Sigma Learn
AI tutor & marking

An AI tutor that has read the page you are on.

Ask AI opens beside a lesson or a question and already knows what you are looking at. It explains, gives you another one to try, and marks written answers against the real mark scheme.

No account needed to look around.

Ask AI

Ask about this step, not the whole subject.

Because Ask AI knows the lesson or the question in front of you, you can ask the short question you actually have — “why minus nine?” — and get an answer about that line.

  • On every lesson and every question, one button away
  • Explains, re-explains and sets you a similar problem
  • Has its own page for longer conversations
AI marking

Know which marks you dropped, and why.

Written, drawn and handwritten answers are checked against each marking point of the paper’s own mark scheme. You see the points you earned and the ones you missed.

  • Marked point by point, not just “right” or “wrong”
  • The mark scheme is shown, so you can check the marking yourself
  • Handwritten working can be marked too

How the AI works

Runs on Google Gemini

Ask AI and AI marking both use Google’s Gemini models.

Free with your own key

On the Free plan, or as a guest, paste your own Gemini API key in Settings. It is kept in your browser only and sent just with AI requests.

Included with Pro

On Pro, Ask AI and AI marking are included — there is no key to set up.

Check it yourself

AI can be wrong. The solution and the mark scheme are always on the question so you can verify what it says.

Questions

About the AI

Do I need to pay to use the AI?
No. With your own Google Gemini API key, Ask AI and AI marking work on the Free plan and even as a guest. On the Pro plan they are included, so you do not need a key.
Where is my API key stored?
In your browser only. It is sent with your AI requests and is not saved to your Sigma Learn account.
Is there a limit to the AI on Pro?
Pro’s AI has a weekly fair-use limit, shown in Settings → AI. If you ever reach it, AI pauses until Monday — or keeps working on your own key if you have added one.
Is everything else usable without AI?
Yes. Lessons, flashcards, interactives, and every question that is not a written answer are marked without it, and solutions are always available.
