Problem
Many high school students preparing for the Digital SAT face either costly private‑tutor services or free resources that lack adaptive feedback, engagement, and precise alignment with the current exam format. This results in inefficient study habits and suboptimal score improvements.

An AI‑driven score predictor refines its accuracy with each answered question, delivering results within ±20 points of the actual exam. The platform layers video explanations, targeted practice modules, and a gamified learning loop (XP, streaks, leaderboards) to motivate daily study. All content is accessible via web, iOS, and Android apps, with progress synced in real time. A free Discord community and live study sessions provide peer support, while educators gain admin dashboards and group pricing to monitor classroom performance. The service is offered at a flat subscription price, eliminating hidden fees and private‑tutor costs.
