Gauth
Photo homework solver across subjects
We publish a full Four-Mismatches fit assessment for the student-facing exam tools first. For this one, the facts below are what we have verified — run the Four Mismatches Test on it yourself for your own students.
Independence: Addestra builds learning products too (MathsTutor, TinkerWell). We never review or score our own, and no tool pays to be listed or to rank higher — how we assess fit.
What it does
What the AI actually does — Photograph a problem; a 'Gauth GPT' model (built on OpenAI tech via Microsoft Azure) returns step-by-step solutions, with optional live-tutor escalation.
Why it was built — Apply ByteDance's distribution muscle to the out-of-hours homework-help moment.
