Photomath is the fast-growing and forward-thinking EdTech company behind the world’s leading math learning app – and we’re here to revolutionize the way people learn.Even as an engineer, our founder and CEO Damir Sabol often had trouble when it came time to help with his son’s math homework. How could he check for accuracy and explain math in a simple, approachable way? Or even worse: What if he didn’t remember how to do that kind of math problem?
As many parents know, these kinds of challenges can lead to long, tearful nights at the kitchen table. But Damir thought, there must be a better way… and so, the idea for Photomath was born!
Powered by advanced machine learning technology, the Photomath app instantly scans printed or handwritten math problems to accurately and intuitively explain all levels of math, step by step.
