Our verdict on iMathEQ
iMathEQ lets organizations add mathematical and scientific equation editing to websites and apps. Users create and share formulas in a browser popup, while the integration can be added through JavaScript. It is aimed at organizations building equation entry into their own web experiences, rather than people seeking a standalone desktop editor. Web, Android, iOS and API are listed platforms, and deployment options include cloud and self-hosted.
Its main distinction is the editor API and output options. The API can retrieve and set MathML, and equations can also be exported as PNG images. The feature set includes math and science symbols and layouts, making the product relevant where a host site needs editable formula content as well as a rendered image. The described integrations are websites and apps; no broader named software ecosystem is specified. Organizations choosing iMathEQ should be prepared to connect the editor to their own product rather than expect a general-purpose equation workflow.
Pricing is organized by annual user-count tiers: US$120 per year for fewer than 200 users, US$240 for fewer than 500, and US$380 for fewer than 1,000. A tier for fewer than 5,000 users is listed without a price. The server license is US$18,888 as a one-time price and is described as covering unlimited user access; it is intended for one installation and one domain. Free access is conditional on an organization creating no more than 1,000 equations per year or having fewer than 10 users. iMathEQ fits organizations that need embedded equation entry and can justify a license; those seeking a standalone editor or a simpler licensing arrangement may prefer an alternative.
