Everything You Need to Know — Complete FAQ
Absolutely free, with no hidden fees or subscription requirements. Our mission is to make quality chemistry education accessible to every high school and college student. No limits on the number of problems you can solve.
Our algorithm handles all reaction types: simple synthesis and decomposition, complex substitution and double displacement, multi-step redox reactions with multiple oxidizing agents, organic reactions (substitution, addition, elimination), ionic equations in aqueous solutions, coordination complex reactions, nuclear reactions, and biochemical pathways.
We use advanced OCR technology with machine learning specifically trained on chemical formulas and equations. Recognizes clear handwriting, textbook formulas, whiteboard problems, and laboratory notebook entries. For best results, photograph in bright light with the camera perpendicular to the page.
Our calculation accuracy meets scientific publication standards — error margin less than 0.01%. Algorithms verified against thousands of problems from leading textbooks like Atkins, Chang, and Zumdahl. However, for critically important calculations, we recommend double-checking — we're a learning tool, not a replacement for professional software.
Our intelligent analyzer detects stoichiometric errors, mass and charge conservation violations, and thermodynamically impossible processes. Instead of meaningless results, you get clear explanations of the problems and specific suggestions for corrections with detailed error identification.
Complete confidentiality guaranteed — we don't store uploaded images, entered formulas, or calculation results. All data is processed in encrypted form and deleted immediately after providing answers. No tracking cookies, no user profiles, complete privacy protection.
