Maths Angel vs Eedi

Eedi spots misconceptions from which multiple-choice option your child picks. Maths Angel reads the working your child actually wrote, names the mistake, and traces it back to the earlier skill.

The key difference

Maths Angel

AI maths tutor

Your child types tonight’s question or photographs it, their working and all, and gets a tutor replying to those exact lines. ChatCat knows the UK curriculum for Years 6–11, teaches the method properly, and lets your child keep asking why until it makes sense.

Maths Angel also holds 500+ skills on one connected map, so a mistake in Year 9 work can point back to something missed in Year 7. A 3–4 minute animated lesson covers that earlier skill, a practice set proves the repair held, and your child’s skills profile shows one more skill mastered.

E

Eedi

misconception quiz

A maths diagnostic tool for schools and families, Years 5 to 11: its quizzes are multiple-choice questions where every wrong option is tied to a named misconception, so a teacher sees how a whole class is thinking. Eedi Plus adds a paid live tutor chat with a real maths teacher. But the quiz itself diagnoses from the letter your child picked. The software never sees what your child wrote.
