Carnegie Learning's LiveHint AItm Wins "AI Innovation Award" in 2024 EdTech Breakthrough Awards Program

Carnegie Learning, a leader in AI-driven technology, curriculum, and professional learning solutions for K-12 education, today announced that LiveHint AI has been recognized with the "AI Innovation Award" in the 6^th annual EdTech Breakthrough Awards program conducted by EdTech Breakthrough, a leading market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies and solutions in the global educational technology market. The company's MATHstream solution was recognized as "Adaptive Learning Solution of the Year" in 2023.

LiveHint AItm is the first generative AI math tutor trained to think like a student built on a large language model informed by 25 years of proprietary data, designed to help students dramatically accelerate their progress in middle and high school math. Drawing insights from the experiences of 5.5 million students tackling over 1.2 billion math problems, LiveHint AI's focus is on fostering comprehension rather than mere problem-solving.

This ground-breaking product transforms how students learn math and is the latest innovation from Carnegie Learning, one of the world's 150 most innovative ed-tech companies. Unlike other AI-based math tools that are trained on how math is traditionally taught, LiveHint AI is trained on how students learn best. It doesn't just give answers, but helps students truly understand math concepts.

"LiveHint AI is a revolutionary GenAI math tutor that is positioned to transform how students learn," said Carnegie Learning CEO Barry Malkin. "With this award, we celebrate our commitment to providing every student with a personalized educational experience. This recognition is a testament to the dedication and expertise of our team in creating a product that makes a real difference in students' lives. LiveHint AI is the 1st of many new and exciting innovations Carnegie Learning is bringing to market."

"LiveHint AI is the smart virtual teacher's assistant that every student needs. There's a 'productive struggle' inherent in learning math. It's not just the right answer, it's how to and why to arrive at the right answer. By helping a student's brain work at its strategic and conceptual peak, they not only arrive at the right answer, they also understand why that answer is right," said Steve Johansson, managing director, EdTech Breakthrough. "Because of its sensitivity to local context, prior knowledge, the arc of instruction, and historical data, LiveHint AI delivers safe, accurate, reliable, and effective tutoring, therefore deserving the AI Innovation Award!"

The mission of the EdTech Breakthrough Awards is to honor excellence and recognize the innovation, hard work and success in a range of educational technology categories, including Student Engagement, School Administration, Adaptive Learning, STEM Education, Remote Learning, Career Preparation and many more. This year's program attracted more than 2,400 nominations from over 16 different countries throughout the world.
