Breaking School Subjects into Skills
Squirrel AI built its tutoring around adaptive learning for K–12 students. A learner's answers help the system decide which skill needs more work, so the sequence of practice can differ between two students studying the same subject.

Planning Practice and Answering Homework Questions
Question AI begins with the problem a student brings to it. Squirrel AI uses a sequence of activities to work through gaps in a subject. The relevant difference is whether the software is filling an immediate need or guiding practice over time.
