GoMim
GoMim is a browser-based AI math solver: photograph an exercise or type it in, and it returns a step-by-step explanation rather than a bare answer. Sibling modules cover physics, chemistry and general homework questions for students of every level.
What is GoMim?
GoMim is a browser-based AI math solver. There is nothing to install and nothing to configure: the solver sits on the home page, and a first problem can be submitted without creating an account. Two input modes are available and can be combined. You can upload a photo of the exercise — handwritten or printed, dragged and dropped, pasted from the clipboard or picked through a file browser — or type the statement using a built-in mathematical formula keyboard. A phone can be used to capture the problem and the solution read afterwards in a desktop browser, since questions are synchronized across devices and kept in a history.
What comes back is not just the final answer. GoMim breaks the problem into logical steps, names the method it applies and displays the formulas involved, and a chat interface lets you ask a follow-up question about any step that remains unclear. Coverage runs from Basic Math (arithmetic, fractions, decimals, percentages) through Algebra (linear equations, polynomials, inequalities, functions), Geometry (area and perimeter, volume, analytic geometry, theorems), Calculus (limits, derivatives, integrals, differential equations) and Statistics (probability, data analysis, combinatorics, distributions). A separate calculator section groups twelve families of tools, from Elementary and Pre-Algebra up to Calculus III and Statistics.
The same account opens several sibling modules: AI Homework Helper, Physics AI (mechanics, circuits, motion, AP Physics), Chemistry AI (eight AP Chemistry areas), Question AI (math, chemistry, science, physics, literature, history) and Answer AI, aimed at K-12 and AP subjects. The interface is declared in seven languages: English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, Indonesian and Korean.
The business model is freemium by the publisher's own description, with ten free credits a day on the Free tier and a typical question costing about two credits, paid tiers lifting the daily cap. The publisher is GoMim, which gives a Hong Kong address in its privacy policy. Its accuracy claims are best read as marketing rather than measurement: the pages variously advertise 20% higher accuracy than GPT-4, 99% accuracy and a 99.9% accuracy rate, while the home page carries a self-declared 4.9/5 rating from 83,479 reviews with no verifiable source.

When to use GoMim / When not to
A quick filter to help you decide if GoMim is the right fit.
When to use GoMim
- Students of all levels, from middle-school arithmetic to university STEM coursework
- Parents supporting a child's homework without re-learning the syllabus themselves
- Teachers and tutors generating practice problems, checking solutions and preparing extra material
- AP candidates revising Physics, Chemistry and other exam subjects
- Non-English-speaking learners, thanks to an interface declared in seven languages
When not to use GoMim
- Businesses and professionals: the terms grant a license for personal, non-commercial purposes only
- Developers wanting to embed a solver in their own product: no API and no documentation exist
- Schools and companies needing enterprise controls, since there is no SSO, no DPA and no team or institutional plan
- Researchers and advanced practitioners: the site itself advises verifying complex or research-level mathematics
- Learners under 13, who are barred by the terms; under-18s need the consent and supervision of a parent or legal guardian
How to use GoMim
A typical end-to-end flow, from setup to results.
