AI Study Pack
AI Study Pack turns a single upload into a complete study folder. Scholarly generates three things from your material in one pass — a structured study guide, a practice worksheet with a full answer key, and a flashcard deck — and files them all in a new folder so you can sit down and start studying right away.
It's the fastest way to go from "I have a chapter to learn" to "I have everything I need to learn it."
Creating a Study Pack
Open AI Study Pack from the home page bento grid, the New menu, or a folder. The create modal supports the same source types as Scholarly's other AI tools:
- Upload Files — PDFs, slides, notes, images, audio. Up to 3 sources per pack.
- Prompt AI — describe a topic and let Scholarly build the pack from scratch.
- Library — pick files you've already uploaded.
- Google Drive — pick a Doc, Sheet, Slides deck, PDF, or Word doc directly. See Connected Apps.
For PDFs, pick a page range so the pack only covers the chapter you actually need.
What's Inside a Study Pack
Every pack contains three artifacts, generated together:
- A study guide. An exam-ready, themeless PDF you can read, print, and review from. Organized around the key concepts in your source. See AI Study Guides.
- A practice worksheet. A printable practice set with a full answer key — mixed question types focused on the same material the study guide covers. See AI Worksheets.
- A flashcard deck. A spaced-repetition deck on the same content, ready for study mode. See Flashcards.
All three are saved into a single folder named for your topic, so the pack lives in your library as one tidy unit instead of three loose files.
Customization Options
- Custom instructions — Steer all three artifacts at once ("focus on the chemistry of photosynthesis, skip the history").
- Language — Generate the whole pack in any supported language.
- Page selection — For PDFs, pick the exact pages everything should be built from.
The three artifacts are consistent with each other: the worksheet tests what the guide teaches, and the flashcards cover the same concepts. You don't have to re-narrow your scope three times.
When to Use a Study Pack
- Cramming for an exam. One upload, a study folder you can work through end to end.
- Mid-term review. Build a pack per chapter so each section has its own folder.
- Teaching or tutoring. Send a pack to a student so they have a self-contained study unit.
- Coursework dump. Drop in lecture slides and a reading; come back to a guide, a practice set, and a deck.
Generation and Background Tasks
A Study Pack generates three things in one go, so it takes longer than building any one of them alone. You can close the tab — Scholarly finishes the pack in the background and surfaces it in your library when it's ready. See Background Tasks.
If the Generate button is disabled, you've hit your free AI creation cap. The button opens your upgrade options instead of looking clickable but doing nothing.
Limits
A Study Pack counts as three creations against your shared AI creation allowance (one each for the guide, worksheet, and deck). On Free, those are lifetime free credits. Paid plans raise the allowance significantly. See Plans and Limits.
Tips
- A focused source produces a focused pack. Picking page ranges on a long PDF gives you a tighter guide, a sharper worksheet, and more relevant flashcards than uploading the whole textbook.
- Pair a Study Pack with an AI Video Lecture on the same material if you also want a narrated visual explainer.
- Once you've worked through the pack, run an Exam on the flashcard deck for a full timed review. See Quizzes and Exams.
