Our client is a remarkable homework app that lets teachers assign objective &
subjective homework by choosing from a question bank. It also gamifies
homework for students.
It helps teachers evaluate homework/assignments 10x faster and captures
100x more data points than any other existing system.
While the app automates the teacher’s job, it fundamentally disrupts education by
replacing marks/grades with data-driven analysis. It is a free mobile homework app.
