About us
About Examnauts
Examnauts is a UK 7+ exam-practice platform that gives children aged 6–7 unlimited, freshly generated practice questions and an AI tutor that hand-draws every answer step by step — built by a qualified primary-school teacher for parents preparing a child for independent and prep school entrance exams.
What Examnauts does
Four things, all aimed at one outcome: ten calm minutes of daily practice that actually sticks.
Unlimited 7+ practice questions
We generate practice questions procedurally rather than recycling a fixed set of past papers, from a bank of 46,000+ questions across 103 subtopics in maths, English and verbal reasoning. Children never sit the same paper twice, and every question is marked the instant they answer it.
AstroAI — a tutor inside every question
When a child gets stuck, AstroAI hand-writes the full method onto graph paper, one stroke at a time, the way a teacher would at the kitchen table. Maths solutions are worked out deterministically rather than generated by a chatbot, so the method shown is always correct — and hints escalate gently so the child thinks it through first.
Progress tracking and parent reports
Every answer feeds a per-topic mastery picture, so you can see exactly which skills are secure and which need work. Parents get a progress dashboard, weak-spot reports, and a shareable read-only link they can send to a tutor.
A study plan to exam day
Enter the exam date and Examnauts builds a day-by-day revision timetable that front-loads the topics your child finds hardest and drops the ones they have already mastered. It updates itself as they practise, so the plan never goes stale.
What makes Examnauts different
We specialise in the 7+, not the 11+
Most established platforms — Atom Learning among them — centre their product on the 11+ and GCSE, with the 7+ as an afterthought. Examnauts is built specifically for ages 6–7: the question difficulty, the reading level, the session length and the tone are all designed for a child sitting their first ever exam.
One year, no auto-renew
You pay once for a year and it simply stops — there is no rolling subscription to remember to cancel, and no automatic renewal. We also offer a 14-day money-back guarantee, because billing frustration is the single most common complaint parents raise about entrance-exam subscription platforms.
The working is drawn, not just revealed
Plenty of tools show a child the answer. Examnauts shows the method — column sums, fraction bars, bus-stop division and clock faces, drawn live stroke by stroke with narration. Children learn how to get there themselves rather than memorising a final number.
Built by a classroom teacher
Every question, method and explanation comes from a UK-qualified primary teacher with over 12 years in the classroom — not a content agency or a generic AI. The teaching methods match what children are actually taught at school, so home practice reinforces class rather than confusing them.
Child-safe by design
There is no open chat box for a child to type into, no advertising and no behavioural ad-tracking of children. Help works by tapping buttons, and we store the absolute minimum data — a parent's email, plus the child's first name and age.

The team behind Examnauts
Examnauts was founded by Faiza Zaidi, a primary-school teacher of over 12 years and a parent who has been through the entrance-exam journey herself.
Faiza is a UK-qualified teacher (QTS) who has taught children aged 6–12 for more than twelve years and served as a subject leader. She writes the curriculum, the question logic and every teaching method in Examnauts herself.
“Even with brilliant teachers, tutors and past papers, something was missing. There wasn't one good place for children to practise little and often, stay motivated, and actually enjoy it. Examnauts is the tool I wished I'd had — not a replacement for teachers or tutors, but the daily-practice pillar that ties everything together.”
Our origin story
Examnauts began as a set of practice sheets Faiza built for her own child and her pupils' families, after watching parents struggle to keep daily practice going at home. It grew into a full platform when it became clear the hard part wasn't finding questions — it was keeping a six-year-old motivated and showing parents what to do next.
How Examnauts works
Getting started
Sign up with an email address — there's no password to remember and no card required. You'll add your child's first name, age and a chosen avatar, and they can start practising within about a minute.
A typical session
Children work through short sets of ten questions in roughly ten minutes a day. Answers are marked instantly, wrong answers come back until they're right, and topics level up through a rank ladder that keeps children returning.
Support and communication
Support is by email at hello@examnauts.com, and messages reach the founding team directly rather than an outsourced desk. We aim to reply within one working day, and usually much sooner.
Devices
Examnauts runs in a web browser on any device — phone, tablet, laptop or desktop — with nothing to install and nothing to print. Progress syncs to your account, so a child can start on a tablet and continue on a laptop.

How is Examnauts different from Atom Learning?
Atom Learning is built primarily around the 11+ and GCSE, while Examnauts specialises in the 7+ for ages 6–7. We also charge once for a year with no auto-renew, and our tutor draws out every method rather than only revealing answers.