- Open gomim.com: the solver is on the home page and no registration is required to start
- Pick an input mode — drag and drop an image, click to upload, paste a screenshot, or type the problem
- Keep to one question per image, as the site recommends, to get the best recognition
- Use the formula keyboard for mathematical expressions that are awkward to type
- Combine image and text when a photographed statement needs a written clarification
- From a phone, capture the exercise with the camera and pick the solution up later in a desktop browser
- Click Solve and let the AI identify the type of problem and the method to apply
- Read the step-by-step solution and the formulas displayed at each stage
- Ask a follow-up question in the chat if a step is unclear
- Start a fresh problem with New Chat, find earlier ones under History, and create an account (email plus verification code, or password) to keep that history and to subscribe
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Usable immediately from the home page, with no sign-up needed for a first problem
- A permanent free tier of ten credits a day, rather than a time-limited trial
- Step-by-step explanations that name the method and the formulas, not just the final result
- Photo and text input, which can be combined, with a formula keyboard for typed expressions
- Follow-up questions in a chat, which brings the experience closer to tutoring than to a calculator
- Broad coverage, from elementary arithmetic to calculus and statistics, plus physics, chemistry and AP-oriented subjects
- Low displayed entry price (USD 4.99 per month), an ad-free interface even on the free tier, seven interface languages, and payment handled by Stripe
Cons
- Publisher identity is thin: no about page, no legal notice, no named legal entity and no company registration number — only a Hong Kong address inside the privacy policy, at an office-tower address of the kind used for corporate domiciliation
- Accuracy claims contradict each other from page to page (20% better than GPT-4, 99%, 99.9%), and the 4.9/5 rating from 83,479 reviews declared in the home page's structured data has no verifiable source, while testimonials are not attributable to identifiable people
- Concrete GDPR gaps: no Article 27 EU representative although EEA users are explicitly addressed, no named DPO, no DPA, no published sub-processor list and no documented way to opt out of model training
- Prices are displayed on annual terms by default: the advertised USD 4.99 and 7.49 are the monthly equivalent of a yearly commitment, the month-to-month price is not rendered, and the page's structured data quotes yet other amounts (USD 9.99 and 83.88)
- Refunds are refused as a matter of principle, with only two exceptions — a duplicate charge or a proven technical failure — and only within seven days
- A single email address, contact@gomim.com, serves legal, privacy and support requests, and there is no official social account (the footer's social buttons are share links)
- No API and no native iOS or Android app: the product is web-only and cannot be integrated anywhere else
Pricing & Plans
GoMim operates on a freemium basis. A permanent free tier is available at no cost and provides ten credits per day. The lowest paid entry point is the PRO tier, displayed at USD 4.99 per month, with the Unlimited tier displayed at USD 7.49 per month. Both figures correspond to an annual commitment: the pricing page opens with the Yearly (Save 50%) toggle selected by default, and the month-to-month price is not rendered on the page. Payment is handled by Stripe and local taxes may apply. For completeness, the same page's structured data, apparently outdated, quotes different amounts (USD 9.99 monthly and USD 83.88 yearly).

Data, GDPR & hosting
A consolidated view of how GoMim handles your data.
GDPR overview
The privacy policy, last updated on 1 July 2025, applies the substance of the GDPR without ever claiming compliance. A dedicated section, Legal Bases for Processing (for EEA/UK users), lists performance of the contract, consent, legitimate interests and legal obligations, and the usual rights are enumerated: access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection. Requests go by email to contact@gomim.com with the subject Privacy Request, answered within applicable legal timeframes (e.g., 30 days). International transfers invoke Standard Contractual Clauses, where applicable, and a separate CCPA/CPRA section covers California. The gaps are just as concrete: no Article 27 EU representative is designated, no DPO is named — the policy merely invites you to email for DPO contact details — the phrase GDPR compliant appears nowhere, and no certification such as SOC 2 or ISO 27001 is mentioned.
Who owns the data?
Under the terms of service you keep ownership of what you submit: text, math problems, uploaded photos and questions. Submitting content grants GoMim a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license to use, display and process it solely for the purpose of operating and improving the Service. Everything else — design, algorithms, databases, trademarks — belongs to GoMim or its licensors. GoMim is the declared data controller, reachable at contact@gomim.com from its Hong Kong address. Content may be shared with service providers (hosting, analytics, email, support, payment, third-party AI model vendors), with an acquirer in a merger or sale, on legal request, or with your consent. The policy states that personal information is not sold for money.
Reuse rights
You keep ownership of your inputs and of the images you upload, and nothing in the terms forbids you from reusing the solutions GoMim produces — though nothing explicitly grants you rights over them either. The license you receive covers personal, non-commercial purposes only, so reselling answers or building a commercial service on top of the output falls outside what is permitted. Automated access through bots or scrapers without authorization, and reverse-engineering, are prohibited. One reservation dominates the rest: the terms state that AI answers are provided for informational and educational purposes only, with no guarantee of accuracy, completeness or reliability, and ask users to verify anything important independently — a caution that sits awkwardly beside the publisher's marketing claims of 99% accuracy and better.
