What makes ClassMinds work for STEM
Math & symbols
The AI handles LaTeX-style math in your notes. Ask "walk me through this proof step by step" and it follows the structure your prof used, not a textbook substitute.
Lab notes & PDFs
Drop in lab manuals, problem sets, or scanned diagrams (text PDFs work best). The AI grounds answers in those exact documents.
Code-heavy slides
If your CS prof's slides have actual code, ClassMinds can reference specific lines and explain what they do — using your prof's variable names and conventions.

STEM-specific questions
Does ClassMinds handle LaTeX or math notation?
Yes for input — the AI reads math symbols in your uploaded notes. Output matches the conventions of whatever's in your source material. Native LaTeX rendering in the iOS app is on the roadmap.
What about scanned / handwritten notes?
Text-based PDFs work best (lecture slides, problem sets). Scanned PDFs without OCR are partially supported — the AI gets less to work with. Apple Pencil handwriting support is on the roadmap.
Can it solve a problem set for me?
It can walk you through a problem using your professor's framing. Whether that's allowed under your academic integrity policy is up to you and your syllabus. ClassMinds isn't an answer-mill.
How does it compare to Wolfram Alpha?
Wolfram is a computational engine — give it an integral, get the answer. ClassMinds is a study assistant — give it your notes, get explanations matching how your prof teaches it. Different tools.
I'm a math major, will the AI hallucinate proofs?
The whole point of grounding the AI in your notes is to reduce hallucination. It still happens occasionally — always verify against your textbook. Source-linked answers make this much easier than ChatGPT.
