Could you build this?

Partial While wrapping an LLM with Socratic system prompts and voice synthesis is straightforward, coordinating real-time low-latency bidirectional voice with synchronized programmatic whiteboard drawing requires advanced frontend-backend streaming synchronization.

What it would actually take: A production version requires WebSockets or WebRTC for low-latency streaming audio (using OpenAI Realtime API or custom STT/TTS pipelines) paired with a server-orchestrated vector canvas protocol (like tldraw). The complex part is accurately syncing audio cues with step-by-step math vector rendering on the canvas in real time while enforcing pedagogical guardrails against revealing answers. This requires skilled full-stack audio/canvas engineers with experience in educational UX.
