles, PINs, and settings belong to you. Children can never see or change a PIN.
Safe sign-in
Children log in with a 4-digit PIN — no email account, no tracking.
Age modes
Adapts to their age
Junior
For younger children: warmer tone, more guidance, smaller steps.
Senior
For older students: more matter-of-fact, more demanding questions.
Learning history
See how your child thinks — not just what they practice.
In the parent area you get a learning history per child: which tasks were worked on and how the dialogue went. No grade pressure — a window into how they reason.

FAQ
What parents often ask

Sokrates reads the photographed worksheet — from maths to languages. Subject-specific modes are coming.
What happens to the photos?
Read once, never stored. Only the conversation transcript is kept.

Primary school through Gymnasium, with Junior and Senior modes.
