Quick Start — 3 Steps
Do these in order and Sage will be personalized to your child in about 20 minutes.
1

Create your account and add your child

Sign up with your email. Then tap Add Child and enter your child's name, grade, and which curriculum their school follows (Alberta, Common Core, etc.). Each child gets their own separate profile.

Tip: You can add multiple children — one subscription covers your whole household.
2

Run the Diagnostic

From your child's home screen, tap "Discover how you learn". This is a 15-question quiz that maps exactly where your child stands in their core subjects. It takes about 15 minutes and is the most important thing you can do before their first real session.

The results go straight to your parent dashboard. After this, every session Sage has with your child is personalized to exactly where they are.

Tip: Let your child do the diagnostic on their own — it's designed to be independent. No help needed.
3

Start their first session

Tap any subject on the home screen to start a tutoring session, or use the homework card at the top to get help with tonight's homework. Sage will do the rest.

Tip: Enable Talk to Sage in Settings for younger kids — they just speak and Sage responds out loud. No typing needed.

A quick tour of everything your child sees when they open Sage.

💬
Chat area — The conversation between your child and Sage. Sage asks questions, explains concepts, and gives hints — it never just gives the answer.

🎤
Voice Orb (voice mode only) — The pulsing circle at the bottom. Tap to speak, tap again to stop. Sage responds out loud and automatically listens for the next answer.

Features Worth Knowing
A few things that make Sage different from other learning apps.
🎯

Diagnostic Assessment

A 15-question quiz that maps exactly where your child stands in Math, English, and Science. Takes ~15 min. Run it once, then again in 30 days to see real progress.

📸

Homework Scanning

Snap a photo of any homework sheet. Sage reads it and walks through each problem step by step — teaching the method, not the answer.

🎤

Talk to Sage

Voice mode turns Sage into a real conversation. Your child speaks, Sage listens and responds out loud. No typing. Perfect for younger kids and auditory learners.

📦

Practice Pack

Sage prepares a custom practice set — problems, flashcards, and quizzes — based on your child's subjects and level. Works offline once downloaded.

✨

Surprise Me

Every day, Sage picks something fascinating to teach — black holes, mantis shrimp, why rainbows are circles. Discovery learning that makes kids want to come back.

🔬

Science Lab Theme

The app adapts visually to your child's grade. Science Lab (grades 3-7) has molecular patterns, lab equipment celebrations, and a look that kids think is genuinely cool.
