It watches real paper
No typing, no re-photographing. Ollie sees the worksheet the teacher sent home — the pencil marks, the crossed-out try, which problem your child is on — and helps with that, out loud.
🦉 Home Tutor & Teacher Edition
A patient tutor that watches your child's homework — not your child.
Point one webcam at the desk. Ollie reads the real worksheet, listens like a teacher sitting alongside, and helps with Socratic hints — but never gives the answer.

Ollie
You carried the 1 into the tens column — read that column out loud to me.
Three promises we test on every release
Built to help — built to protect.
It never gives the answer
Every sentence Ollie is about to say passes an automated no-answer filter, backed by a continuously red-teamed test suite. Begging has never worked — and we test that claim on every release. Memorization facts (7×8, spelling) are taught, then quizzed — never just parked.
Nothing is recorded
Video and audio are processed in the moment and thrown away — by architecture, not policy. There is no code path that stores them. We do keep text notes of what your child said — parent-readable, and deletable anytime.
How it works
Homework at the kitchen table — with a tutor who knows when to speak.
Set up once in about two minutes. No headset, no special hardware — any laptop or phone camera aimed down at the paper.
Aim the camera
A quick wizard helps you point the webcam down at the desk so Ollie sees the whole page.
Your child works
They do real homework on real paper. No wake word — Ollie knows when it's being spoken to.
Ollie nudges
Stuck or slipping? A gentle Socratic hint that gets more specific — and stops short of the answer.
You get the digest
A 90-second Sunday recap: what clicked, what to review, tracked against a skill-by-skill mastery map.
Ollie Teacher Edition
Grade a class set in under 10 minutes.
The same downward camera, pointed at your desk. Feed a stack of papers through with a phone or doc cam — Ollie grades each against your answer key or rubric, and only the uncertain ones stop for a quick confirm.
- Scores called out so papers leave your desk already marked
- Roster CSV import with fuzzy name matching from the paper
- Safety flags from margins & journals pinned to the top of the queue
- FERPA-first: paper images stay in your browser, never our servers
Privacy you can repeat in one sentence
The honest version — including what we do keep.
"We never record or store video or audio of your child" is our top line because it's an architecture rule. Here's the whole truth, plainly.
Media is ephemeral
Frames and audio live in memory just long enough to help, then vanish. Never written to disk, database, or logs.
We keep text, not tape
Notes, transcripts and grades — the useful part — are saved as text you can read, limit, export, or delete.
Kids are profiles, not accounts
Children have no logins and a PII-minimal record. Parents hold the keys; a 4-digit PIN launches a session.
Someone thought about the law
Verifiable parental consent (COPPA) at signup, a published retention policy, and a FERPA-ready posture for schools.
Simple pricing
Two products. One owl.
