This app is great for studying for big test. Drop your PDF's in the system and it'll do the trick. You can organize it specifically for your needs.

I am currently preparing for a test that covers a substantial amount of material, and I've found that not having to physically write out my flashcards has been incredibly beneficial. This approach has freed up more time for me to focus on memorization and really engage with the content.

See it in action

New — Short videos

Turn any source into a 30-second short

Pick the Short design and Scholarly distills your material into a vertical, illustrated clip — with the narration set on screen word-for-word, so it plays perfectly with the sound off.

  • Made from your own PDFs, recordings, or notes
  • Subtitles that match the narration exactly
  • Vertical and phone-first — about 30 seconds

New — Illustrated lectures

Turn any source into a hand-drawn lesson

Pick the Illustrated design and Scholarly teaches your material as a full-length, hand-drawn explainer — one quirky character sketching every idea on a clean whiteboard, narrated from start to finish.

  • Made from your own PDFs, recordings, or notes
  • Every concept drawn as a simple visual metaphor
  • Full-length and narrated — a whole lesson, not a slideshow
