Terms of Use
In plain language: what you may and may not do, why answers carry no warranty, and why every result needs checking.
The short version
- Use MathGPT.now to learn, teach, and solve problems lawfully. That is the whole permitted use.
- Answers come with no warranty. Some of them will be wrong, and you must check every result before you rely on it.
- Your school's rules beat this page. If your teacher or exam board says no, the answer is no.
- Do not pass off generated work as your own writing, and do not use the site during a live or proctored test.
What you agree to by using the site
By opening MathGPT.now you accept these terms. They are written to be read, not to be skipped, so they are short and plain. Nothing here costs money and there is no contract to sign, but there are still rules, because the site is shared with a lot of other learners. If you do not agree with a rule below, the right response is to stop using the feature it applies to. The privacy policy is a separate page and covers what happens to your data.
Things you may do
This list is broad on purpose. Almost every honest use of a math site is allowed.
- Use the calculators, guides, and formula library for homework, revision, teaching, or your own curiosity.
- Use the AI tutor to understand a method, get unstuck on one step, or check work you have already attempted.
- Show the site to a class, link to any page, or put a link in a worksheet. No permission is needed.
- Take a screenshot of a page for a lesson, as long as it is clear where it came from.
Things you must not do
These are the lines. Crossing one can get your access removed without notice.
- Do not use the site during a live, timed, or proctored assessment where outside help is not allowed.
- Do not hand in a generated solution as if you wrote it yourself.
- Do not run scripts, scrapers, or bots against the site. There is no public API, as the API page explains.
- Do not try to break the sign-in, get at other people's accounts, or pull out hidden instructions.
- Do not upload unlawful material, or other people's private information.
- Do not republish our guides or practice sets as your own content.
Answers come with no warranty
This is the most important paragraph on the page, so it gets said without hedging. MathGPT.now is provided as it is. We do not promise that any answer is correct, that any page is complete, that any tool is available, or that the site fits your particular purpose. AI-generated explanations can be confidently wrong. They can misread a photo, drop a restriction, invent a missing number, or make an arithmetic slip in step two that survives to the last line and still looks tidy. To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for loss that comes from relying on something you read here.
Where the risk is highest
Errors are not spread evenly. These are the situations where an answer deserves the most suspicion.
- Problems with excluded values, such as an equation where a denominator could be zero.
- Problems with more than one valid answer, where one gets quietly dropped.
- Photos of handwriting, where 5 and S, or a small exponent, are easy to misread.
- Word problems with units, where the number is right but the unit is not.
- Anything where money, safety, health, or a legal deadline depends on the result. Do not use this site for those.
You have to check the answer
Because there is no warranty, verification is not optional politeness; it is part of using the tool correctly. Every tutor answer is built with a Check section for this reason. The check takes about a minute and catches most of what goes wrong. Substitute the answer into the first line of the original problem, not into your last simplified line, because a mistake made early survives and still looks consistent. Then look at the size and the sign: a discount cannot be bigger than the price, and a length cannot be negative. The help center has the full routine, and the graphing calculator is the quickest second opinion for anything you can plot.
A one-minute check
Run these four steps before you write an answer down as final.
- Put the answer back into the original problem and see whether both sides match.
- Check the units and the sign, out loud if that helps.
- Graph it, or estimate it roughly, and see whether the answer lands where you expected.
- Ask for a second method and compare the two results.
Schoolwork and academic honesty
Using a tool is not the same as being allowed to use it. Your school, college, instructor, exam board, or employer sets rules about outside help, and those rules win over anything on this page. If you are not sure whether a solver is allowed for a piece of work, ask the person who set it before you use one, not after. Submitting AI-written reasoning as your own is misrepresenting authorship, and most institutions treat that as a serious offence regardless of what any website's terms say. The academic integrity page goes through where the line usually sits and how to disclose help when it is required.
Common situations, sorted out
Most questions people email us about are one of these. The table below is guidance under these terms; your course rules can still be stricter.
| What you want to do | Allowed by these terms? | What to do first |
|---|---|---|
| Use a calculator for homework | Yes | Nothing. They are free and need no account. |
| Upload a photo of your own worksheet | Yes | Sign in first, then crop out names and anything private. |
| Use the tutor during a live or proctored test | No | Close it. This is the clearest rule on the page. |
| Hand in a generated solution as your own writing | No | Rewrite the method yourself, and disclose the help if your course requires it. |
| Run a script or scraper against the site | No | There is no public API. Email [email protected] and say what you need. |
| Republish a guide on another website | No, not without asking | Email us with the page and where you want to use it. |
| Rely on an answer for a money, safety, or medical decision | No | Check it a second way and ask a qualified person. |
Accounts, changes, and endings
Sign-in is through Google, and you are responsible for keeping that Google account secure. We can suspend or remove access if the rules above are broken, especially where other learners are affected. You can stop at any time: sign out, ask us to delete your account row, and clear your browser storage. We may change these terms as the site changes, and the updated page is the version that applies from the day it is published. Anything not covered here is covered by the privacy policy. Questions about these terms go to [email protected] with the section you are asking about.
The safest way to work
There is one workflow that keeps you clear of every rule on this page. Attempt the problem yourself first. Use the tool for the one step you are stuck on. Check the result by substituting it back into the original problem. Say you used help when your course requires it. If a school, employer, contest, or exam rule is stricter than anything written here, that rule wins, every time. When you are not sure whether something is permitted, stop and ask the person who set the work before you use the tool, not after.
Questions people ask about this page
Are you promising the answers are correct?
No, and we will not pretend otherwise. The service is provided as it is, with no warranty of accuracy or fitness for a purpose. Some answers will be wrong. That is why every tutor response ends with a Check section and why the help center teaches a one-minute verification routine. Treat an answer as a strong hint you still have to confirm.
Can I use MathGPT.now during an exam?
Not during a live, timed, or proctored assessment where outside help is not permitted. That is a rule of these terms as well as of nearly every school. Use it before the exam, to rehearse and to fix the methods you keep getting wrong. The test practice page covers how to rehearse properly.
Who owns the answer the tutor writes for me?
You are free to use the worked solution for your own learning. What you must not do is present it as writing you produced yourself where authorship matters. Our guides, practice sets, and page copy stay ours; do not republish them elsewhere without asking.
What happens if I break these terms?
In most cases nothing dramatic, because most breaches are accidents. Where a rule is broken repeatedly or deliberately, and especially where it degrades the site for other students, access can be removed without notice. Automated abuse is the case we act on fastest, because it costs money and slows the site down for everyone.
