AI Study Pack
AI Study Pack turns a single upload into a complete study folder. Choose any combination of a structured study guide, a practice worksheet with a full answer key, and a flashcard deck, and Scholarly builds the ones you picked from your material in one pass, filing them all in a new folder so you can sit down and start working right away.
It's the fastest way to go from "I have a document to learn" to "I have everything I need to learn it" — a certification module, a new compliance policy, or a product manual a team has to absorb.
Creating a Study Pack
Open Study Pack from More tools on Home. It is not in the New menu — More tools is where it lives. You can also start one from inside a folder, and anything you create there is filed into that folder. The create modal supports the same source types as Scholarly's other AI tools:
- Upload Files — PDFs, Word documents, PowerPoints, or text files. Use 1 source on Free, up to 10 on Premium, or 20 on Laureate 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 Connections.
- Link — Paste a website or PDF URL and the AI pulls in the content.
For PDFs, pick a page range so the pack only covers the chapter you actually need.
What's Inside a Study Pack
After picking your source, a Pack contents step lets you choose which artifacts to include — all three are selected by default, but you can uncheck any of them:
- A study guide. An exam-ready, professionally typeset 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.
Whatever you select is saved into a single folder named for your topic, so the pack lives in your library as one tidy unit instead of loose files.
Customization Options
- Pack contents — Choose any combination of the study guide, worksheet, and flashcards. Each item you include uses one AI Creation Credit.
- Study focus — An optional free-text field to steer everything you generate 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.
Whichever combination you pick, the artifacts stay 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 for each one.
When to Use a Study Pack
- Preparing for a certification or assessment. One upload, a folder you can work through end to end.
- Section-by-section review. Build a pack per chapter or module so each part has its own folder.
- Onboarding and training. Send a pack to a new hire or a student so they have a self-contained unit to work through.
- A pile of source material. Drop in a slide deck and a reading; come back to a guide, a practice set, and a deck.
Generation and Background Tasks
A Study Pack generates everything you selected in one go, so it takes longer than building any one artifact 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 you don't have enough AI Creation Credits left for everything you've selected, an inline warning tells you how many you're short — uncheck an item or upgrade to continue. Clicking Generate Study Pack past your limit opens your upgrade options instead of failing silently.
Limits
A Study Pack counts one AI Creation Credit for each artifact you include — up to three if you generate the guide, worksheet, and deck together. On Free, those draw from your 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 manual.
- 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.
