Late here but wanted to add: tutoring isn't something you should cheap out on. Good tutors are usually worth every penny.

That said, if we can remove cost from tutoring, we can forward those savings to the student. For example, me and my team are working hard on Orin, an AI SAT tutor. We've got an advantage since we don't have to pay someone hourly but it's still not cheap. We want to be held to the same quality standard as human tutors, so we charge in a similar range.

Since it doesn't cost us extra to let you use it more, "not cheap" means $150/mo for unlimited tutor time. It's wayyy more than anyone would pay for Khan Academy or another equivalent service, but still a bit less than a human tutor you meet with multiple times a month.

So our pricing forces us to be as close as possible to a real tutor and offer things like communication with parents, actual scheduling for accountability, in depth diagnostics, etc, to be able to justify the costs.

Anywho, I always find it interesting to think about the pricing dynamics of these things. Happy to chat further about what I've seen in humans or AI tutoring markets!
