To add 3/4 and 1/2, what do we need to find first?

A common denominator?

Exactly! What number works for both 4 and 2?

Real Problems

Sound familiar?

Wrong answer, frustration, give up. Pengi breaks this cycle.

"I keep getting fractions wrong!"

Doesn't find the common denominator, or simplifies incorrectly.

PengiPengi:

"To add 3/4 and 1/3, you need the same bottom number. What number works for both 4 and 3?"

"My SmartScore keeps dropping!"

Wrong answers in a row on IXL tank the score. Frustration spirals.

PengiPengi:

"Let's slow down. Before answering, tell me: what is this problem asking you to find?"

"Khan Academy hints don't help"

Read the hint but still doesn't understand the underlying concept.

PengiPengi:

"The hint says subtract 7. But why? What are we trying to get alone on one side?"

"I don't even understand the question"

Word problems that require extracting the math from a story context.

PengiPengi:

"Let's read it together. What numbers are given? And what is the question asking you to find?"

Beyond Homework Help

Not a homework cheat.
A homework coach.

Pengi never gives answers. It builds the thinking that makes answers obvious.

📚

Homework time

IXL and Khan assignments at 8pm. Parents can't help with 5th grade fractions. Pengi can — and it actually teaches, not just gives answers.

📝

Test prep

Practicing for a math test but keeps hitting the same wrong answer? Pengi identifies the gap and asks targeted questions to fill it.

💪

Confidence building

Every "I figured it out!" moment builds math confidence. Pengi creates these moments consistently — not by being easy, but by being patient.

The goal isn't finishing the assignment.

It's understanding the math so well that the next assignment is easy.

FAQ

Common questions

Does IXL have a built-in AI tutor?
IXL has Spark Studio for teachers, but no built-in AI tutor for students. Pengi's Chrome Extension fills this gap — it activates automatically on IXL exercises and provides real-time voice guidance.
How is this different from Khanmigo?
Khanmigo requires a Khan Academy subscription. Pengi works as a free Chrome Extension on both Khan Academy AND IXL — one tool for both platforms. It uses voice-based Socratic tutoring and reads the problem context automatically.
Will it give my child the answers?
Never. Pengi asks guiding questions: "What does the denominator mean?" "What should you do to both sides?" Your child builds real understanding, not answer-copying habits.
Will it help with SmartScore on IXL?
Indirectly, yes. SmartScore drops when students guess wrong repeatedly. Pengi helps students think through problems before answering — fewer wrong guesses means a more stable SmartScore.
Is it free?
The Chrome Extension is free to install and includes a free trial. After the trial, plans start at a few dollars per month — less than a single tutoring session.
Does it work on other platforms?
Yes. The same extension also works on Scratch and PhET Simulations — providing Socratic tutoring on each platform.

No more homework meltdowns.
No more guessing.

Next time your child is stuck on IXL or Khan Academy, they'll click one button and work through it themselves.

Free trial included. Works on IXL, Khan Academy, Scratch, and PhET.
