Tutoring and AI study hardware

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 — A photo-search homework solver (image recognition matches a snapped question to a solution bank); Xiaoyuan Kousuan grades handwritten arithmetic via image recognition.

Why it was built — Use a free homework-solver hook plus low-latency live video to give exam-focused K-12 students affordable access to good teachers.
