Handwritten math tutor
Amend follows the equations, diagrams, and intermediate steps on your whiteboard. When you get stuck, it can respond to the work already in front of you instead of making you translate math into a chat prompt.
Worked examples
Read one line at a time. Find the first step that changes the meaning of the problem, fix it, and continue. These two examples show what to look for.
Algebra · Distribution
A common mistake is writing 3x − 4 + 5 = 20. The 3 must multiply both terms inside the parentheses, including −4.
Check: substitute 9 into the original equation. 3(9 − 4) + 5 = 15 + 5 = 20.
Calculus · Chain rule
Writing dy/dx = 3(x² + 1)² applies the outer power rule, but the chain rule also needs the derivative of the inner expression.
Check: expanding gives x⁶ + 3x⁴ + 3x² + 1. Its derivative, 6x⁵ + 12x³ + 6x, equals 6x(x² + 1)².
These are teaching examples. For feedback on your own work, write on Amend’s whiteboard. Keep each line legible and leave enough space between symbols; unclear handwriting can change how a step is read.

Problems, diagrams, and prior steps remain together on the same whiteboard.
Speak a question without retyping equations or describing every line.
Use a question, hint, or correction to make the next written move.
Where handwriting matters
Equations, functions, factoring, and symbolic steps
Limits, derivatives, integrals, and series

Geometry, chemistry, and statistics
Common questions
Yes. AI can interpret handwritten math when the writing and intermediate steps are visible, but ambiguous marks can still be misread. Amend uses the full whiteboard context and is designed to ask for clarification when the evidence is unclear.
That is Amend's goal: respond to the student's visible reasoning and identify the earliest supported issue instead of judging only the final answer. Handwriting and AI interpretation can still be wrong, so important results should be checked.
Start at the original problem and compare each line with the one before it. Check signs, distribution, and operations on both sides of an equation. Fix the first line that changes the meaning, then continue from there. For an equation, substitute your final answer into the original problem to check it.
Amend supports algebra, geometry, calculus, statistics, physics, and chemistry for learners age 13 and older through college STEM study.
No. Write directly on Amend's whiteboard on iPhone or iPad. You can also ask questions out loud while the written work remains visible as context.
