214 / 345 skills mastered across 12 subjects · illustrative

Homeschooling gives you the freedom to teach anything. It doesn't tell you what your kid actually knows.

Grade level is a guess

"5th grade math" tells you what a school district expects — not whether your kid can actually do it. SkillsMap tests the skill, not the label.

Taught once isn't mastered

A lesson covered is not a skill learned. Every skill gets a real mastery check before it counts — unassessed, practiced, or mastered, never assumed.

You curate, not a district

Other apps enforce someone else's curriculum. SkillsMap starts from a curated library and lets you add, remove, and reorder until it's actually yours.

How it works

01 · Placement

Adaptive placement

A short adaptive check finds exactly where a kid stands in a subject — no guessing, no re-teaching what they already know.

02 · Lessons

Themed lessons

AI generates a lesson for the exact next skill, in whatever world grabs your kid — dinosaurs, Minecraft, whatever they pick. Or teach it yourself. Source-agnostic.

03 · Mastery checks

Real checks, real skill

A themed check tests the actual skill — never theme trivia, never adjacent skills. Pass it, and the skill goes green.

04 · Progress

Drillable progress

Drill into any kid, any subject: what's mastered, what's practiced, what's a real gap — coverage %, not vibes.

What's covered

36 subjects, 5,418 skills deep — down to atomic, testable checkpoints like long division or changing a tire. Drop what you don't care about; add what you do. This is the starting library, not the ceiling.

You don't have to be the expert.

You don't have to know long division cold, or remember how photosynthesis works, to give your kid a rigorous education. Pick a direction, press go, be present while the checkmarks pile up.

SkillsMap is the spine and the scorekeeper. The teaching can come from anywhere — an AI lesson, a workbook, or you at the kitchen table. Mastery is source-agnostic; it's earned the same way no matter who taught it.

Built for real families

Parents log in to manage and monitor. Kids log in to learn and explore — their own account, their own mode, browsing the map image-first and picking what looks fun.

A theme is a skin, never the substance — a Minecraft fractions lesson still teaches fractions correctly, and a themed mastery check still tests the real thing.

Frequently asked questions

What does it cost? +

SkillsMap is free to get started — create a family account and get your first placement results before you decide on anything else.

Do I have to use the AI lessons? +

No. Mastery checks work no matter how a skill got taught — an AI lesson, a workbook, or you at the kitchen table. Teach anywhere; SkillsMap assesses here.

Is this a curriculum? +

It starts as a curated library across 36 subjects, but it's yours to edit — remove what you don't care about, add what you do (practical life, faith, business, trades). Not a school district's list.

What if my kids are at different levels? +

There's no grade lock-step. A kid can be deep into Trades while still building up Reading — you see exactly where they stand in each, not one blended grade guess.

Point them at it. We'll track the mastery.
