Aivee is an AI study companion built for South African high school learners, Grades 8 to 12 — aligned to the CAPS curriculum and available in all 11 official South African languages. Aivee doesn't just hand you answers. It watches as you work, steps in when you get stuck, and grades what you finish — so you actually learn, not just copy. THREE WAYS TO STUDY Tutor Mode Ask a question on any tough topic and get tutored through it in real time, in the language you think in. Test Me Mode Practise with real past-paper-style questions written by subject professionals — as quizzes, short questions, or full exam simulations. Homework Mode Take a photo of your homework and attempt it yourself. Aivee guides and gives feedback as you work, not just after. BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO DO THE JOB Every subject is written by professionals in that field — Chartered Accountants for Accounting, practising doctors for Life Sciences, business owners for Business Studies, chemists for Physical Sciences, and senior maths teachers for Mathematics — all aligned to the CAPS curriculum, not generic AI trained on the wrong syllabus.