Data retention & training
Hosting summary
No hosting country and no hosting region is named anywhere in the privacy policy. It refers only to trusted third parties for hosting, data storage, without identifying them, and cites Stripe for payment and Google Analytics for measurement as examples. The single geographic statement is a conditional transfer clause — data may be transferred to, stored, and processed in countries other than your home country (including the U.S.) — which describes a possibility, not a hosting location, and should not be read as one. For transfers from the EEA or the UK, the policy promises appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses, where applicable. The declared data controller is established in Hong Kong, at the address given in that policy. As a technical observation rather than a statement by the publisher, the domain resolves to an anycast Cloudflare node, which is a CDN edge and says nothing about where the origin servers sit. No DPA and no sub-processor list are published. The announced security measures are encryption in transit, access controls and monitoring, with notification in the event of a breach.
Things to keep in mind
Risks and trade-offs to weigh before adopting GoMim.
- Dependence and lost effort: a solver that hands over the answer can quietly replace the work of learning, all the more so for users who may be as young as 13
- Academic integrity: the tool makes it easy to hand in homework you have not understood, when the terms themselves position it as an aid and not a substitute for formal instruction or certified tutoring
- Accuracy taken on trust: the terms disclaim any guarantee of accuracy or completeness and ask you to verify important results independently, while the marketing pages advertise 99% and above
- Uploaded photos carry more than the exercise: the privacy policy acknowledges that images may contain personally identifying information
- Model training with no way out: aggregated or de-identified inputs and outputs may be used to train, test and evaluate models, no opt-out mechanism is documented, and processing involves unnamed third-party AI providers
- Data leaves your region and collection is broad: transfers from the EEA or the UK to other countries including the United States are provided for, alongside automatic collection of IP address, device type, operating system, browser and approximate location
- Commercial friction: subscriptions renew automatically, refunds are refused as a matter of principle, and the privacy policy mentions advertising partners and advertising identifiers while every tier advertises No Ads
Setup & Integrations
Technical difficulty
Minimal. GoMim is a web tool with nothing to install, nothing to configure and no API key to obtain: the solver is open on the home page and a first problem can be submitted without registering. An optional account is created with an email address and a verification code, or with a password, and subscribing takes a few clicks through Stripe. The only practical skill required is framing a readable photo, with one question per image as the site recommends. Anyone able to use a browser can be productive within a minute.

Should you pick GoMim?
GoMim does the essential thing well: it takes a photograph or a typed statement and returns a reasoned, step-by-step solution rather than a bare number, and it lets you interrogate any step in a chat. In a crowded market — Photomath, Mathway, Symbolab, WolframAlpha, Gauth AI — that teaching-oriented framing, combined with a genuine permanent free tier of ten credits a day and a low entry price, is a real argument for students, parents, teachers and tutors working on their own material.
The counterpart is transparency. There is no about page and no legal notice, no legal entity is named anywhere, and the only address is the Hong Kong one given in the privacy policy, in an office tower of the kind used for corporate domiciliation. A single email address handles legal, privacy and support matters, and there is no official social account. The accuracy figures are the publisher's own and contradict each other from one page to the next, and the 4.9/5 rating from 83,479 reviews declared in the home page's structured data has no verifiable source.
On the legal side, the privacy policy applies the substance of the GDPR — legal bases for EEA and UK users, the full list of rights, Standard Contractual Clauses — but designates no Article 27 representative and names no DPO, publishes neither a DPA nor a sub-processor list, and documents no way to opt out of model training. The terms restrict use to personal, non-commercial purposes, refunds are refused by default, and, oddly for a product aimed at a school audience, no student or teacher pricing exists.
In one line: an inexpensive, competent study aid for individual learners, whose answers still deserve to be checked — and not a tool to buy for an institution or a business.
