How It Works: Sign Up, Onboard and Start Learning

Register, answer seven short questions, choose tonight’s homework and start. The full Saving Grace AI journey — onboarding, sessions, exam prep and readiness — step by step.

Three steps to understanding.

Before the detail, the shape of it. Every session with Grace is the same natural back-and-forth, whether it is a Grade 2 reading exercise or a Grade 12 calculus problem.

1

Ask

The student asks Grace a question or uploads their homework, explaining where they’re stuck.

2

Guide

Grace breaks the problem down, explains concepts simply, and asks guiding questions.

3

Master

By answering, the student does the heavy lifting, spots the pattern, and builds lasting confidence.

From sign-up to the first “oh, I get it.”

Six steps, start to finish. Most families are through the first three in under five minutes.

About a minute

Register — no card needed

Create the account with an email address. Every account starts with three days free, and there are no card details taken up front, so nothing rolls over by accident.

Seven short questions

Grace gets to know your child

A short onboarding, written for the child rather than the parent: what should Grace call you, how do you like to learn, which subjects do you enjoy, which ones feel tricky, how confident do you feel right now, what are you struggling with, and what would you love to achieve.

The answers shape how Grace explains things from the very first session — a learner who picks seeing it gets diagrams and worked layouts; one who picks doing it gets led question by question.

  • Seeing it
  • Hearing it
  • Doing it
  • Reading it
  • A bit of everything
Every session

Choose what you need today

Three ways in, chosen at the start of each session: a tutor session to learn a topic, homework help to work through tonight’s worksheet step by step, or test & exam prep. Then pick the grade and the subject, and Grace opens in the right place.

The heart of it

Work through it with Grace

A real back-and-forth, by voice or by typing. Grace asks before it tells, checks that each step landed, and hands the next question back to your child. Photograph a worksheet and it works from that, so there is no retyping a page of sums.

Ask the same thing four times and nothing changes — no sighing, no clock, no sense of being a burden. That is usually the point at which children start asking properly.

Before the test

Practise the way the school assesses

Three formats, all CAPS-aligned: a quick quiz of six questions, a practice test of ten that runs like a real class test, or targeted revision on specific topics. Everything is marked immediately and comes back with a readiness score.

For the parent

See whether they are actually ready

Readiness per subject, split into what needs work and what is already a strength, plus a history of every assessment taken. The question a report card answers in June, answered in the week you can still do something about it.

What a session actually sounds like.

Grace does not read out the answer. It works the way a patient teacher works: one step, one check, then the pen goes back to the child.

Voice in and voice out, so a Grade 2 learner who cannot yet type a full question can still use it — and a Grade 11 learner can ask “but why does that work?” without typing an essay.

  • Voice in and out
  • Photo upload
  • Step-by-step method
  • Checks understanding

I don’t get why you flip the inequality sign.

Let’s test it. Is 4 > 2 true?

Yes.

Now multiply both sides by −1. What do you get, and is it still true?

−4 > −2… no, that’s wrong.

Right — so the sign has to flip. You just proved it yourself.

What you need to get going.

  • Any device with a browser — phone, tablet or laptop. Nothing to install.
  • An email address. No card details for the trial.
  • Your child’s grade, so the content matches their CAPS phase.
  • Tonight’s actual homework. That is the real test of whether it helps.

A word on the Foundation Phase. Grades 1 to 3 work best with a parent sitting alongside. Grace reads aloud and prompts rather than lecturing, but a six-year-old still needs someone next to them for the first few sessions.

What it looks like at home.

Three days free, seven short questions, and then Grace is simply there — on the laptop, the tablet or a phone.

Questions about getting started.

How long does setting up take?

Registration is about a minute, and the onboarding is seven short questions your child answers themselves. Most families are asking Grace a real homework question within five minutes.

Does my child need to type?

No. Grace is voice enabled in both directions, so a learner can speak the question and hear the explanation. Typing and photo upload are there for those who prefer them.

Can I change the grade or subject later?

Yes. Grade and subject are chosen at the start of every session, so a learner can move between subjects, or work a grade below on a topic they missed, without changing any settings.

What happens after the three free days?

Nothing automatic — there are no card details on file. You choose a plan if the trial was worth it, and if it was not, the account simply stops.

Can more than one child use one account?

Each learner gets their own onboarding and their own progress history, so their readiness scores stay separate. Get in touch and we will set up the right arrangement for your household.

Ready when you are.

Tell us about your child, and we’ll help you find the fit. Leaving no learner behind.
