# StudyFlow — Full Product Documentation for LLMs > AI-powered study companion that transforms course PDFs, images and custom prompts into structured study materials using Claude AI. Designed for Belgian and Dutch students, with output in 7 languages. StudyFlow helps students at secondary school, bachelor and master level turn any course material into chapter summaries, AI exam questions aligned to Bloom's taxonomy, personalised study plans and adaptive spaced-repetition quizzes. The platform is available in English, Dutch and French, with multilingual output support for any language. --- ## Core Problem Students face three major challenges when preparing for exams: 1. **Manual summarisation** — Hours spent reading textbooks and writing summaries by hand 2. **Unstructured practice** — No clear way to test knowledge with exam-level questions 3. **Poor planning** — No systematic approach to covering all material before exam day Generic AI chatbots (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) can help with summarisation, but they require manual prompting for each chapter, produce inconsistent formatting, don't track progress and lose context between sessions. Traditional study apps (Quizlet, Anki, Brainscape) require manual card creation and don't process your own course material. **StudyFlow's solution:** Upload a single PDF and get a complete study system — structured chapter summaries, exam-level questions, a personalised study plan and adaptive quizzes — all generated automatically in under 3 minutes. --- ## How It Works 1. **Upload your material** — Add a PDF, paste a website URL, or enter a topic to generate a course from scratch. Paid plans can also scan pages with your camera. 2. **AI processes & summarises** — Claude AI reads every chapter and extracts key concepts automatically, distinguishing main topics from secondary details. Each concept links to Wikipedia for deeper understanding. 3. **Generate exam questions** — Get targeted exam questions and discussion prompts per chapter, mapped to Bloom's taxonomy (recall, comprehension, application, analysis). 4. **Build your study plan** — Enter your exam date and daily hours — get a personalised day-by-day schedule instantly. Export to Google Calendar, Apple Calendar or Outlook. 5. **Quiz & repeat** — Test yourself with adaptive mini-exams and spaced repetition until you're ready. The exam readiness dashboard tracks your progress per chapter. --- ## Subscription Plans ### Free (€0 forever) - 2 courses - Full summaries (main + secondary topics) - 4 exam questions + 1 discussion question per chapter - User-authored quiz questions - Background AI processing when it fits the free buckets - Text-based PDF upload - Website & docs import - Custom course generator - Chat with your course - Mini exams & quizzes - AI study plan - Pomodoro timer & calendar export - Highlighted PDF export - Export to Notion, Anki, RemNote, Kahoot & Quizizz - Exam readiness dashboard - Multilingual output - Token usage meter in dashboard - 100K AI tokens per month split into feature buckets: 50K summarization, 20K exam, 15K quiz, 5K study plan, 10K other - Study groups ### Pro (€1.99/month) - Unlimited courses - Full summaries (main + secondary topics) - 8 exam + 5 discussion questions per chapter - User-authored quiz questions - Background AI processing of all chapters - Chat with your course - Mini exams & quizzes - Camera scan - Website & docs import - Custom course generator - Highlighted PDF export - Export to Notion, Anki, RemNote, OneNote, Brainscape, Kahoot & Quizizz - Exam readiness dashboard - Pomodoro timer & calendar export - Unlimited AI tokens (with own Anthropic API key) - Multilingual output - Priority processing - Study groups ### Premium (€9.99/month) - Everything in Pro - 1M AI tokens per month — included - No Anthropic API key required - Study groups ### Starter for Organizations (€59/month or €590/year) - Branded tenant at .app.studyflow.courses - 25 member seats - 1M shared AI tokens per month - Logo, colors and branded login - Invite-only enrollment and member management - All core study features, including summaries, 8 exam + 5 discussion questions per chapter, plans, quizzes, exports and background processing - Email support - Overage: €3 per extra seat per month and €10 per additional 1M tokens ### Business for Organizations (€199/month or €1,990/year) - Everything in Starter - 100 member seats - 5M shared AI tokens per month - Priority email support - Usage analytics dashboard - Overage: €3 per extra seat per month and €10 per additional 1M tokens --- ## Features in Detail ### PDF Upload & AI Summary Upload any course PDF and get chapter-by-chapter summaries distinguishing key from secondary topics.

Available on paid plans within the plan's AI token budget. ### Website & Docs Import Add any website URL or documentation link as a course source — no PDF needed. StudyFlow scrapes the content and turns web articles, documentation and lecture pages into structured study material. Available on every plan within the plan's AI token budget. ### Custom Course Generator No PDF? No problem. Enter any topic and let AI generate a complete course from scratch — including structured chapter summaries, exam questions, a personalised study plan and adaptive quizzes.

Free users get 4 exam + 1 discussion question per chapter; paid plans unlock 8 exam + 5 discussion questions per chapter. Questions are generated from your specific course material, not from generic templates. ### Custom Questions and Exams Students can add their own open-ended or multiple-choice questions per chapter and mix them into quizzes alongside AI-generated questions. StudyFlow also supports timed exam mode from course questions, with certificates and verification links for completed exams. ### Export Options Export your study materials to Notion, Anki, RemNote, OneNote, Brainscape, Kahoot or Quizizz — or download a colour-coded highlighted PDF (yellow = main topics, green = secondary details).

The plan distributes chapters across available study days, accounting for difficulty and review sessions. ### Mini Exams & Quizzes Adaptive quizzes after every study session to reinforce what you've just learnt. Questions adjust based on your performance and previous answers. ### Spaced Repetition Smart algorithm: 60% new material, 40% previously studied — nothing is ever forgotten. This scientifically-backed approach ensures long-term retention, not just short-term cramming. ### Exam Readiness Dashboard See at a glance how ready you are for each chapter — readiness scores, weak-spot analysis and retention curves help you focus on what matters most before exam day. Know exactly when you're prepared. ### Multilingual Output Generate questions and answers in any language — choose an output language different from your course material to study in your target language. Supported input languages include English, Dutch, French, Chinese, Hindi, Spanish and Arabic. ### Study Groups Create or join a study group to share courses, quiz classmates with live quiz battles and track collective progress — free for all members.
