# Find the One Idea Behind Your Stuck Homework — Free

Paste a problem you're stuck on plus your attempt, and get the likely confusion in the margin — which concept to check, which step went sideways, and a retry ladder. Runs in your browser.

**Free and complete.** This guide is a standalone free tool — no account, no card, anywhere. The only paid option is one optional extra outcome: $4 one-time. Nothing in the free tier is gated.

## Who it's for

Students stuck on a math or science problem who can't tell whether the error is arithmetic, a missing concept, or a misread of the question

## What's free

- Diagnose the likely confusion from a pasted problem and attempt
- A 5-point margin checklist for the matched topic
- A retry ladder that walks one step at a time

## Optional paid add-on

**$4 one-time.**

- Saved confusion log — problems and fixes kept in this browser — estimate: ~15 min saved before an exam.
- Study-sheet export — your log as a one-page review sheet — estimate: ~12 min saved.
- Marked-up copy — print the problem with margin notes attached — estimate: ~8 min saved.

## Sources & verification

- Tool: Local keyword-diagnostic helper (no model needed)
- Primary source: the free tool itself (local-first, no external dependency)
