Hey Product Hunt! I'm Justin, the founder of HintStep.
I built this because I was tired of the nightly homework battle. My daughter would ask for help, I'd either give her the answer just to get through it, or I'd have no idea where to start. Neither felt good.
So I built HintStep. It's simple — you snap a photo of the homework, and it coaches you through guiding your child step by step. No answers. Just the right questions to help them figure it out on their own.
The moment my daughter solved a problem by herself and said "I actually get it" — that's when I knew this was worth building.
It supports all 50 US states' education standards, works in 14 languages, and gives parents a cheat sheet so you understand the material too.
I'd love your feedback. And if you're a parent who dreads homework time — give it a try. Your first 5 scans are free.
