L8o: Diagnosing Math Misconceptions with AI
A revolutionary approach to mathematics education through advanced artificial intelligence
About L8o
Diagnosing the root causes of math mistakes with AI
L8o is transforming how students learn mathematics by identifying the underlying misconceptions that lead to errors, not just highlighting mistakes.
Our platform uses cutting-edge AI to provide personalized feedback that addresses the "why" behind mathematical errors.
Raising: $1M SAFE | Valuation Cap: $5M
The Problem
Persistent Errors
70% of students make the same math errors repeatedly because underlying misconceptions remain unaddressed.
Limited Diagnostic Tools
Teachers lack effective tools to identify specific misconceptions in real-time, hindering targeted intervention.
Inadequate EdTech Solutions
Current educational technology is either too rigid to adapt to individual learning needs or too generic to provide meaningful insights.
Our Solution
An AI system that diagnoses why math errors happen—not just what went wrong.
Graph Neural Networks
Advanced GNNs accurately parse and interpret messy, handwritten mathematical notation with exceptional precision.
Bayesian Knowledge Graphs
Sophisticated BKGs trace errors back to their conceptual roots across more than 300 fundamental math concepts.
Adaptive Feedback
Personalized learning interventions delivered through customized visuals, analogies, and text tailored to each student's needs.
Product Demo
Smart Recognition
