  1. What TutorCat is, and who it's forA homework tutor for children in grades 3 to 12 that teaches step by step instead of handing over answers, with parents kept in the picture.
  2. How a tutoring session worksAsk a question, work through the steps one at a time, and unlock the answer once you've engaged with them.
  3. Built for every ageGrades 3 to 5 get bigger, simpler screens and replies read aloud; older students get the full studio.
  4. How parents stay involvedConsent, session summaries and transcripts, wellbeing check-ins, screen time, the weekly digest, and the one thing that stays private.
  5. Child safetyWorrying messages get kind words and free helplines straight away; serious concerns alert parents, except when a child may be at risk at home.
  6. Privacy and your dataWhat TutorCat keeps, what it never does, consent age by country, and how to download or delete your data.
