Overview

Numerade, founded in 2018, answers textbook and homework problems specifically through video explanations rather than text-based step-by-step solutions, an educator or expert walking through the reasoning on screen the way a tutor would at a whiteboard, aimed at STEM subjects, math, physics, chemistry, specifically.

That video-first format is a deliberate choice rather than a text solution with video added on top: watching someone reason through a problem step by step can convey the thinking process more clearly than reading the same steps as static text, particularly for problems involving diagrams, graphs, or spatial reasoning.

A free tier covers limited video access, and paid plans start around $10 a month for full library access. For a STEM student specifically who learns better watching someone reason through a problem than reading static text steps, Numerade's video-first explanation format is built around that specific learning preference.
