MobyMax vs Monster Math

MobyMax helps teachers identify and address learning gaps for students from kindergarten through eighth grade. It offers 115 curriculum modules and assigns lessons based on diagnostic results and student progress. Assessments include Skill Checker, Placement Tests and Benchmarker tests based on state standards. Teachers can monitor progress in real time and review standards data by student, class, school or district. Interactive Class tools support live lessons using the curriculum. Automatic rostering is available through Clever and ClassLink; users can also sign in with Google Classroom credentials or import a CSV. Clever use has licensing eligibility requirements, and continued syncing requires at least 11 active students per school. MobyMax is available on Android, iOS, macOS, web and Windows; its remote-learning document says it works on a device with a browser and internet connection. The free educator version provides limited access compared with licensed features. The Family plan costs $7.99 per month for K–8 subjects. The maker says it complies with COPPA and FERPA, does not collect students’ personal home addresses, Social Security numbers or dates of birth, and uses encryption to protect personal information.

Monster Math is a math-learning app for elementary learners, focused on K–3 math fact fluency from number sense through multiplication.

The design uses calm visual practice without timers or loud sounds, and parent reporting is included. The recommended daily practice is about 10–15 minutes. It runs on Android, iOS, and the web.

The free plan costs nothing and allows 10 levels per day. Premium costs $59.99 a year, billed yearly, equivalent to $4.99 a month; it includes all features, levels, and content, progress tracking, and ad-free offline play. A seven-day trial offers full access and requires a credit card to start; there is no charge if canceled before the trial ends. The app is listed as ESSA Tier IV Certified.
