Online math courses from 6th Grade through Math 3, and College Algebra: lessons that teach, video lessons, and practice that checks every answer.
Transcript and description
Scene by scene: what the video shows, then what the narrator says.
0:01
On screen: The COGENT logo over a dimmed collage of site screens. Title: "COGENT. Math class, reimagined."
Narration: Meet COGENT. Math class, reimagined.

On screen: A laptop shows a lesson page with its video, "Laws of Exponents: Products and Quotients", ready to play. Beside it: "Lessons that teach", with three labels: "1,000+ animated video lessons", "Lesson podcasts" and "Read it to me".
Narration: Lessons that teach: over 1,000 animated videos, podcasts, and every reading spoken aloud.

On screen: "Practice that checks every answer." A laptop shows a question asking for 2 to the 4th power. The answer 16 is typed, submitted and marked Correct. Label: "And shows the way when they get stuck."
Narration: Practice that checks every answer, and shows the way when a student gets stuck.

On screen: "Built for every student." A laptop shows a younger pupil's home page ("Hi Maya! Ready for today?") with a homework card and an illustrated character, then an older student's home page, and the same page on a phone. Captions: "Their age. Their courses. Their study time."
Narration: Every student gets a home page built for them: their age, their courses, even the time of day they like to study.

On screen: "For college students: College Algebra. From equations to matrices." A laptop plays the lesson video "8.1a Exponential Functions and Their Graphs", showing the graph of f(x) = 2 to the x. Then a question asks to solve an equation in which a 2-by-2 determinant equals 10, answered x = 4. Label: "A video for every topic".
Narration: And for college students, a full College Algebra course, from equations to matrices.

On screen: "The whole class, one live game." A laptop shows the Arena host screen with the question "Simplify 2 cubed times 2 to the 4th" and four colored answers. A phone shows the four colored answer buttons.
Narration: Arena turns your whole class into a live math game, on any phone.
0:32
On screen: "Mech Vector. Practice that plays like a game. Every shot is an equation." A laptop shows the Mech Vector board: a grid above a number line from 0 to 10, with targets and a shot crossing the board. Labels: "The board grows with each student" and "Included with every course".
Narration: In Mech Vector, every shot is an equation, and the board grows with each student.
0:37
On screen: "Board your mech. Fly out on adventures. Race a friend's ghost." Game footage: a pilot boards a mech in the garage, then a mech races through a gate in a canyon. Label: "Friends only, with teacher and parent controls".
Narration: Students board their mechs, fly out on adventures, and race a friend's ghost.

On screen: "Fair tests. No camera. No lockdown browser." A notice from a test page says the fair-play check is on: it notes leaving the page, pasting into an answer box and how long each answer takes, and never uses the camera, microphone or screen.
Narration: Fair tests, with no camera and no lockdown browser.
0:45
On screen: "For teachers. Less grading. More teaching. Homework, quizzes and tests that grade themselves." A laptop shows the teacher's Schedule, a calendar of due dates. Label: "A whole term, planned in minutes".
Narration: Less grading, more teaching. Homework, quizzes and tests grade themselves, and a whole term plans in minutes.
