The YDABlocks pilot

Last updated July 2026

We're looking for people to use YDABlocks free for six months and tell us the truth about it — what works, what doesn't, and what they'd throw away. Homeschool families, a parent topping up what school already does, a single learner, a class. The form is right there — you don't have to read the rest first.

Apply

A couple of minutes. We read every one ourselves, and if you're a fit you'll get an email with a link to sign in. Whichever pilot you pick, the offer is the same — it only changes what we ask you.

Which pilot are you applying for?

All three get everything we make, free, for six months. This only changes what we ask you.

Your nameEmail

This is the only place we'll contact you.

Who's it for?

So we can set it up in roughly the right place.

What are you using now?

What isn't working about it?

This is the one that actually helps us. Bluntness is welcome.

How did you hear about this?

Before you send

We don't ask for the name or details of whoever's using it here, and we won't. Questions? Ask us or email support@ydablocks.com.

More on how we handle children's data is on our Children's & Student Privacy page.

The deal

What you get

A full account with everything unlocked — Math, ELA, Science, Social Studies, Arts, Computer Science, Economics, Foreign Language and Test Prep, Richard. No trial limits and no card.

How long

Six months from the day your account is confirmed. Access ends six months after that, and we remind you a week before.

What we ask

A short starting assessment before you begin, a halfway one, and a final one. Plus your honest opinion when we ask for it.

Emails

Four in total: your login, a halfway check-in, a week's notice before it ends, and one at the end. Nothing else.

Your data

Held against an account number, not your name — that is why we issue the number rather than asking you to make an account. Never shared, never sold, and it never trains a model. Because it isn't linked to you, it stays as research data for ten years and we can't pick yours out to delete. Your contact details are separate, and those we do delete on request.

Afterwards

You can carry on at 50% off — current products and anything we add later — for as long as you stay subscribed. Or not; nothing is billed either way.

Offered plainly, before you sign up — not after.

The questions everyone asks

What's the catch?

Do I have to put in a card?

What happens to my data — and my children's?

What do you actually want from me?

What happens when the six months are up?

Why should I trust something this new?

What we'll send you

Four emails in six months, and nothing else. Your login. A check-in halfway through asking what's not working. A week's notice before your access ends, so the date never catches you out. One at the end. No newsletter, no drip, no upsells in between.

Already in the pilot?

The link to tell us how it went is in your halfway email and your final one — it carries your account number, so you never have to know it. If you can't find either, ask usand we'll send it again.
