The Derivita Difference

Secondary math is different.
So is Derivita.

Ask questions worth asking

Math develops reasoning, not memorization. That means students need to construct, explain, and justify, not just choose from a list. Derivita is built to ask those questions, and to understand the answers.

Typical platformsLimited to questions with a single, exact, predictable answer. Higher-order and open-ended questions require a math engine to grade, so they simply don't get asked.
DerivitaThe market's most comprehensive digital library of Grades 6–Calculus III questions written by in-house math and curriculum experts, including open-ended, multi-step, and conceptual questions that require real mathematical reasoning.

Vary practice and assessment with mathematical intent

Mastery takes repeated, varied practice across multiple contexts. Derivita provides the depth of questions to support a full rigorous curriculum and the breadth to differentiate, so teachers never run out of meaningful practice or assessments to assign.

Typical platformsThin question banks that repeat quickly. When differentiation, extra practice, or assessment is needed, there's simply nothing left to assign, or the same questions get reused.
DerivitaOur math engine generates problem variations that preserve mathematical intent and consistent difficulty, ensuring students can practice toward mastery and no two students receive the same assessment questions.

Interpret student work flexibly

A student who writes y − 7 = 2(x − 1) isn't wrong, they used point-slope form. Accepting mathematically equivalent answers means students spend their energy on mathematics, not on satisfying a system's formatting rules.

Typical platformsRigid syntax matching means a different-but-equivalent form, added parentheses, or an extra space gets marked wrong. Students learn the system's preferences instead of the mathematics.
DerivitaOur CAS evaluates mathematical equivalence across forms, notations, and solution paths, including open-ended questions with multiple valid answers. Students answer in the language of math, and we understand all of it.

Show students how their answer is being read — before they submit

Students deserve to know how their answer is being read before they submit. A live preview builds trust in the technology, so students focus on the math, not on second-guessing the input.

Typical platformsMathematical notation is inherently ambiguous, i.e., "is 9/x+1 equal to 9/(x+1), or (9/x)+1?" Other systems don't acknowledge that ambiguity. Students are simply marked wrong when the system interprets their expression differently than they intended.
DerivitaA live preview updates on every keystroke, showing students exactly how Derivita is reading their expression before they submit. No surprises, and no lost points to ambiguity.

Provide targeted feedback and accurate grading

The student who added exponents instead of multiplying made a different mistake than the one who got the coefficient wrong. Feedback that speaks to the actual error closes the loop, and grading that understands mathematical equivalence means open-ended responses get scored automatically.

Typical platforms"Incorrect. The correct answer is 12x⁵." Every wrong answer gets the same response. Open-ended questions either can't be graded or require teacher time to score manually.
DerivitaBecause Derivita understands the response, it can address the specific error, distinguishing a conceptual gap from a procedural slip, and grade every valid form of a correct answer automatically.

Build a cumulative record of student understanding, not just a score

The best math teachers already know how every student is doing, because they've seen their entire body of work. They don't wait for a year-end test to tell them where Sally is struggling or where she's thriving. They know because they've seen her homework, her classwork, and her responses all year long.

Typical platformsPractice and assessment are treated as separate activities with data that rarely connects. Teachers are left with a few high-stakes snapshots a year and no clear line between them.
DerivitaEvery practice session, homework set, and assessment contributes to a cumulative record of where each student is and where they're headed, so teachers have the evidence they need to act, not just at test time, but all year long.

Surface insight at every level — from student to district

A question answered by a student is also a data point for a teacher, a PLC, a school leader, and a district. That insight should flow automatically, informing instruction at every level without manual export or separate reporting tools.

Typical platformsData stays in the product that generated it, visible to the student or the teacher, but rarely aggregated in a way that's useful to school and district leaders.
DerivitaReal-time dashboards surface mastery patterns from individual student responses all the way to district-wide benchmarks, giving teachers, PLCs, and leaders a connected, actionable picture of math performance.

"Each question is an individual program. It knows how to randomize itself, do math, create a prompt, take student answers, deliver dynamic feedback without revealing answers, and work through a complete solution. No other secondary math solution takes this approach."

Enhances the curriculum
you already chose.

Most core curricula come bundled with a supplemental product. Derivita is designed to be a better one, without asking your teachers to change a thing. The same frictionless alignment to the curriculum and standards they already know, paired with question quality, flexible grading, and formative data that actually move the needle on student outcomes.

Third-Party Validation

Don't take our word for it. See the results.

A 2026 third-party ESSA Level III study found that each additional Derivita question answered per day was associated with a 13 percentile point improvement on the Derivita math assessment.

That means an average student at the 50th percentile who answered just one additional Derivita question per day would be expected to reach the 63rd percentile.

SEAMLESS LMS INTEGRATION

Reduce training and support.
Increase adoption and impact.

Derivita was co-founded by Devlin Daley, creator of Canvas, and built from the start to live inside and enhance the LMS your teachers and students already know, and use every day.

Step 1

We handle the LMS setup

Your dedicated Derivita Partner Success Manager works directly with your LMS administrator. You don't inherit a project. We handle it, and walk your team through onboarding so everyone starts with confidence.

Step 2

Teachers assign. Students practice.

Inside the LMS teachers already know your teachers, students and leaders access all of their Derivita questions, tools and insights. No new accounts. No new passwords. It just works.

Step 3

You see the district-wide picture

Data aggregates instantly across students, teachers, classrooms, PLCs, and schools. Leaders get visibility to align instruction and surface learning gaps, when it matters, not after.

What district leaders tell us

"We were able to save money by consolidating multiple products into one, reducing training costs, support overhead, and vendor complexity. And we did it while accelerating adoption and seeing significant math gains across the district."
