Your child isn’t studying too little. They’re just studying it alone.
The problem isn’t laziness. There’s no time to explain in class — and at home, you’re suddenly the one who has to.
11:40 pmSunday
You explained it. For hours.
Patient at first, then louder, then tears. Not because anyone failed — but because parents aren’t teachers. The evening is gone either way.
Question 1Test
Fine at home. Not in the test.
You quizzed them the night before: every answer right. Then the test asks it in different words and nothing is there. Recognizing isn’t knowing, and nobody sees that in advance.
againNext test
And you find out last.
The gap only shows up when the grade comes home. Then it’s finding a tutor, fitting the sessions in, hoping — and before the next test it starts over.
Zeno reads your child’s material once and builds everything that would otherwise cost you both an evening.

Six problems have become six solutions.
Set it up once. Your child does the rest.
You create the account
Two minutes, once. No appointments to book, no weekly slot — Zeno waits until your child needs it.
Your child uploads work
A worksheet, a PDF or a link — any subject turns into flashcards, quizzes, study sheets and practice tests.
And you’re off duty
The tutor explains, quizzes and gets them ready — as often as your child asks. No fights, no sitting beside them.
Zeno splits the material into topics and lays them across the days up to the test. What today holds, the plan says — not you.

“Mom, I think I can actually do this.”
My son started telling me at some point that he was “just bad at math.” Last week he came to me after he’d been studying and said: “Mom, I think I can actually do this.” Of course I’m glad about the better grade — but that sentence was honestly worth so much more to me ❤️

“I don’t have to keep chasing him any more”
Before a test we used to have the same argument almost every evening: Have you studied yet? What else do you still need to know? Now our son sees for himself where his gaps are and works through those topics on his own. I don’t have to keep chasing him any more and things at home are much calmer now :)

“This is how digital learning support should work.”
As a teacher I was pretty sceptical about an AI study app at first. It mattered to me that my daughter isn’t just handed finished answers, but really has to think for herself. That’s exactly what I like about Zeno: the explanations help her along without doing the thinking for her. This is how digital learning support should work.

“That takes a huge amount of pressure off both of us.”
When it comes to chemistry I have to admit that as a mother I tapped out a while ago 😅 That used to be frustrating, because my daughter had questions and I just couldn’t really help her any more. Now she can have the difficult topics explained to her as often and as simply as she needs. That takes a huge amount of pressure off both of us.

“These days she sometimes sits down on her own”
I used to have to remind my daughter three times just to get her started at all. These days she sometimes sits down on her own, because she wants to keep her progress going. Wouldn’t have thought that a study app of all things would be the thing to flip that switch :D

“With Zeno pretty much the opposite happened”
My biggest worry with AI was that our son would just quickly copy answers off it and end up understanding even less. With Zeno pretty much the opposite happened: he answers questions himself, sees where he got things wrong, and suddenly goes through the material far more carefully. That really won me over.

What parents want to know first.
Your child gives Zeno their own material — a worksheet, a PDF or a YouTube link. It comes back as a structured note, flashcards, quizzes, study sheets and practice exams. All of it out of their own lessons, none of it out of somebody else’s database.
ChatGPT answers questions — including the ones your child would be better off answering themselves. Zeno is built for studying: it works from your child’s own school material, turns it into flashcards, quizzes and practice exams, tests them on it and explains step by step. The goal isn’t a finished answer, it’s the next test.
Yes. Zeno doesn’t write anything for your child — it turns their own material into study material. That’s what a highlighter and a stack of index cards do, only faster, and nobody has ever called those cheating. The only thing to check is your school’s own rules on phones and laptops in class, which apply to Zeno the same as to anything else.
All of them, as long as there’s something to upload. Zeno reads what your child gives it — a biology worksheet at thirteen just as readily as lecture notes at university. So the material is automatically whatever their school actually teaches, and the terminology stays the way it comes up in class instead of being paraphrased into something more general. English and German both work.
No. Zeno runs in the browser, on their phone the same as on a laptop — nothing to install, the same account on both. A mobile app is in the works; until then you can add the site to the home screen and it behaves like one.
It stays theirs. Individual files can be deleted at any time, and deleting the account takes everything in it along. That isn’t us being generous — it’s Article 17 GDPR, the right to erasure, and it works the same on every account. We have to be able to do it, and we can.
