Photo your handwritten work and the AI marks it like a CAPS examiner.
Past papers from any year, with question-by-question feedback and a final mark.
Pure Maths AND Mathematical Literacy (WG / ML) both fully supported.
Switch between English and Afrikaans for the same question without losing your place.
CAPS topics we cover
Every major CAPS topic covered with step-by-step solutions.
How MyStudyDesk's AI helps with Mathematics
Mathematics is the subject MyStudyDesk's AI tutor was tuned hardest for. Paste a question or photograph your textbook page and you get a full worked solution rendered in LaTeX, with every algebra step shown so you can see exactly where you'd get stuck if you tried it alone. Geometry questions come back with the figure redrawn as a clean SVG diagram, labelled in your language, so you don't waste time trying to decode a fuzzy textbook photo. When you write a practice paper, take photos of your answers, and the AI marks the whole thing the way a SA examiner would: question by question, with the method marks awarded honestly and a final percentage. It handles both Mathematics (pure) and Mathematical Literacy (WG / ML) and recognises every common SA paper format.
Frequently asked questions
Does MyStudyDesk handle Mathematical Literacy too?+
Yes. Wiskundige Geletterdheid (WG) and Mathematical Literacy (ML) are both fully supported with the same step-by-step solutions and past paper marking as pure Mathematics.
Can I get geometry questions drawn out as diagrams?+
Yes. The AI reproduces every geometry figure as a clean SVG with all sides, angles, and vertex labels in your chosen language. No more squinting at a textbook photo.
What grades does it cover?+
Grade 4 through Grade 12 (Matric) plus tertiary first-year Mathematics. The AI follows the SA CAPS curriculum and recognises common abbreviations like WI, WISK, MAT, and MATH.
Can it mark a Mathematics past paper?+
Yes — this is a Pro feature. Upload photos or PDFs of the paper plus your written answers (with or without the memo). The AI identifies each question, awards method and answer marks the way a CAPS examiner does, and returns a per-question breakdown with a final mark.
Is it really free?+
Yes for up to 2 subjects. Pro is R150 / month or R1500 / year and unlocks unlimited subjects, AI document uploads, and past paper marking. Cancel anytime from the Billing page.
