What TutorUp is

TutorUp is an AI homework helper delivered as a Chrome extension and a mobile app that uses optical character recognition and AI to read a photo of a homework or exam problem and return an answer across subjects, and it also connects to human tutors on a flexible, pay-per-session basis rather than a fixed package. It is a helper that returns answers rather than a tutor that teaches the concept, so the explanation is a starting point.

What you can do with it

You capture a problem with a photo and the optical character recognition pulls the text so the AI can solve it and explain the steps across subjects, with both a web extension and a mobile app for help anywhere, and beyond the AI it offers a tutoring marketplace where you pay the tutor's rate for the session length you need, so the pricing slides with the help you book instead of a flat subscription.

Who it is for

Students who want quick answers to homework and exam questions from a photo, and parents who want to see tutoring progress, with both an AI helper and a human-tutor option. It fits learners who already have the assignment in front of them, and because many users are minors, the integrity and data rules matter.

A few things worth knowing

Pricing is a flexible sliding scale with no fixed packages, where you pay the tutor's rate for the session length you choose, so the cost varies and is not a flat fee, and you should confirm the rate before booking. Solving homework or exam questions with AI raises an academic-integrity question, so check your school's policy before using it on graded work, the optical-character-recognition answers can be wrong, and it is an aid that returns answers rather than a tutor that teaches. If younger students use it, keep personal data out of the photos.

Using it as a student

Photograph one problem, read the steps, then redo it on paper so the method sticks, and keep it for practice rather than a graded attempt, because the recognition can misread a symbol and an answer alone does not teach. If you book a human tutor, confirm the rate and the session length first, and keep personal details out of the photos. Used as a helper you verify, it can unblock you, but the learning and the integrity call stay with the student.

A data note

Because the tool reads photos of homework and many users are minors, review the privacy terms for what is stored and keep names and school details out of the images. Confirm the school's policy before using it on graded work, and check the tutor rate before a session. Used with these safeguards, it can support quick help, but the integrity and the data decisions stay with the student and the parent.
