Mathemagics Club

What Mathemagics Club does

Mathemagics Club is a private, founder-led education company founded by Arash Salehi (Ari Mathemagics), a CSUN professor of mathematics and competition math instructor. It serves motivated K-12 students preparing for national and international math and computer science competitions, including AMC, AIME, USAMO, MathCounts, HMMT, CHMMC, Math Kangaroo, Purple Comet, MOEMS, and USACO. Its method emphasizes meta-learning and problem-solving before subject content; the company reports that more than 1,000 students qualified for AIME and more than 45 qualified for USA(J)MO through its training.

Core delivery consists of training programs, timed AMC practice tests, and class access through a website and Canvas LMS. The company is integrating an AI-powered adaptive learning add-on planned to create personalized learning paths, real-time feedback, dynamically generated practice questions through custom GPTs and Assistant APIs, and interactive learning tools and games for AMC 8, 10, and 12. The AI work was explicitly described in June 2024 as under development, and no public API or mobile app is listed.

Training programs are described as subscription recurring, but public pricing is unavailable. Distribution is primarily self-serve through the website and Canvas, supported by blog content, organic social channels, and word-of-mouth tied to student competition outcomes. The company identifies California as its operating geography and has no disclosed funding rounds, parent company, or revenue.

Others

• Outschool: Outschool is an online marketplace connecting students with small-group classes and tutors across subjects including math enrichment. While not a direct competitor in competition prep specifically, it represents a comparable online distribution channel for enrichment education that Mathemagics Club could leverage or compete with.

Broad incumbents

• Carnegie Learning: Carnegie Learning is an established AI-powered math learning platform serving K-12 schools and districts with adaptive tutoring software. While much broader in scope than Mathemagics Club, its AI-driven personalized learning approach represents a larger-scale competitor with significantly more resources.
• IXL Learning: IXL provides online math practice and personalized learning for K-12 students with adaptive question generation. While broader and more general than Mathemagics Club, it overlaps in the adaptive math practice space and represents a larger incumbent in personalized math learning.

Direct peers

• Think Academy: Think Academy offers math enrichment and competition prep programs (including AMC 8/10/12) primarily serving K-12 students. It overlaps directly with Mathemagics Club in competition training content and target audience, though it operates more as a learning center model.
• Art of Problem Solving: Art of Problem Solving (AoPS) is the dominant direct competitor in math competition preparation, offering textbooks, online courses, and a community forum covering AMC, AIME, USAMO, and MathCounts. It targets the same motivated K-12 students and is the most natural comparable to Mathemagics Club.
• Elite Educational Institute: Elite Educational Institute offers SAT/ACT prep and academic enrichment including competition math preparation at multiple US locations. It targets motivated students seeking to excel on standardized and competitive assessments, overlapping with Mathemagics Club's audience.
• AlphaStar Academy: AlphaStar Academy provides intensive math and science olympiad training programs including AMC, AIME, and USAJMO preparation. Like Mathemagics Club, it focuses on competition outcomes and serves motivated K-12 students, making it a directly comparable niche player.
• Russian School of Mathematics: Russian School of Mathematics (RSM) provides rigorous math enrichment programs for K-12 students with a strong emphasis on problem-solving and competition preparation. It competes for the same competition-focused student demographic and employs a similar intensive small-group instructional model.

Emerging players

• Squirrel AI: Squirrel AI is a venture-backed adaptive AI tutoring company operating in China and expanding globally. Its AI-powered personalized learning platform directly competes with the AI-enhanced adaptive learning system Mathemagics Club is developing for math competition prep.
• Brilliant: Brilliant is an interactive STEM learning platform offering math, science, and computer science courses for motivated learners. It serves a similar self-directed, problem-solving-oriented audience and competes indirectly for the time and attention of mathematically curious students.
