For parents

Track your child's study progress without standing over them

One email every Sunday at 8 pm: hours actually studied, chapters that improved, the current predicted rank band and one thing worth asking about at dinner. BrainStride is an AI tutor for JEE, NEET and Olympiad preparation that runs a 20-minute diagnostic, maps weak chapters and writes a daily plan, with every solution checked by teachers. Your child sees exactly the same numbers you do.

What most parents are actually trying to find out

Almost every parent question about JEE or NEET preparation comes down to five things, and none of them are answered by a rank printed after a monthly test.

  • Is my child actually studying, or sitting with a book open?
  • Is it working — are the weak chapters getting better, or the same ones every month?
  • Are they aiming at something realistic, or a number that will hurt in June?
  • Is the phone helping or is it another screen?
  • What do I say at dinner that does not turn into an argument?

Every Sunday, 8 pm

See progress without hovering

The weekly summary lands at 8 pm on Sunday: hours actually studied, the chapters that improved, the current predicted rank band and one suggestion worth raising. It takes about a minute to read, and there is no dashboard to check during the week.

Your child sees the same numbers in their own weekly report. Nothing is reported behind their back, which is the only version of this that survives more than a month in a real house.

The predicted rank is deliberately a range, not a single flattering number, and it moves after every mock. A range is easier to talk about than a rank, because it invites a question rather than a verdict.

What happens in the week between two emails

How it works at home

  1. A 20-minute diagnostic, once

    Twenty-five questions calibrated to your child’s class and target exam. It produces the weak-chapter map that everything else is built on — no four-hour test, no syllabus dump.

  2. Ninety minutes a day, written each night

    The plan is re-cut every night around school, coaching and how tired they actually are. A missed day is re-planned rather than added to a backlog.

  3. Doubts answered when they happen

    They photograph the question they are stuck on and get the reasoning in seconds, instead of losing the evening or waiting for the next class.

  4. One email to you on Sunday

    Hours, chapters improved, rank band and one suggestion. That is the whole parent interface — deliberately.

Four questions parents ask us before they ask their child

The honest answers

Will this add more screen time?

It replaces search and messaging time rather than adding to it. Sessions cap at ninety focused minutes and there is no feed to scroll.

Can it replace coaching?

For most students, no — and we will not pretend otherwise. It handles the hours between classes. Students preparing alone do use it as their main plan.

Is the AI ever wrong?

Occasionally, like any tutor. Teachers audit the solution bank before release and weekly afterwards, and one tap sends a questionable answer to a subject mentor.

What happens to my child’s data?

Attempts teach their own study plan and nothing else. BrainStride does not sell data to third parties, shows no ads, and everything can be exported or deleted from settings.

What you can see, and what you cannot

Being clear about this early prevents the argument later. The weekly email is a summary for parents, not a surveillance tool, and your child knows exactly what it contains.

Parent questions

How can I track my child's study progress without nagging?

BrainStride sends parents one email every Sunday at 8 pm with hours actually studied, chapters that improved, the current predicted rank band and one suggestion worth discussing. There is no dashboard to check during the week, and your child sees the same numbers, so the weekly email replaces the daily question rather than adding to it.

My child already has too many screens. Will this add more?

BrainStride replaces search and messaging time rather than adding to it. Sessions cap at ninety focused minutes, there is no feed to scroll, and parents get a weekly email of hours studied, chapters covered and mocks taken — so you can see progress without checking a phone yourself.

Does my child know what is in the parent email?

Yes. Your child sees the same numbers in their own weekly report: hours studied, chapters improved and the predicted rank band. Nothing is reported behind their back. The parent email is a summary, not a log of every question attempted or every doubt photographed — those stay in your child’s own report.

Is the predicted rank reliable?

It is an honest range, not a promise. BrainStride updates the predicted rank band after every mock and shows the two chapters that would move it most. Treat a change over three or four weeks as the signal, not a single week, and remember that any rank prediction is an estimate rather than an official figure from NTA.

Can BrainStride replace my child’s coaching class?

For most students, no — and we will not pretend otherwise. Coaching gives a teacher and a schedule. BrainStride handles what happens after class: what to practise, why answers went wrong, and doubts at odd hours. Students preparing entirely on their own do use BrainStride as their main plan.

What does BrainStride do with my child’s data?

Attempts teach your child’s own study plan and nothing else. BrainStride does not sell data to third parties and shows no ads, and everything can be exported or deleted from settings. If you have a question about data, write to hello@brainstride.co and a mentor will reply.

How much does it cost, and can we stop?

The Starter plan is free forever, including the diagnostic, the weak-chapter map and the Sunday all-India mock. Focus costs ₹899 a month, or ₹749 a month billed yearly, and includes the parent email and the nightly plan. You can cancel in one tap and access runs to the end of the period you paid for.

One email on Sunday beats asking every evening.

Let your child take the twenty-minute diagnostic on the free plan, then read the first weekly report together.
