Maths Angel vs MathsWatch

MathsWatch tells your child which line of their homework lost the mark. Maths Angel explains why that line went wrong, teaches the skill behind the mistake, and families can start at home.

The key difference

Maths Angel

family friendly

Maths Angel is an AI maths tutor your child can use at home, with no school licence needed. When the homework goes wrong, ChatCat reads what your child actually wrote, names the exact mistake, and explains why that line lost the mark. The answer comes back straight away, not next lesson.

Then Maths Angel goes further back. It finds the earlier skill behind the mistake, then teaches that skill in a 3–4 minute animated lesson. Practice sets check the fix has stuck. A skills profile keeps the record of what your child has mastered.

MathsWatch

school homework

The homework platform many schools use, and only schools can buy it. Teachers set the work from it, and the marking gives credit for each line of working, so your child sees which line lost the mark. But nothing says why that line went wrong. Any question goes to your child’s own teacher and waits for the next school day, so in the moment there is no one to ask why.

When Maths Angel suits your child better

MathsWatch plays the clip the teacher chose. Maths Angel answers the question your child actually has. Your child photographs the working, ChatCat names the mistake and teaches the earlier skill, and keeps going until your child gets it right. No licence, no waiting for class.
