A contextual AI tutor for school.
Aluma connects a student's real classes to high quality AI tutoring, tracks what they actually understand, and preps every major exam. Built and shipped in public, with students.
Aluma began with a firsthand student problem. School tools held assignments in one place, study resources in another, and tutoring rarely understood the actual class. The result was a lot of time spent stitching context back together instead of learning.
Aluma is a contextual AI tutor for school. It syncs assignments from platforms like Google Classroom, Canvas, and Schoology, coaches students through the work step by step, tracks understanding on a mastery ledger, and prepares students for major exams including the SAT, ACT, ISEE, SSAT, HSPT, PSAT, and current AP courses.
Today Aluma is an early stage company focused on learning quickly from students, shipping responsibly, and building the trust and team needed to make contextual tutoring useful at scale. We ship frequently, learn from student feedback, and publish what changed on the release notes.
From prototype to platform.
Started sketching a tutor that could actually see a student's real classes and assignments.
First end to end prototype reading a real school portal and coaching through a real assignment.
Used the prototype nightly through a full semester. Every bug became a fix; every subject became a test case.
Rewrote the prototype into a real app: accounts, school sync, connectors, and the mastery ledger.
Fast tier for daily help, deep tier for step by step reasoning. Interactive graphs, math, and the Test Prep engine shipped.
Web app opened to any student. Real students, real classes, real feedback shaping the product.
Aluma 1.0 for middle school through college. Full curriculum coverage, full test prep, one tutor that knows your classes.
