Online tutoring, minus the booking
Porphy is an AI tutor, not a marketplace of human tutors. There is no slot to book, no hourly rate and nobody to wait for. It researches your topic on the live web, writes a course from what it finds with the sources attached, then explains any line of it out loud on a whiteboard — in বাংলা or English — while you are still looking at the page. Every new account starts with 2,000 credits free, with no card and no subscription.

What tutoring asks of you
None of it is anyone's fault. It is what happens when help has to be scheduled, and the moment you need it never is.
What a session looks like here
Give it the topic, or your lecture sheet
Type the chapter you're stuck on, or upload the PDF you were handed. A few short questions place you at the level you're actually at.
It researches, then writes the course
A planner splits the topic, 5 researchers read the web in parallel, and a critic sends thin sections back before you see them. Every part carries its sources.
Get stuck, highlight, hear it explained
The voice tutor picks up in seconds and talks you through that line while it draws. Then practise it with MCQs and flashcards.
Not priced by the hour
Prepaid credits. 1,000 credits = $1 ≈ ৳125, metered at the AI provider's own list price with nothing added on top.
Where a person is still better
- A tutor in the room notices you have stopped trying. Nothing here does, and no software honestly can.
- A teacher who has marked your scripts for a year knows which mistake you keep making. Porphy knows what its concept map has seen — real, but narrower.
- Someone accountable to your parents is a form of pressure. This is a tool; it will not chase you.
Most students who use both keep the tutor for the two days a week they have one — and use this for the other five, when the question actually turns up.
Tutoring questions
Not in the usual sense. A tutoring platform matches you with a person and sells you their hours — you book a slot, you wait for it, and you pay for the time whether or not you needed the whole hour. Porphy is an AI tutor: it is open whenever you are stuck, it researches the topic before it teaches it, and it explains any line out loud on a whiteboard in Bangla or English. There is no booking, no schedule and no hourly rate.
For the part most private tuition is actually spent on — re-explaining a chapter you did not follow in class, working through problems, and quizzing you before an exam — yes, and at any hour. What it does not do is sit in your room, notice you have stopped trying, or answer to your parents. If a student needs someone physically present to keep them working, a person is still the right answer, and Porphy is the thing that fills the six days a week that person is not there.
It is not priced by the hour at all, which is the real difference. You buy prepaid credits and spend them only on what you use: a full researched course on a subject runs about 600–1,200 credits, an MCQ set or flashcard deck 10–30, one question about your chapter 1–5, and the live voice tutor 20–60 credits a minute. 1,000 credits cost roughly ৳125, credits never expire, and a week you do not study costs you nothing.
No. You open the app, highlight the line you are stuck on, and the tutor is talking within seconds. That is the entire reason this exists: the moment a student actually needs help is 11pm the night before a test, which is exactly when no tutoring platform has anyone available.
It is not limited to a list of subjects a tutor happens to teach. It researches whatever topic you give it on the live web and writes the course from what it finds — SSC and HSC board subjects, admission-test topics, first- and second-year undergraduate courses, and topics your teacher skipped entirely. You can also upload your own lecture sheet or a chapter as a PDF and every tool works on that instead.
Every part of a course ships with the sources it was written from, so you can check any claim against the original — which is more than you can usually do with a tutor. Before you see anything, a critic agent reviews the plan and sends thin sections back for another research pass, and you can ask for any section to be rewritten, expanded, or explained more simply.
Yes, including out loud. The lesson is written in Bangla and the voice tutor speaks it, while technical terms stay in English — derivative, tangent, entropy — so what you learn matches your textbook and what you will write in your exam script. Nine tutor voices, each with a Bangla sample you can play before choosing one.
It runs in any modern browser, including on a phone, and there is nothing to install. The voice tutor needs a microphone and a working connection; everything else — reading, practice, the concept map — works on whatever screen you have.
There is a free budget rather than a countdown. Every new account gets 2,000 credits free with no card asked for, and they never expire — enough for a full researched course, several minutes with the voice tutor, ten practice sets and dozens of questions. Free accounts run a slightly reduced research pipeline so those credits last longer.
