Khan Academy Kids
Free early-learning 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 — Not generative AI — an adaptive 'personalised learning path' that adjusts activities to a child's demonstrated level; content is human-designed.
Why it was built — A genuinely free, high-quality early-learning app (ages 2–8) covering literacy, maths and social-emotional skills.
