MathGPT.AI is expanding fast after a successful pilot at 30 U.S. colleges. The AI platform offers an “anti-cheating” math tutor and teaching assistant for professors. Penn State, Tufts, and Liberty University are already onboard. Hundreds more instructors plan to bring it in this fall.

MathGPT.AI’s chatbot never gives answers outright. It uses Socratic questioning to make students think. For teachers, it generates questions, auto-grades, and customizes assignments based on uploaded textbooks.

The platform supports college-level math like Algebra, Calculus, and Trigonometry.

This fall, MathGPT.AI upgraded with more control for instructors. Professors can now decide when students can use the chatbot and limit attempts on questions. It also offers unlimited no-stress practice questions that don’t affect grades.

New features include a photo upload requirement so teachers can check students’ handwritten work. The tool integrates with Canvas, Blackboard, and Brightspace LMS. It adds accessibility with screen reader compatibility and an audio mode. Summarized AI lessons even feature voices like Ben Franklin and Albert Einstein.

The company says it complies with the ADA.

MathGPT.AI keeps strict guardrails to avoid off-topic chatbot chats. Peter Relan, chairman of MathGPT.AI, told TechCrunch:

“It will not have discussions with you about your girlfriend, boyfriend, or the meaning of life,”
“It will simply not engage. Because these freestanding chatbots will go in that direction, right? We are not here to entertain those kinds of conversations.”

Relan helped incubate Got It AI and was an early Discord investor.

Accuracy is a key focus. MathGPT.AI has human reviewers checking all content and a system to report AI mistakes. Relan added:

“If you find a mistake, we will reward you with a gift card to tell us what it is. Year one, there were five [hallucinations]. Year two, there was one. So far [this year], none. So we take it very seriously.”

MathGPT.AI plans mobile apps and wants to add more subjects like chemistry, economics, and accounting.

There’s a free version, but the $25 per student per course plan includes unlimited AI assignments and LMS integration.
