IA package
The IA package: everything to plan, draft and check your Maths IA
Every annotated exemplar in full, plus AI feedback credits for your own drafts — for AA and AI, SL and HL. One payment, no subscription. It helps you write your own exploration; it does not write it for you, and no one can promise you a mark.
€39 one-off · 12 months' access
You get: 13 full annotated exemplars (6 at a top-band standard) and four mid-band drafts, plus 5 AI feedback credits for your own drafts.
No subscription. 14-day money-back guarantee if you're not satisfied. The guides, ideas, checklist and planner stay free — what's free vs paid.
Secure checkout by Stripe. You'll sign in (or create a free account) first, so the package is added to your account.
Already on Pro or Platinum? The full exemplars are in your plan: open them here. Bought the package with a different email? Sign in with that email, or email Pete and he'll move it to this account.
What the €39 adds
- 13 full annotated exemplars + four mid-band drafts — Complete original explorations (AA SL, AA HL, AI SL, AI HL: calculus, differential equations, trigonometric models, complex numbers, statistics, Voronoi, graph theory) with a marking comment on every section and a justified mark, in a protected viewer — including six written to a top-band (full-marks) standard, with notes on what would lose marks. Free pages show excerpts only. Written by IB Math Revision for teaching, not real students' IAs and not moderated by the IB — never to be copied or paraphrased.
- 5 AI feedback credits — Upload a draft and get criterion-by-criterion (A–E) feedback that quotes your own text as evidence and points to what to fix — feedback only, it never writes or rewrites your IA. Worth €25 at the €5 single-review price; valid 12 months.

Free vs paid
You do not need to buy anything to write a good IA. These stay free with any account (and come with the package too):
- IA planner with saved projects — Keep your plan, notes and deadlines in your account and pick up on any device. Free with any account.
- Draft history — Every AI review is saved as a version, so you can see how each criterion moved between drafts. Free with any account that runs a review.
- The examiner checklist (PDF) and self-assessment grid — The A–E checklist Pete Bromfield, a former Head of Maths with IB examining experience, uses with his own students. Free to everyone by email.

After you buy: where it is and how to use a credit
- It goes on the account you're signed in with when you pay. A confirmation email gives the end date, and the package shows on your account page, your student home and the IA pages.
- Exemplars: every exemplar page opens the full exploration in the protected viewer.
- AI feedback: open AI feedback on your draft, choose your course, upload your draft (PDF, Word or text) or paste it, tick the own-work box and press Get feedback on my draft. Each review uses one of your 5 credits, only when it completes, and is saved in your draft history. You can run up to 3 reviews in 24 hours.
Modelling your data?
Paste your Desmos data, get the step-by-step method, send the model back. Model my data and the IA modelling guides come free with any account — and they sit alongside the package's AI feedback on your write-up.
Optional: Pete reads your draft
Optional and booked separately: Pete reads your draft, writes criterion-by-criterion feedback and talks it through with you in a 20-minute video call — feedback in general terms, like a teacher's draft comments, never edits. About the IA Review with Pete (€100, booked separately).
What it is not
- Not a ghost-writing service: nothing in the package writes or rewrites your IA.
- No grade or mark guarantee — your IA is marked by your teacher and moderated by the IB.
- Not IB material and not student work: every exemplar is original and labelled.
- Not a subscription: one payment, 12 months' access.
Who it's for
- Students in the first or second year of the DP who want to see what each criterion looks like in a complete exploration.
- Students with a draft who want structured, repeatable feedback before their teacher's single draft review.
- Parents who want their child to get support that respects academic integrity.
Frequently asked questions
Will the IA package get me a 7?
No one can honestly promise that. Your IA is marked by your teacher and moderated by the IB. The package shows you what each criterion looks like and gives you feedback on your own drafts; how well you use it is up to you.
Can I copy parts of the exemplars?
No. Copying any part of an exemplar is academic misconduct, and schools check coursework with similarity software such as Turnitin. Exemplars open in a protected viewer and are labelled on every page.
I'm on Pro. Do I need the package?
No. IB Pro includes the full exemplars and 4 AI IA feedback reviews a year. The package is for students who want IA support without a subscription.
What if I'm not satisfied?
Email us within 14 days of buying and we'll refund you in full.
Does the AI feedback work for AA and AI, SL and HL?
Yes. The criteria are the same for all four courses except Criterion E, where the feedback takes your course and level into account.
