# Epivo > Epivo is an AI-powered personal tutor. > > Homeschooling families get one flat-fee subscription covering every core subject instead of hourly per-subject tutors. Upper-secondary learners are taught maths, science, English and humanities at IGCSE level; Epivo authors that material itself and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or certified against any Cambridge syllabus. > > A free plan (30 minutes/day, no credit card) is available; paid plans start at $20/month. The tutor teaches in 15 languages. ## What Epivo Is Epivo is a voice-first conversational tutor accessed through an Android app. Parents use a web portal. The tutor uses a Socratic approach — asking the learner questions and probing their understanding rather than answering homework directly. The system tracks individual knowledge components per learner so curriculum sequencing adapts to what each student has and has not yet mastered. The platform is an academic tutor covering mathematics, science, humanities, computing, digital literacy, wellbeing, and AI building. ## Who Epivo Is For - **Homeschooling families needing multi-subject coverage.** One subscription replaces per-subject hourly tutors (typically £40–80/hour) across maths, sciences, English, and humanities. See [/homeschool-tutors](/homeschool-tutors). - **Students working at IGCSE level.** Epivo teaches maths, science and English at that level. Science is one integrated subject, not separate physics, chemistry and biology courses. See [/igcse](/igcse). - **Parents wanting a tutor available on their family's schedule**, not a fixed appointment. - **Adult learners returning to a subject** they want to understand properly, not just pass. ## How It Works Epivo's tutor uses a Socratic approach: when the learner answers, the tutor probes their understanding with follow-up questions rather than simply confirming or restating. Learning is active, not passive. Mastery is tracked per knowledge component (KC), not per topic. Each course is structured as a graph of KCs; the system records which KCs each learner has mastered and which need more practice. Spaced repetition is scheduled by the FSRS algorithm — the time between practice sessions for any given KC is computed from the learner's recall history. Sessions are voice-first. The Android app supports natural spoken conversation. ## Founding Context Epivo was founded in 2025 by Henrik Thomé, who had carried the idea since 2015. The motivation: every learner deserves access to a tutor who is patient, knowledgeable, and available every day — but in 2015 the AI was not yet capable of real tutoring. By 2025 frontier language models could reason through confusion, adapt to where understanding breaks down, and ask the right next question; and AI-assisted development made it possible for one founder to build the platform. Epivo's current focus is adult learners returning to education and homeschooling families. Full story: [/our-story](/our-story). ## Trust and Operator Epivo is operated by **Swedish General Consulting AB** (registered Sweden, organisation number 556071-0229; address Box 647, 114 11 Stockholm). The platform operates under EU jurisdiction and follows the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The [privacy policy](/privacy) describes how learner data is handled, including retention windows, access rights, and the legal basis for processing. Parents can create family accounts that include multiple learner profiles and manage those profiles directly through the app. ## Positioning **Voice-first by default.** Most AI tutors today are text-first chatbots. Epivo is built for spoken conversation: the Android app supports natural voice dialogue. **Multi-curriculum.** Epivo is not tied to a single national curriculum. Subject-aligned paths cover mathematics, science, humanities, computing, digital literacy, wellbeing, and AI building. **Free plan available.** A free plan with 30 minutes of tutoring per day requires no credit card. Paid plans (Mini at $20/month, Max at $90/month) extend daily session time and Premium voice hours. Cancel anytime. ## Key Data Points | Metric | Value | |---|---| | Free educational articles published | 180 | | Subjects covered | 8 (Mathematics, Science, Humanities, History, Wellbeing, Computing, Digital Literacy, Build with AI) | | Courses available | 554 | | Instruction languages available | 15 (Arabic (incl. الخليج, مصر, الشام, المغرب variants), German, Greek, English (incl.
