Add your first learner
Enter your child's name and grade level. SolveQuest supports K–8 across all four subjects. You can add more children later from the family settings.
Choose how to start
From the home screen you have two options: 📸 Scan a Worksheet — photograph any homework paper and we'll build the quest in 30 seconds. Or 🔮 Oracle Quest — pick a subject and topic and we'll generate questions instantly.
Complete the quest
Your child answers questions, earns XP and coins, and builds their rank. You'll receive an automatic email summary when they finish — no login required on your end.
Tap "Scan Worksheet" on the home screen
This opens your device camera or file picker. You can photograph a physical worksheet or upload a PDF or image file from your device.
Take a clear, well-lit photo
Lay the worksheet flat on a surface. Make sure the entire page is visible and there's no glare. Our AI can read printed text, handwritten questions, and typed worksheets. Hold the camera steady for best results.
Wait 20–30 seconds
SolveQuest reads every question on the worksheet and converts it into the right question format — multiple choice, column math, fill-in-the-blank, spelling, and more. Identical worksheets are cached so the second scan of the same sheet is instant.
The quest begins
Questions appear one at a time in the game engine. Some worksheet actions (like "circle the correct answer") are automatically converted to tap-able buttons. Your child never needs to write anything — all answers are digital.
Oracle Quest lets you generate a custom practice session for any K–8 topic in seconds. Perfect for extra practice, test prep, or when there's no homework assigned but you want your child to keep their streak going.
Tap "Oracle Quest" on the home screen
Available to all tiers. Free (Explorer) accounts get 3 Oracle Quests per month. Paid accounts get unlimited Oracle Quests.
Choose your settings
Select Grade (pre-filled from your child's profile), Subject (Math, Reading, Science, Social Studies), Topic (e.g. Fractions, Grammar, Earth Systems), and Difficulty (Easy, Medium, Hard).
Tap "Generate Quest"
The Oracle creates 10 fresh questions in under 10 seconds. Questions are deduplicated against your child's recent history so they won't see the same questions repeatedly.
Complete the quest
Same game engine as worksheet quests — XP, coins, effects, and a parent summary email at the end. The Skill Map updates automatically based on performance.
Every quest is a fully gamified experience. Here's how everything works:
XP & Coins
Your child earns XP and coins for every correct answer. No hints used: 10 XP + 3 coins. 1 hint used: 7 XP + 2 coins. 2 hints: 5 XP + 1 coin. 3+ hints: 3 XP + 1 coin. A perfect session (all correct) gives a 50% bonus on everything.
Hints
Each question has up to 3 progressive hints that guide your child toward the answer without giving it away — Socratic style. Tap the hint button to reveal the next clue. Using fewer hints earns more XP. A Learn More button appears after 3 hints to find lesson content via Google Search.
Streaks & Combos
Daily streaks reward consecutive days of questing (3-day and 5-day milestones). Combo multipliers fire when your child gets several correct answers in a row — up to ×8. The combo resets on a wrong answer.
Cinematic Effects
Big moments trigger visual and sound effects: Dragon Fire, Lightning Storm, Star Nova, Coin Blast, and more. These fire at milestone moments like perfect sessions, rank-ups, and long combos. All sounds are generated in real time — no audio files, works offline.
Bonus Quest
After completing a session, a Bonus Quest becomes available with a 2× multiplier on all XP and coins. This is a great way for motivated kids to double their earnings on topics they're already doing well on.
Assessment mode is a diagnostic session designed to triangulate your child's true mastery level — not just whether they got lucky on a few questions. It uses mixed difficulty questions and no hints so the results are accurate.
Start from the Skill Map or Progress page
Tap "Start Assessment" on any subject. Assessments are available on Family tier and above. Choose a subject — the Oracle generates 10 diagnostic questions at mixed difficulty.
No hints in assessment mode
Hints are disabled so the result reflects what your child actually knows. Wrong answers auto-advance after 1.2 seconds — there's no retry. This is intentional: the goal is accurate diagnosis, not performance.
Results update the Skill Map
After the assessment, every topic covered is updated in the Skill Map with a precise mastery score. Mastery levels: Not Started → Struggling (0–39%) → Developing (40–64%) → Proficient (65–84%) → Mastered (85–100%).
Use results to guide practice
After the assessment, the Suggested Quests section on the home screen and Skill Map will automatically recommend Oracle Quests targeting the weakest topics. The Curriculum Builder (Scholar+) generates a full weekly practice plan from assessment results.
The Skill Map is the most powerful feature in SolveQuest. It shows exactly where your child stands on every K–8 topic — not just "they got 80% on the test" but "they've mastered fractions, are developing in long division, and haven't started word problems yet."
Mastered (85–100%)
Your child has demonstrated solid, consistent understanding of this topic across multiple sessions. The "Stay Sharp" suggestion appears to keep it fresh with periodic challenge-mode quests.
Proficient (65–84%)
Good understanding but not yet consistent. A few more practice sessions will push this to Mastered. The Curriculum Builder prioritizes proficient topics for challenge-mode quests.
Developing (40–64%)
Some understanding but clear gaps remain. SolveQuest will suggest Oracle Quests targeting this topic and show a Learn More Google Search link for lesson resources.
Struggling (0–39%)
This topic needs focused attention. The Curriculum Builder and Suggested Quests prioritize struggling topics first. Consider finding a lesson resource via the Learn More button before the next quest.
