Study.com proctors its final exams through ProctorU — webcam, photo ID, and a per-exam fee. Sophia Learning is a flat $99/month for unlimited courses, with open-book, unproctored Milestones — and SolveHog's Auto-Solve reads your Sophia Milestone and Challenge questions right on the page in one click.
Study.com locks down its finals behind ProctorU (webcam, photo ID, ~$70 per exam). Sophia is flat-rate and open-book — so you can move fast — and SolveHog's Auto-Solve surfaces the answer to any Sophia Milestone or Challenge question right on the page, instantly.
SolveHog's Auto-Solve reads your Sophia Milestone or Challenge question and surfaces the answer right on the page — no clicking through questions one by one, no searching around.
Sophia's Milestones and Finals are open-book and unproctored — no ProctorU webcam, no photo ID, no locked-down exam like Study.com's finals — so an on-page assistant like SolveHog is genuinely useful.
Sophia is one flat $99/month for unlimited courses. Study.com's proctored finals add a separate per-exam charge (around $70 each) on top of the subscription — Sophia has none.
One click and SolveHog's Auto-Solve reads your Sophia Challenges and Milestones and surfaces the answers — instantly, right on the page, no webcam watching over you.

SolveHog runs entirely inside your browser, never logs into your Sophia account, and stores no personal information.

Everything you need to know about choosing Sophia over Study.com
Yes. Both Sophia and Study.com offer ACE credit-recommended courses that transfer to many colleges, but Sophia's Milestones and Finals are open-book and unproctored, while Study.com proctors its final exams through ProctorU (webcam, photo ID, and a per-exam fee of around $70). Sophia is a flat $99/month for unlimited courses, and because its assessments are open-book, SolveHog's Auto-Solve can read your question on the page and surface the answer in one click, with optional step-by-step explanations.
Both are recognized credit providers (Study.com also carries an NCCRS recommendation), but the exam models differ sharply. Study.com requires ProctorU proctoring on its final exams — webcam, photo ID, and around $70 per exam — on top of its roughly $95/month subscription. Sophia is a flat $99/month for unlimited courses, and its Challenges and Milestones are open-book, unproctored multiple-choice assessments. That open-book format is exactly why SolveHog works: it reads your Sophia question on the page and answers it instantly, something a webcam-proctored Study.com final won't allow.
For most students, yes. Sophia is a flat $99/month for unlimited courses with no exam fees. Study.com runs about $95/month but adds a separate ProctorU charge (around $70) for each proctored final you sit, so your total climbs with every course. SolveHog is an optional add-on from $8.33/month that helps you move through Sophia's Milestones faster — always transparent, cancel anytime.
Yes. SolveHog is purpose-built for Sophia Learning and its Auto-Solve covers Challenges and Milestones — Sophia's open-book, unproctored multiple-choice assessments — across subjects like math, science, English, history, and business. It does not do Touchstones, since those are written, human-graded, and plagiarism-checked; we're honest about that limit. And because Sophia isn't proctored, there's no webcam or lockdown to work around like there is on a Study.com final.
Yes. SolveHog runs entirely inside your browser, never logs into your Sophia account, and stores no personal information — so you can run Auto-Solve on your Milestones with peace of mind.
