Level Up Math Targets Remedial Gaps for 1.5 Million Students

The platform addresses a significant disconnect between parental perception and academic reality, as nearly nine in ten parents believe their children are performing on grade level despite widespread deficits. The system operates by mapping student performance across five Common Core domains, generating reports that pinpoint specific skills requiring immediate intervention. Founder Mihai Seceleanu notes that student struggles rarely stem from an inability to learn, but rather from unresolved foundational gaps that require targeted, structured practice rather than repetitive drills.

To facilitate long-term retention, the software utilizes spaced repetition, revisiting core concepts over extended intervals. Each problem includes detailed explanations of common errors, providing students with immediate feedback on their specific mistakes. The platform intentionally avoids gamification mechanics like leaderboards or streaks, opting instead for a parent-child collaborative model that emphasizes goal-setting and external rewards. Privacy is a central focus, with the service maintaining COPPA and GDPR compliance by limiting data collection to a child's first name and grade level.

Users can access the initial assessment and diagnostic reports at no cost. Continued access to the platform’s library of over 2,000 Common Core-aligned skills is priced at $14.99 per month, with options for sibling discounts and a 30-day money-back guarantee. By focusing on the specific "detective work" of identifying missed concepts from previous grade levels, the company aims to provide a cost-effective alternative to traditional tutoring services.
