How to use Study Them

AI Tutor

Your private study buddy that explains anything.

2. 2.Type your question, OR click the camera icon to upload a photo.
3. 3.The tutor responds with explanations, equations, and step-by-step solutions.

2. 2.Click "+ Create Set".

NotebookLM-style podcasts about anything.

Exam Plans

Your hub for one exam.

2. 2.Click "+ Create Exam Plan".
3. 3.Name it (e.g. "AP Bio Unit 3 Test").

5. 5.Generate study guides, audio overviews, and quizzes from those sources.

Quiz Battle

Race the AI on flashcards.

3. 3.The AI generates questions from your cards.
4. 4.Answer as fast as you can — see who scores higher.

Audio Overviews

NotebookLM-style podcast on any topic.

2. 2.Pick sources OR enter a topic.
3. 3.Wait ~1–2 minutes for the script + audio.

Reverse Mode

Practice from the answer side.

What it's for

You give Study Them an answer (or a topic), and it asks you what the question was. Great for memorizing definitions both ways and for the Feynman technique — if you can teach it, you know it.

How to use it

1. 1.Click "Reverse Mode" in the sidebar.
2. 2.Type a topic or term you want to practice.
3. 3.Study Them asks you questions where you have to recall the term from the definition.

2. 2."Rooms" in the sidebar to create or join a real-time study room.
