Smartick are looking for Mumsnet users and their children to trial its online after-school maths programme for children. This product test is open to all UK MNers with at least one child between the ages of 4 and 14, that have access to an internet-enabled computer/laptop or tablet. Selected testers will receive a six-month subscription (a value of over £100) to Smartick after testing is completed and have up to 4 weeks to try and review it.

Here’s what Smartick have to say: “Smartick is an award-winning, AI-based, online maths programme designed to develop mathematical abilities in children ages 4 to 14. Smartick promotes an understanding of maths through personalised and accelerated learning by adapting to each child's level and learning pace in real time, allowing them to work according to their maths needs and capability. Each child has a unique and personalised path that constantly adjusts to help fill in gaps in knowledge.

There are more than 20,000 users of Smartick in over 100 countries. e've collaborated with the MIT G-Lab and been published by Harvard Business Review and Forbes as well as featured as an app favourite by Apple.”

Selected testers can register for the program through a web browser on their PC or by downloading the Smartick app available for iOS or Android tablets. Smartick recommends that children work on their daily 15-minute sessions at least 5 days per week. This is not mandatory however it is suggested to get a better scope of the program.

All testers will be required to leave feedback on a thread on Mumsnet and also fill in a short survey, everyone who does will be entered into a prize draw where 3 MNers will win a £100 voucher of their choice (from a list).

Hi @DC3dilemma

We are always up front about geographical recruitment and any restrictions about this are often due to postage restrictions. The majority are UK only, however the selection process is random so it's just chance that you haven't been selected.

Hi Everyone, thank you for taking part in the service test and apologies if there was any confusion around the subscription, please see the explanation here:

"Everyone (meaning general public, MN users, anyone who signs up) get their first 2 weeks free, however as this is a MN trial all testers will receive a 6 month free subscription on top of this 2 weeks. Smartick cannot add this 6 month free subscription until your child has completed their first session. As you have a 6 month subscription, you have 4 weeks to test it out"

Thank you for also leaving feedback as you go, however this is not the right place to leave your feedback as there will be a feedback thread towards the end of the 4 week testing period. Please do not post your feedback here, as you will be asked to post your feedback again on the official feedback thread in a couple of weeks time.

If you have any questions they can always contact Smartick directly at 020 8068 8581 and at [email protected]

Hi @Marmablade, @Bigkiteflying & @Mimsyborogroves

Smartick would like to respond to your queries around the friend requests function with the following:

"Thanks so much for trialling our online maths programme. Kids cannot chat with any friends in their Virtual World – they can only challenge them to maths competitions if they'd like. There is no actual dialogue or chat functionality within the system. Your child does not have to accept any friend requests. Just a quick reminder: consistency is key to ensure your children get the most out of the programme and better ensure the AI adapts to their level accordingly. Please don’t hesitate to email or call the Smartick team at hello@smartickmethod com or +44 20 8068 8581."
