AI Study Pack — a study guide, practice set, and flashcards generated from one upload and saved in a single study folder

Why students love it

A full study set from one upload

Instead of making a study guide, a worksheet, and flashcards one tool at a time, Scholarly reads your source and builds all three together.

Three formats, one run

Pick the formats you want and Scholarly generates a study guide, a practice set, and flashcards from the same source in a single pass — no jumping between tools.

Grounded in your source

Every item is built from the exact PDF, doc, slides, notes, or topic you give it. The pack matches your class and your syllabus, not a generic version of the subject.

Understanding, not rote

The pack is made to test how concepts and relationships fit together — so you actually grasp the material, not just memorize sample numbers or arbitrary values.

How it works

How it works

Three steps from one source to a ready-to-study folder.

  1. 01

    1. Add a source or topic

    Upload a PDF, Word doc, PowerPoint, or text file — combine several if you like — or just type a topic prompt like "Study pack for chapter 6 with exam-style practice and key terms". For PDFs, you can pick the exact page range to build from.

  2. 02

    2. Choose your formats

    Pick which of the three to include — study guide, practice set, flashcards — and name the folder. Scholarly reads your source and generates the selected items together.

  3. 03

    3. Open one study folder

    Everything lands in one named study folder you can open, drill, and chat with. Read the guide, work the practice set, and run the flashcards — all in one place.

What's inside

What's inside every study pack

Three study formats, built from your source and saved together. You choose which ones to include.

Study Guide

An explainer PDF that lays out the key ideas from your source in a clear, readable structure, with built-in review checks so you can confirm what stuck. Delivered as a professionally typeset PDF with four free design themes — Professional, Academic, Modern, and Playful.

Practice Set

A mixed worksheet that tests your grasp of the material, complete with an answer key and worked solutions so you can check your reasoning.

Flashcards

An active-recall deck for the terms, facts, and concepts in your source — ready to drill right away to lock the material in before exam day.

Grounded in your source

Every item is generated from what's actually in your material. Scholarly reads your source instead of guessing, so the pack reflects your class — not made-up facts.

Topic-prompt mode

No file to hand? Just describe what you need — like "chapter 6 with exam-style practice and key terms" — and Scholarly writes the pack from your prompt.

One-folder workspace

Every selected item is saved together in one named study folder, so you never lose track of which class or topic the materials belong to.

Understanding over memorization

Questions and review checks target the concepts and relationships in your source, so the pack builds real understanding rather than rote recall of arbitrary values.

Choose your formats

Include all three or just the ones you need. Combine multiple sources into a single pack, and name the folder whatever fits your class.

Works across subjects

From biology to history to calculus, the pack adapts to whatever you upload — because it's built from your material, not a fixed template.

The pack creates a study guide, a practice set, and flashcards. Quizzes, podcasts, slides, and video lectures are separate Scholarly tools — they're not part of the pack.

Best for

Who the AI Study Pack is for

If you have material and an exam coming up, it saves you from building each study format by hand.

Students with a heavy syllabus

Turn a dense chapter or a week of lecture slides into a study guide, a practice set, and flashcards at once — instead of making each one separately.

Exam and test prep

Read the guide, work the practice set with its answer key, and drill the flashcards — all generated from exactly the material on your test.

Active learners

Some learn by reading, others by doing, others by recall. The pack gives you all three formats so you can study the way that works for you.

Anyone short on time

Skip the hours of reformatting notes and hand-making cards. Upload your source once and have a full study set in one run.

Honest comparison

How the AI Study Pack compares

Other tools are great at part of studying. Here's where each one wins — and why one grounded pack is faster.

NotebookLM

Best for grounded Q&A. It's excellent at answering questions about your uploaded documents and citing the exact passages back to you.

Strong at summarizing and pointing you to your sources.

It makes study guides, flashcards, and quizzes one at a time in its Studio panel, not a ready-to-study guide, worksheet, and flashcard set saved together as one pack.

Its flashcards and quizzes have no review schedule or export, so turning them into a revision routine is still a manual job.

Quizlet

Best for flashcards and shared sets. It has a huge library of community decks and a polished flashcard study experience.

Great at spaced-repetition practice once you have a set.

Building a set from your own PDF or notes is mostly manual.

Flashcards only — no study guide or practice set built from your source.

Best for students
Scholarly

Best for studying your own material. One upload becomes a study guide, a practice set, and flashcards, generated together.

Every item is grounded in your source — your syllabus, not a generic version.

All selected formats land in one study folder you can open, drill, and chat with.

Free to start, on any subject you study, generated in a single run.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What exactly is in the AI Study Pack?

Each pack contains up to three items generated from your source: a study guide (an explainer with built-in review checks), a practice set (a mixed worksheet with an answer key and worked solutions), and flashcards (an active-recall deck). You choose which of the three to include, and they're all saved together in one study folder.

Does the pack make a quiz, a podcast, or a video?

No. The Study Pack creates a study guide, a practice set (worksheet), and flashcards — that's it. Quizzes, podcasts, slides, and video lectures are separate Scholarly tools you can use on their own; they're not part of the pack.

What can I use as a source?

PDF, Word (.docx), PowerPoint (.pptx), and text files all work, and you can combine several into one pack. If you don't have a file, just type a topic prompt instead — for example, "chapter 6 with exam-style practice and key terms" — and Scholarly builds the pack from that.

Do I need a file, or can I start from just a topic?

Either works. Upload your PDF, doc, slides, or notes and the pack covers exactly that material. No file? Type a topic prompt and Scholarly writes the study guide, practice set, and flashcards from scratch.

Can I choose which formats I get?

Yes. You pick which of the three formats to include — study guide, practice set, flashcards — name the study folder, and combine multiple sources if you want. Only the formats you select are generated.

How accurate are the materials?

The pack is built from what's actually written in your source. Scholarly reads your material instead of guessing, so the study guide, practice set, and flashcards reflect your class. The questions and review checks are designed to test understanding of concepts and relationships, not trivia or arbitrary values.

Where do the materials end up?

Everything generated in a pack is saved together in one named study folder. You can open it, read the guide, work the practice set, drill the flashcards, and chat with the source — all from the same workspace, so nothing gets scattered.

Is the AI Study Pack free?

Yes — it's free to start, with a limited number of AI creations included so you can try it out. Premium unlocks ongoing creation and larger file uploads, alongside the rest of Scholarly's study tools.

How is this different from making a study guide or flashcards one at a time?

Instead of running a separate tool for each format, the AI Study Pack reads one source and builds the study guide, practice set, and flashcards together, saved in one folder. It saves setup and keeps every item grounded in the same material. If you only need one format, each one also has its own dedicated tool.

Powered by AI agents

Every tool here is a purpose-built AI agent

Scholarly doesn't just call a model once. Each feature is run by an autonomous AI agent that reads your material, reasons across multiple models, and can research the web and run code — then hands back a finished, cited artifact.

Multiple models

Agents route each step to the model that does it best, instead of relying on a single one.

Live web research

When your sources aren't enough, agents search the web and cite what they find.

Runs code in a sandbox

Each agent gets its own sandbox to compute, transform data, and build your artifact.

Grounded in your sources

Every output is built from the PDFs, notes, and lectures you upload — not guesswork.
