For Parents

Know your child
is actually learning.

Epivo gives your child a patient, knowledgeable tutor available every day — and gives you the transparency to see what's really happening with their education.

Real progress tracking

See mastery maps, session summaries, and which topics your child has shown they understand.

Safe and focused

Epivo is purpose-built for learning. No social feeds, no ads in the app, no strangers to talk to — just your child and their tutor.

Consistent practice

The app builds a habit of regular, short study sessions. Ten minutes a day compounds faster than monthly cramming.

Curriculum-aligned content

Epivo offers courses aligned with California state standards and other curricula — so sessions can reinforce what teachers are covering. Epivo courses and certificates are a learning aid, not an official qualification.

Can you trust what the tutor says?

AI can say things that sound right and aren't, so it's a fair question. Here is what we do about it — and where the limits are.

Courses are written in advance; the tutor's own words are generated live in each conversation. Before the written lesson material is taught, an AI checks its key facts against independent published sources, and a second AI independently re-checks anything the first one finds wrong. Errors are corrected or the material is removed, and anything the two disagree about is held back.

The tutor is instructed to teach from that material, never to invent facts, dates or quotes, and to say so when it isn't sure. That is an instruction, not a guarantee.

You can check for yourself. In the app, your child can tap Sources in the lesson menu and pick a session to see the material it drew on, including links to the original sources. In the parent portal, a topic's Lesson tab shows its written lesson, where one exists, and the sources it lists.

How we handle difficult history

War, persecution and atrocity are part of history, and a tutor that tiptoes around them is not teaching it. Epivo covers this material properly — which means some of the film that goes with it is hard to watch.

So we sort that footage into three levels. Most of it is simply history, and anyone can see it. Footage that is distressing but not graphic — troops coming ashore under fire, a family being deported — is for 13 and over. Footage of bodies, or of people in severe distress, is for 16 and over.

Those two ages are our own judgement. No ratings board or curriculum sets them; we drew the lines, and we would rather tell you exactly where they are than leave it vague. If we don't know how old your child is, they see only the first level — not knowing always means seeing less, never more. Add your child in the parent portal and we have their date of birth from the first session.
