Wolfram|Alpha

What is Wolfram|Alpha?

Wolfram|Alpha is a computational knowledge engine that turns natural-language or mathematical input into computed answers. It combines curated data with Wolfram Language methods across mathematics, science, engineering, finance, geography, units, dates, weather, and many other factual or quantitative domains.

What Wolfram|Alpha can compute

• Symbolic and numerical mathematics, including algebra, calculus, statistics, and linear algebra
• Scientific calculations across physics, chemistry, astronomy, and engineering
• Unit conversions, dates, time zones, geography, finance, nutrition, and reference data
• Tables, plots, graphics, and structured results generated from an entered query

Wolfram|Alpha Pro capabilities

Step-by-step solutions

Pro expands answers into guided steps for more than 200 topics in mathematics, chemistry, and physics. Supported results can include intermediate steps, alternative methods, and hints.

File, data, and image input

Pro can analyze uploaded data, images, and files in more than 60 formats. It also adds longer computation time, downloadable results, customized graphics, and guided calculator web apps.

Mobile photo input

Pro features extend to the official apps, where photo input can capture a problem and return results or available step-by-step explanations.

Wolfram|Alpha access levels

A free Basic account provides standard computations with customizable settings. Pro adds step-by-step solutions, practice problems, file analysis, and extended computation time. Pro Premium raises upload and computation limits and includes priority expert support.
