She stays with them.Until they don't need her.

Sophia is a study companion for a young person who learns at their own pace. She explains from what they already understand, then asks, then steps back. You bring her home. They use her on their own.

  • Nothing for them to install or wear
  • You see that they studied. Never what was said
  • She works with their teacher and their psychologist

Sound familiar?

If homework has become the evening, some of this will be close to home.

  • They say they get it, so they won't have to ask in front of everyone.
  • The more you sit beside them, the less they can do alone.
  • School explains it one way. They think another.
  • A phone will answer anything, and then open something else.
  • You want to know the afternoon was study. You don't want to read it.
  • It falls to you to make it click.

None of this means you're doing it wrong. Learning at their own pace is hard on the whole house.

She starts from what they already understand.

Sophia sits on the desk and does one thing. They use her on their own. You get to see that they studied.

Plug her in and she switches on. You say who she is for. Afterwards you see that they talked, and for how long.

A day with Sophia

A session has a beginning and an end. These are things Sophia says. Never what they answered.

  1. After school

    Let's start from the part you already have.

    She explains from what they already understand, until it clicks.

  2. When it's stuck

    What do you think happens next?

    She asks. The answer is theirs.

  3. When they can do it

    Say it back, in your own words.

    They answer. She asks again only to help.

  4. When they can go on

    Who could you show this to?

    A classmate, the family or the person who supports them.

  5. When the session should end

    That's enough for today.

    She is not trying to keep them. A session ends.

  6. At night

    I'll be here tomorrow.

    At night she rests and doesn't start a new session. If they need her, she is there.

And for you, the work, not the words

Open the app and see that they studied, when and for how long. Sophia does not report, summarise or score what was said.

Another parent can join with a code, and everyone sees the same.

You see the work, not the words

That is why they can talk freely, and leave her switched on.

  • You see that they studied, when and for how long.
  • Nobody reads what they said to Sophia.
  • She does not score them, and she does not report on them.

Alongside the people who already help

Sophia does not replace a psychologist, an educational psychologist or a teacher. She works with them. When a responsible adult is needed, the path is to that person.

Questions parents ask

Will they know how to use her?

Yes. There is nothing to install and nothing to wear. Sophia sits on the desk, and they talk.

Does she replace their teacher or their psychologist?

No. She works with them. She does not take their place.

Will I read what they said?

No. You see that they studied, when and for how long. Sophia never reports, summarises or scores what was said.

Does she replace me sitting with the homework?

She is there so you don't have to be there for every page. You are still their parent.

What if they come to depend on her?

Each stage is meant to need her less than the one before. A session has an end. She points them toward other people.

Is this a phone?

No. A phone has games, messages and another tab one tap away. Sophia does one thing.

What was the hackathon?

At the AutonomIA hackathon of the Government of the City of Buenos Aires, Sophia was named a highlighted project.
