## What is Chalk?

The math tutor that teaches — not just answers.

Chalk draws every step on a real whiteboard in human handwriting, explains its thinking out loud, and asks you the right questions along the way — like a great tutor at the board. Write a problem with Apple Pencil, type it, or scan it, and work through it together.

WATCH IT DRAW
Every step appears on the board stroke by stroke — equations, graphs, diagrams — in real handwriting, never a wall of text.

HEAR IT THINK
Chalk talks you through each move in a natural voice, so you follow the reasoning, not just the result.

IT CATCHES YOUR MISTAKES
Write your own work on the board and Chalk checks it live, underlines the exact step that went wrong, and shows you why.

IT NEVER JUST GIVES ANSWERS
Chalk guides you to the solution so you can do it yourself on the test. Parents and teachers approve; answer-scanner apps don't teach.

EVERY COURSE, ONE TUTOR
Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1 & 2, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, Linear Algebra, Statistics and more — with lessons that adapt to your pace and progress tracking that shows your mastery climb.

MADE FOR iPHONE AND iPAD
Full whiteboard with Apple Pencil support on iPad, and a beautiful board built for one hand on iPhone.

START WITH A FREE TRIAL
Try Chalk Lite free for 3 days — 3 full problems a day with the tutor. Keep it for $5.99/month, or cancel before the trial ends and pay nothing. Chalk Plus ($11.99/month, 400 tutor messages) and Chalk Pro ($17.99/month, 700 messages) are there when you need more.

Chalk — the tutor that draws back.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

• A new welcome: tell Chalk your courses and how you like to be taught before you start
• Sign in with Apple or Google
• Chalk Lite starts with a free 3-day trial

• Ask longer questions: the input box grows as you type
• Snap a photo and crop it to exactly the problem you need help with
• Fresh App Store screenshots and polish throughout
• Tap the mic once and it keeps listening — watch the live waveform to know it hears you, then tap to finish

### 1.2.5 — 2026-08-28

A week of fixes, all from watching real tutoring sessions:

• The tutor no longer stops you right after you finish a problem. If you keep working, it keeps helping.
• Slow answers now give up quickly and tell you to try again, instead of leaving you staring at a blank board.
• Check marks and circles land on your actual work instead of on empty space.
• Press "check my work" twice and you get a new hint, not the same question again.
• Opening a new board now starts a genuinely new session.

### 1.2.4 — 2026-08-20

Subscription reliability improvements: purchases now sync to your account instantly, and plan restores happen automatically. Bug fixes for phone scanning and drawing.
