Graduate from Tutoring – Retire from Nagging.
Stop being the 'Homework Police.'
Use Blast to give your child the brain-building habits to learn independently and master difficult subjects—without expensive human tutors.
Watch: The End of the Homework Battle.
with Founder Bruce Lewolt
The "Tutoring" Trap
Research shows that when families engage a tutor, they end up spending $3,000-$9,600 per year. For 2-3 years. Or longer.
Grades go up during tutoring. But when tutoring stops, grades flatline again. Not because tutors are bad. But because tutoring can’t fix the two root problems:
First, your child still uses traditional study methods that guarantee forgetting.
Second, your child still struggles with procrastination and focus—never learning the emotional regulation skills needed for independent work.
That’s the trap.
Blast fixes both root problems. We teach Deep Learning Methods AND build the focus and emotional regulation habits that make independent learning possible. The root problems get solved. The cycle ends.
Tutors Don't Guarantee Better Grades - We Do!
Blast Guarantees that your child’s grades will improve by at least one full letter grade in 30 days or your money back – no questions asked. No tutor makes that promise.
The “Blast Learning Companion” in Action.
Watch how the Mind Coach, Learning Engineer, and Knowledge Architect work in perfect sync to stabilize focus, repair knowledge gaps, and build the independent study habits that last a lifetime.
Meet Your Child's Learning Companion
Most AI apps do the work for students—creating dependency and weaker minds. Blast is different. Your child gets a personal learning companion who knows how to encourage them, adapts to how they learn, and guides them through a complete system that builds focus, teaches powerful learning methods, and handles the daily grind of studying. The result: a confident, capable learner—not just for this test, but for life.
Part 1: The Mind Coach
The calm voice that helps them begin—and keeps them going.
Before your child can learn anything, they need to show up mentally. Their companion trains the focus, emotional regulation, and task initiation skills that 90% of students were never taught. When test anxiety hits or homework feels overwhelming, their companion is there—helping them breathe, reset, and perform at their best.
Key Features: Emotional Regulation Training, Focus Stamina & Impulse Control
Part 2: Knowledge Architect Training
Finally, someone teaches them HOW to learn.
Their companion replaces outdated “brute force” methods like Cornell notes, flash cards, and practice tests with neuroscience-based techniques for listening, note-taking, reading, and studying. These strategies work together to build mastery and critical thinking skills rather than rote memorization. Result: faster learning, better test scores, far less forgetting.
The Math Engine: Includes the Blast Genius Maker—a personalized math library for 6th–12th grade, guided by their companion every step of the way.
- Precision Repair: Our Intent AI maps knowledge gaps with 99% precision, identifying the specific “cracked blocks” from previous years that cause today’s struggles. Their companion walks them through exactly what they need—no guessing, no wasted time.
- Total Prep: Whether catching up, getting ahead, or prepping for the SAT/ACT, their companion builds a personalized path and celebrates every milestone.
Bottom Line: Tutors guess. Your child’s companion knows exactly what they need—and how to help them get there.
Part 3: The Learning Engineer
A tireless assistant who never forgets a thing.
The Automation: The Learning Engineer handles the repetitive grunt work so your child doesn’t have to. It records lectures and fuses them with class and reading notes to generate personalized study guides—adapted to how your child learns best. Their companion delivers it all with encouragement and clarity.
The Retention: Leveraging patented technology and over 500 studies, the system presents material using proprietary methods far superior to flash cards or standard spaced learning. The Engineer remembers everything your child has mastered and schedules strategic reviews to keep knowledge fresh—eliminating the need to cram for high-stakes exams like the SAT, ACT, or medical boards.
Bottom Line: No tutor, no app, no system works this hard for your child—day in, day out. And none of them know how to support your child the way their companion does.
The "Peace of Mind" Dashboard.
Absolute transparency without the hover. Monitor effort, focus metrics, and mastery in real-time—from your own device.
- Live Focus Feeds: See exactly how many minutes of deep work (not just screen time) were completed. This differentiates Blast from apps that just measure "login time."
- Gap Maps: Visualize which concepts your child has mastered and where they need encouragement.
- Weekly Wins: Automated summaries of progress sent to the parent's inbox, providing specific positive data points to celebrate (e.g., "Sarah mastered 4 new Algebra concepts today").
Architects of the Engine
The Blast Learning companion is not just code. It is the synthesis of three lifetimes of research into how the human brain learns, endures, and excels.
Bruce Lewolt
Founder & Lead System Architect
A pioneer in automated learning systems, Bruce Lewolt spent three decades answering a single question: ‘How can we use technology to help every student reach their full learning potential?” Lewolt built advanced learning systems for IBM and McGraw-Hill and holds multiple learning technology patents. He is the author of Getting A’s and the architect of the AI systems that power the Blast Learning engine.
Dr. Jon Finn
Expert in Resilience & Habit Mechanics
Intelligence is useless without the focus to apply it. Dr. Finn’s award-winning research provided the blueprint for the Blast ‘Mind Coach.’ His work focuses on training the brain to overcome procrastination, manage stress, and build elite-level focus and stamina. Dr. Finn’s research ensures that Blast doesn’t just deliver content; it trains the student’s brain to do the focused work required for growth.
Jerome Kagan Ph.D
Harvard University
Dr. Kagan’s research at Harvard revolutionized our understanding of human temperament. Dr. Kagan provided critical advice on the underlying design for training the Blast system to adapt to each student’s personality. His insights allow the Engine to adjust the pacing and scaffolding to match the student’s emotional needs. This ensures that an anxious student is encouraged rather than overwhelmed, while a bold student is sufficiently challenged.
The Science of Durability
The "Fluency" Illusion
Easy apps create a false sense of knowing. When an app gives the answer, it creates “Fluency”—the temporary feeling of competence.
Engineered "Desirable Difficulty"
Friction is necessary for encoding. “We don’t remove the struggle; we optimize it.”
