Third Space Learning is a schools-only purchase: pupils speak with its AI tutor, Skye, inside licensed lessons. Maths Angel takes any question a student types or photographs, and a family can use it directly on a free plan.
Maths Angel is built for the student at home, in between lessons. When a Year 9 shares £45 in the ratio 2:3 and writes £30 and £15, ChatCat reads the working and names the misconception.
It then recommends the 3–4 minute animated lesson that fixes it, and their skills profile tracks whether the skill is mastered.
One-to-one maths tutoring through its spoken AI tutor, Skye: the pupil talks, Skye listens and hints out loud. Everything is spoken in the moment, so there is nothing to read back later. And a family can’t buy it: its pricing page says it is “currently only available for schools”.
Schools onlyno home purchase
Third Space arrives through the school, on the school’s timetable. Maths Angel is there whenever your child is. At 9pm, ChatCat reads the working, names the mistake, and teaches the earlier skill. No slot, no licence, no waiting.
