Slanter is an AI-native learning platform for IB schools and students. I lead the business side, and I'm building its library of interactive simulations and study guides.
An AI tutor for IB students that guides them to the answer instead of writing it for them.
Schools don't trust LLMs like ChatGPT or Claude because of academic integrity, so students either use AI secretly or not at all. General chatbots hand over finished answers and don't know the IB syllabus.
We are three co-founders. Viktor and Stepan, both future CS majors, wrote most of the code. I work on the business and product side and on the learning content.
Slanter needs an email and password to log in. You don't need to sign up. Just log in at slanter.ai with the details here. The account has a large amount of usage and all Pro features unlocked.
Simulations, guides and formula breakdowns for the IB, designed and coded by me.
Most of Slanter is built around asking questions and getting answers, and every answer costs us money. So I designed a library that sits next to the AI. It has interactive simulations that show how variables in science and economics actually relate, guides for Paper 1, 2 and 3 with structure, tips and vocabulary, and interactive formula booklets where you click a formula to zoom in and get a full explanation with examples.
The ideas are mine and I'm coding it alone, so Viktor and Stepan can focus on the AI. I started in September and taught myself TypeScript and the libraries the simulations are built on along the way. Once it is built it costs us almost nothing to run, however many students use it, so we can give students more support without raising our costs or cutting their usage. Every section is drafted, and the simulations below are an early preview of what is coming to Slanter.
These are the real simulations, running live and still in development. Click the tour to pause it and look around, or pick a simulation to try it yourself.
Every simulation runs its model live in the browser and is tagged with the syllabus topics it covers. Where the IB data booklet has a formula, the page shows it with the simulation's live numbers substituted in.
What I tried first, and what I took from it.
Age 14
I offered local businesses with outdated or missing websites a new one at a low price, partly for my CV and partly for pocket money. I was too young to register a company, so many German businesses turned me down, and without a real path to growth I stopped. It taught me that a good offer isn't enough if customers can't trust who is selling it.
Age 14
At the same time, we started building an interactive tycoon game in a large open world on Roblox. We realised the commitment was too big for us, and my game development skills weren't strong enough yet, so we stopped. It taught me to judge the scope of a project before diving in, which I now do for Slanter.
About me
I grew up in Schwetzingen and moved to Munich when I was about ten, right in the middle of Covid. Starting over in a new city while everything was closed was hard. Today I'm in Grade 12 of the IB at Munich International School, and my Extended Essay looks at how AI is causing unemployment among junior software developers.
For nine years football was a big part of my life, most recently at FC Ismaning. Last year I stopped. A health issue that lasted over six months cut my stamina, and I decided to put my time into school and Slanter instead. It wasn't an easy call, but I didn't stop training. I moved to the gym, and I've gone consistently for about a year now.
I see school as a place to build discipline and knowledge I can use later. But ever since I was young I wanted to do something of my own, not just to earn money but to prove to myself that I'm actually helping someone. I tried a Roblox game, then selling websites, and now Slanter. I'm not drawn to a 9 to 5. I work best with freedom, on my own or in a team, on things I care about.
My rule is simple. Build to help, never build to sell. If something makes a student's life easier, the money follows as a by-product of that value, but it is never the goal.
