FAQ
How can AI help me revise?
Upload your notes to a notebook tool to auto-generate summaries and quiz questions, then use a general assistant to explain anything you got wrong and drill practice questions.
Is it safe to rely on AI explanations for exams?
Use them to understand and practise, but cross-check key facts against your course materials — AI can be confidently wrong on details.
