An AI Math Tutor That Actually Sees Your Work
Most AI chat tools require you to type out your problem. MathNotes gives you an AI tutor that can look at what you have handwritten on the canvas and help from there.
How the AI tutor works
MathNotes has a floating AI chat bubble that sits alongside your canvas. You can drag it around, collapse it when you do not need it, and expand it when you want help. It supports full conversation history, so you can have a back-and-forth discussion about a problem.
The key difference from standalone AI tools: the tutor can see your handwritten notes. You can attach images of your work to a message, so instead of typing "I have the integral of x squared from 0 to 3" you just point it at what you wrote and ask "how do I solve this?"
What it can help with
The AI tutor is a general-purpose math assistant. Since it can read your handwriting through image attachments, typical use cases include:
- -Asking for step-by-step solutions to problems you are stuck on
- -Checking your work by showing it your solution and asking if it is correct
- -Explaining concepts -- asking "what does this theorem mean?" while looking at your notes
- -Getting hints without a full solution, so you can work through it yourself
Responses render in markdown with proper math formatting, so equations in the AI's replies are readable.
Powered by Google Gemini
The AI tutor is powered by Google's Gemini, which handles mathematical reasoning and step-by-step explanations well. It can parse images of your handwriting, understand the math, and respond with clear solutions and guidance.
Free vs. premium access
Free users get a limited number of AI messages. You can earn more by watching a short ad (3 messages per ad). Premium subscribers get unlimited AI chat.
The tutor is integrated directly into the note-taking flow -- there is no separate app or screen to switch to. You write, you get stuck, you ask for help, and you keep writing. That tight loop is what makes it useful compared to tabbing over to a separate AI chat window.