The Progress page shows your child's overall position against grade-level benchmarks for the current school year. Topics are mapped to Common Core standards with expected mastery dates — so you can see if your child is ahead, on track, or behind for their grade right now, not just at year-end.
The Curriculum Builder generates a structured weekly practice plan based on your child's Skill Map — automatically prioritizing the topics that need the most attention. It's the closest thing SolveQuest has to a full curriculum replacement: no textbook, no lesson planning, just a smart queue of quests matched to your child's actual mastery gaps.
Find the Curriculum Builder
Tap the 📚 icon in the bottom navigation bar, or tap "View Quest Plan" on the home screen. Available on Scholar tier and above. Family and Explorer users see a locked preview with an upgrade prompt.
Review this week's quest plan
SolveQuest generates 5 suggested quests for the week, prioritized in this order: Struggling topics first → Not started → Developing → Proficient (challenge mode). Each card shows the topic, subject, estimated time (~10 min), and current mastery level.
Tap Start on any topic
Tapping ⚔️ Start launches a full practice quest on that topic — with hints, XP, coins, and cinematic effects. It goes directly to the quest with no extra configuration needed. The Curriculum Builder pre-fills the grade, subject, topic, and difficulty.
See your mastery progress
After completing the quest you return to the Curriculum Builder. The topic card updates to show the new mastery level — for example Not Started → Developing. If a topic reaches Proficient for the first time, you earn a +100 coin bonus. Mastered earns +200 coins.
Switch between This Week and Full Plan
The This Week tab shows 5 priority quests. The Full Plan tab shows every topic in sequence for the school year. You can drag to reorder topics in the weekly plan, or tap Skip → to push a topic to next week.
The Overall Progress Score at the top of the Curriculum Builder shows what percentage of grade-level topics your child is on track with for the current school year. Green means on track, amber means some attention needed, red means several topics are behind. If fewer than 3 topics have been assessed it shows "Start your Skill Map" instead of a percentage — complete a few assessments first to get a meaningful score.
The home screen shows a 7-day streak calendar with star ratings for each day — not just "did they quest" but "how much did they do." Below it, a weekly summary line shows total quests, XP, streak, and topics improved that week.
1 star — showed up
Your child completed 1 quest that day. Any quest counts — worksheet scan, Oracle Quest, or curriculum quest.
2 stars — solid session
2 quests completed that day, OR 1 quest with a perfect score (all correct, no wrong answers).
3 stars — exceptional day
3 or more quests that day, OR a perfect quest plus the bonus quest. Three-star days are worth celebrating.
The weekly summary line below the calendar shows: total quests this week, total XP earned, current streak, and number of topics that improved in mastery level. The "topics improved" count is the most meaningful metric — it directly tracks whether learning is happening, not just whether quests were completed.
Set a weekly quest goal in Settings → Children → Weekly Goal (default: 5 quests/week). When the goal is reached, a celebration fires and your child earns a +50 XP + 25 coin bonus. The goal resets every Monday.
SolveQuest's rank system is designed to take years, not weeks. Rank ceremonies are rare by design — which makes them genuinely meaningful when they happen. A child who starts in Kindergarten and quests 3× per week reaches Legendary Scholar around Grade 7–8.
Every time your child completes a quest, SolveQuest sends you an automatic email summary. You don't need to log in, check a dashboard, or ask your child how it went — the results come to you.
Session complete email
Fires immediately after every quest. Contains: child's name, subject and topic, score (X/10 correct), XP and coins earned, current streak, and rank level. Sent from [email protected].
Streak milestone emails
Fires at 3-day and 5-day streak milestones. A great moment to celebrate with your child — they earned it.
Weekly digest (Scholar+)
A weekly summary of all sessions, XP earned, topics practiced, and Skill Map progress across all your children. Arrives every Sunday morning.
Manage notification preferences in Settings → Notifications. You can turn off any email type, or route notifications to a different email address than your account email. No child email is ever collected — all notifications go to the parent account only.
Adding a child
From the home screen, tap your profile icon → "Switch Hero" → "Add Hero". Enter their name and grade. Each child has their own independent rank, XP, coins, and Skill Map.
Child limits by tier
Explorer (free): 1 child. Family: up to 4 children. Scholar: up to 6 children. Classroom: up to 40 students. Upgrade at any time from Settings → Subscription.
Setting a PIN
If you have multiple children sharing a device, set a 4-digit PIN for each child in Settings → Children → [Child Name] → Set PIN. The PIN is required when switching to that child's profile. PINs prevent siblings from accessing each other's quests.
Switching between children
Tap the profile icon on the home screen and select "Switch Hero". If a PIN is set, your child will need to enter it. Each child's active session and progress is completely separate.
Notifications
Control which emails you receive: session summaries, streak milestones, and weekly digests. You can also set a separate notification email if you want summaries sent to a different address than your login.
Rewards configuration
Set the real-world value of coins for each child. Options include: points (internal only), money (e.g. 100 coins = $1), screen time (e.g. 50 coins = 30 minutes), or a custom reward. Coins can be redeemed from the child's profile screen.
Subscription management
View your current plan, next billing date, and upgrade or downgrade at any time from Settings → Subscription. Annual billing (20% off) is available. Cancel anytime — no cancellation fees. Your data is preserved if you resubscribe.
