Solvy will also partner with most advanced educational programs to seamlessly integrate with other education services.

Under the guidance of Alexei Beltyukov, a seasoned entrepreneur, Solvy will provide a key tool necessary for the interactive math sector. Solvy is set to make its first public release in March 2015.
