Sample result — this is what you get back

Worth a conversation

Most of this is theirs — one section isn't.

The opening and the conclusion match how your kid writes: short sentences, concrete examples from class. The middle paragraph changes register and leans on a source that never appears in their notes.

What stood out

  • • Paragraph three shifts to formal, hedge-heavy phrasing ("it is widely considered…") unlike the rest of the piece.
  • • A statistic is cited with no source, and it doesn't appear in the assigned reading.
  • • The thesis in the intro is sharper than the argument the body actually makes.

Ask your kid

  • • Walk me through paragraph three in your own words — what's the point of it?
  • • Where did that number come from? Can you show me?
  • • If you had to cut one paragraph, which one and why?

Paste real work above to get this for your kid's assignment.

Checks out

The thinking is theirs. AI helped around the edges, not in the middle.

Worth a conversation

Some parts lean hard on AI. Ask a question or two before it gets handed in.

AI did the work

This reads like output, not understanding. Here's how to walk it back.

Want it explained before they start instead?

The other half of the tool takes tonight's assignment and explains the concept in plain language — with a worked example using different numbers, so nobody gets handed the answer.

Frequently asked questions

What does the AI homework checker do?

You paste your child's finished work — or snap a photo of the page — and get a plain-language read on what the work suggests about their understanding, the specific signals it noticed, and two or three questions to ask out loud. It does not grade the work and it does not return a percentage.

Is it an AI detector?

No. AI detectors are built for teachers and return a probability score, which is unreliable and unusable at a kitchen table. This is built for parents: it quotes what it saw in the work and hands you conversation prompts instead of a verdict.

Is the homework checker free?

Your first check is free with no card required. Unlimited checks, plus plain-language explanations of assignments before your child starts, are part of the paid parent plans.

Can I use a photo from my phone?

Yes. Photographs taken on a phone work, including HEIC images from an iPhone, along with screenshots and standard JPG, PNG and WebP files.

Does it work for math and science, not just essays?

Yes. It reads any subject. For math and science it looks at whether the method and reasoning are shown, not just whether the final answer is right.
