Appears to support multiple <proof assistant> backends including <Lean (proof assistant)>, Hol and <Coq>.
A discussion on the <Lean (proof assistant)> Zulip: https://leanprover.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/113488-general/topic/The.20Math.20Genome.20Project/near/352639129[]. Lean people are not convinced about the model in general it seems however.
TODO <closed source>? Really? https://www.themathgenome.com/pricing

Has <conjectures> feature.

> Does the website actually automatically check the formal proofs, or is this intended to be implemented at some point? And if yes, is it intended to allow proofs to depend on other proofs of the website (possibly by other people)
Owner:
> Hi Ciro, yes we will be releasing in-browser proof assistant environments/checkers (e.g. Lean). Our goal is not to replace the underlying open-source repos (e.g. Mathlib) so the main dependency will be on the current repos; then when statement formalizations and proofs come in and are certified they can be PR'd to the respective repos. So we will be the source of truth for the informal latex code but only a stepping stone and orchestration layer on the way to the respective formal libraries.
So apparently there will be proof checking, but nodependencies between proofs, you still have to pull request everywhing back and face the pain.
