StudyBuddy was built with a simple belief: the best study techniques should not require hours of manual preparation. AI can handle the busywork — creating flashcards, writing practice quizzes, building study plans — so students can focus on actually learning.
Research consistently shows that techniques like spaced repetition, active recall, and retrieval practice are far more effective than passive re-reading. But most students do not use them — because the setup is tedious.
Creating flashcards from a 50-page textbook chapter takes hours. Writing your own practice exams is impractical. Building a study schedule that actually adapts to your progress requires planning skills most people do not have.
StudyBuddy uses AI to eliminate that friction. Upload your material, and you immediately have a complete study toolkit — summaries, flashcards, quizzes, and a study plan — generated from your own course content. That is our mission: make the most effective study techniques effortless.
See all featuresThe principles that guide how we build StudyBuddy
Every feature we build starts with a real student need. We test with students, listen to feedback, and ship what actually helps people learn.
Our tools are grounded in learning science — spaced repetition, active recall, and retrieval practice. We build what the research says works.
StudyBuddy has a generous free tier because we believe effective study tools should not be a luxury. Great grades should not depend on your budget.
No dark patterns, no hidden fees, no vendor lock-in. Your data is yours. Cancel anytime. We earn your trust through good product, not tricks.
StudyBuddy is built with Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS on the web, Flutter for Android, and Supabase for the backend. Our AI layer uses a provider-agnostic architecture with automatic failover to ensure reliability.
Founder & Developer

Yes. StudyBuddy offers a generous free tier that includes 20 AI requests per day, 1 GB of storage, and access to all core features. Paid plans are available for students who need higher limits.
StudyBuddy is built on evidence-based learning science including spaced repetition (SM-2 algorithm), active recall through quizzes and flashcards, and retrieval practice. These techniques are supported by decades of cognitive science research.
StudyBuddy uses Supabase with PostgreSQL Row Level Security, ensuring each user can only access their own data. We do not sell or share your uploaded materials with third parties.
