Socratic is a Google tool designed to help high school and college students better comprehend course material. To assist students in finding relevant instructional content on the web and sites like YouTube, it employs Google's AI and search tools.

Socratic is there to help students anytime they need it. It is still possible for pupils to learn even when they don't have access to teachers, tutors, or parents.

Socratic discovers the best available web resources when students use their voice or camera to seek help with a question. Expert-created Socratic study guides, videos, and extensive explanations cover the basics of many subjects.

The question-and-answer format of Socratic encourages independent study. They determine the topics they're struggling with, the tools they'll employ, and the approach that will yield the best results for their education.
