REDWOOD CITY, Calif., June 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Course Hero, the popular online study platform serving over 225,000 educators and millions of students, today announced that its AI Homework Help solution has been selected as winner of the "Best AI-based Solution for Education" award in the seventh annual AI Breakthrough Awards program conducted by AI Breakthrough, a leading market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies and products in the global Artificial Intelligence (AI) market today.

AI Homework Help allows students to upload documents and quickly receive recommended resources and explanations to help expand on their study materials. The breakthrough solution connects students to quality course-specific resources. Homework Help is accessible in a variety of ways including through the mobile app, chatting with an AI course assistant, asking questions directly to a human tutor, and searching the platform's extensive content library.

Course Hero guides students through an enriched, personalized, and innovative study experience. Upon uploading their study materials, students receive a document back with defined and highlighted key concepts layered in. Students can also practice with similar questions and related materials matched from their documents so they can dive deeper into their studies and get ready for exams with more confidence. If they don't understand the provided explanation, they can highlight the question, and click to get help from expert tutors.

"We are honored to be recognized from AI Breakthrough for our work to bring thoughtful and responsible AI to the learning journey," said John Peacock, CEO of Course Hero. "This accolade reflects our commitment to transform studying into a seamless experience for every course.

This year's program attracted more than 5,000 nominations from over 20 different countries throughout the world.

"Course Hero uses AI to ensure students can turn those study grinds into steady wins. All too often, students get stuck, have trouble understanding, and slack on practice when it comes to homework. Additionally, many don't have the time or resources to wait on or even afford a tutor or office hours," said Steve Johansson, managing director, AI Breakthrough. "Students leave Course Hero feeling motivated, energized, connected to the content they need, supported, and successful. This innovative use of AI in a help product makes Course Hero's AI Homework Help our 'Best AI-based Solution for Education.'"
