How to make a study guide

Step 1

Add your material

Upload a PDF, paste a YouTube link, drop in your notes, or add a recording. No signup needed to try one guide.

Step 2

Generate the study guide

The AI study guide maker reads your source and builds sectioned notes, flashcards, and practice questions — each claim anchored to the original material.

Review and pass

Study the notes, drill the flashcards, and self-test with the quiz. Edit anything before you save or share.
