Question 1

Does it work with handwritten math?

Accepted Answer

Yes — our OCR is specifically tuned for handwritten math, including messy scrawls, mixed print/cursive, and math-specific notation (fractions, integrals, summations, matrices). We outperform Photomath's handwriting recognition in testing of high school and college-level problems.

Question 2

What subjects are supported?

Accepted Answer

Algebra, calculus (differentiation, integration, limits, series), geometry (proofs, area, volume), trigonometry, statistics (probability, distributions, regression), physics (kinematics, dynamics, E&M, quantum basics), and chemistry (stoichiometry, thermodynamics, equilibrium, kinetics). Word problems work too.

Question 3

What are the 5 explanation modes?

Accepted Answer

(1) Quick Answer — just the result. (2) Show Every Step — full worked solution with each algebraic manipulation. (3) With Diagrams — includes SVG-style visual explanations for geometry and physics. (4) Video-Style Narration — written as if a teacher is walking you through it. (5) Alternative Methods — solves the same problem 2-3 different ways for deeper understanding.

Question 4

Can I unblur steps one at a time?

Accepted Answer

Yes — click any step to reveal it. The rest stay blurred so you can work through the problem yourself first, then peek at each step as needed. Great for self-study or tutoring.

Question 5

How is this different from Photomath or Socratic?

Accepted Answer

Photomath is $9.99/month and handwriting-weak. Socratic requires Google login and is homework-only. Our tool is free (3 uses), handwriting-optimized, multi-subject, supports 40+ languages, and includes practice problems at the end for retention. Plus alternative-methods mode — showing 2-3 different approaches — is unique.

Question 6

Does it solve word problems?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Upload a photo of the word problem and the solver will translate it to equations, set up the math, and walk through to the answer. Works for physics setups, chemistry stoichiometry, algebra word problems, and calculus applied scenarios.

Question 7

What about practice problems?

Accepted Answer

After solving your problem, we generate 3 similar practice problems at the same difficulty level — perfect for exam prep. Each comes with its own answer, revealed on click.

Question 8

What languages are supported?

Accepted Answer

40+ languages for problem statement translation and explanation output. The math itself is universal — works with any notation, including non-English textbook conventions.

Question 9

How many free solves?

Accepted Answer

3 free photo-math solves. After that, upgrade to CopyRocket Pro for unlimited scans, history, and PDF export of your solution worksheets.

Question 10

Is my image private?

Accepted Answer

Images are sent to our AI analysis endpoint in-memory and discarded after the response. Nothing is stored.
