Which course does AscentIQ cover?

IB Mathematics: Applications and Interpretation SL, completely — every topic in the syllabus, calibrated against real past papers and mark schemes. We cover one course properly rather than several superficially. Additional IB courses are on our roadmap; the Math AI SL depth is the standard we'll hold them to.

How does the marking actually work?

Your work is transcribed, then evaluated against the exercise's mark scheme one mark at a time. Each Method, Answer, and Reasoning mark is awarded or withheld with a written reason. Follow-through is applied, so an early error doesn't automatically cost you the marks that depend on it.

Can the AI get the maths wrong?

The maths isn't generated by AI. Every number in every exercise is computed deterministically before the AI is involved — the AI only writes the wording around values it's been given, and is blocked from producing numbers of its own.

Do I have to write by hand?

You don't have to, but the whiteboard is where the marking is worth most. Writing out formula, substitution, and answer lets each method mark be awarded or withheld on its own. Typing takes final answers only — quicker, but there's no working to mark, and nothing to review afterwards.

What do I need to use it?

A tablet with a stylus is the best experience — the whiteboard is built for it. A laptop or desktop works fully too. We wouldn't recommend a phone: the whiteboard needs more room than a phone screen gives it.

What's in the free trial?

Seven days of full access — every topic in the Math AI SL syllabus, unlimited generated exercises, and per-mark feedback on the work you write out. No card required to start — we'll ask for one on day 7 to continue.

What does "founding cohort" mean?

Founding cohort is open now and stays open based on demand, for as long as we're in this early stage of the platform. Founding members pay a reduced rate and keep it for as long as their subscription stays active, and they have direct input into what gets built next.

Subscriptions are annual and renew once a year. You can turn off renewal at any time from your account and keep access until the term ends.

Terms of Service

These terms are being finalised as the platform develops. For any question about your subscription or your account in the meantime, write to renzo@ascentiq.io.
