AI STUDY TOOLS

Study tools built from sources you can trust.

Generate flashcards, study guides, quizzes, and thesis defense prep from your own notes and real, verified sources, not from an AI’s imagination. Built for postgrads, researchers, and the professors who teach them, with spaced repetition and Anki export.

WHAT IT IS

What are AI study tools in CoChat?

AI study tools in CoChat turn your notes, sources, and uploaded documents into flashcard decks, study guides, and quizzes, automatically. Cards support cloze deletion and a spaced-repetition study mode, and every deck exports to Anki. Because they are built from your verified research, you study real material, not AI-generated guesses.

Most AI study apps work like a blender: paste anything in, get flashcards out, with no way to know the content is accurate, until you are memorizing a fabricated date or a statistic the AI invented.

CoChat’s study tools sit on top of a research workspace instead. Your notes came from real sources you searched, and the facts on your cards trace back to sources verified against CrossRef. You are not just studying faster, you are studying material you can trust.

basic #1
What is the resting membrane potential of a typical neuron?
About −70 mV — the inside is negative relative to the outside.
basic #2
What triggers the rising phase of an action potential?
Voltage-gated Na+ channels open and Na+ rushes into the cell.
cloze #3
An arriving action potential opens voltage-gated {{c1::Ca2+}} channels, triggering {{c2::neurotransmitter}} release.

WHAT YOU CAN BUILD

One upload, multiple study materials

Flashcards, basic Q&A

Classic two-sided cards generated from your material, with hints and tags.

Flashcards, cloze

Anki-style fill-in-the-blank cards for definitions, sequences, and key terms.

Study guides

Structured summaries of a source or a topic, ready to review.

Quizzes

Question sets for exam prep and self-testing from your material.

Spaced-repetition mode

An in-app study loop that reschedules cards by how well you know them.

Anki export

Take any deck into Anki, no lock-in.

Thesis defense prep

Turn your thesis into a mock viva and a deck of the questions a committee is most likely to ask.

Concept maps

Turn a dense reading into a visual map of how the key ideas connect.

TWO WAYS TO USE IT

Study it, or build it for your students.

The same study tools work from both sides of the classroom.

If you are studying

Postgrads and students turn their own notes, papers, and readings into flashcards, quizzes, and thesis defense prep, then revise with spaced repetition.

If you are teaching

Professors and educators generate flashcard decks, quizzes, and study guides from course materials to share with a class, all built from verified sources, not AI guesses.

USE CASE SPOTLIGHT

Built for the moment that matters: your defense.

A thesis defense is the highest-stakes exam you will ever sit, and it is on material only you know: your own work. CoChat turns your thesis into a defense trainer.

Anticipate the questions

Generate a deck of the questions a committee is most likely to ask, drawn from your own thesis, methods, and limitations.

Run a mock viva

Switch on the Grill Me skill and CoChat interrogates your claims like the toughest member of your committee, following up on weak answers instead of accepting your first response.

Defend every choice

Build a study guide of your methods, assumptions, and limitations so you can justify each decision under pressure.

THE WORKFLOW IT UNLOCKS

Studying is the last step, not a separate app.

In a dedicated study app, studying is the whole product, so you paste material in and hope it is right. In CoChat, studying is where a research workflow lands.

The deck you drill came from the lit review you already built, sourced across seven scholarly databases and verified against CrossRef. The whole chain lives in one workspace: search, verify, build the review, generate the deck, revise. Nothing is copied between tools, and nothing on your cards traces back to a source you never checked. Then spaced repetition brings you back on a schedule, turning one session into a habit.

WHY COCHAT

Why “built from your sources” matters.

A flashcard is a trust machine: you drill it until you believe it. So if the card is wrong, the tool did not help you learn, it helped you memorize a mistake.

That is the risk in paste-anything study apps: they will generate a confident deck from an AI summary that invented half its facts, and you will not find out until the exam. CoChat’s study tools inherit the platform’s verification, so the material you drill came from real sources, surfaced by database search and checked against CrossRef. Trust a CoChat flashcard and you are trusting a chain that runs back to a verified source, one that stays in your workspace to re-study and re-export.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

1. Can AI make flashcards from my notes?
Yes. Upload your lecture notes, a PDF, or a source, and CoChat generates a flashcard deck automatically, basic Q&A or Anki-style cloze deletions. Because CoChat builds the cards from your actual material, you study what you need, not generic pre-made content.
2. What kinds of study tools does CoChat make?
CoChat builds several kinds of study material from your own sources: basic Q&A flashcards, Anki-style cloze flashcards, study guides, quizzes, and concept maps, plus thesis defense prep (a mock viva and a committee-question deck). It also includes a spaced-repetition study mode and one-click Anki export. Everything is generated from your notes, PDFs, or verified research, and stays editable and exportable.
3. What makes CoChat different from other AI study tools?
Most study apps generate cards from whatever you paste, with no way to verify accuracy. CoChat's study tools are built on a research workspace, so the material you study from comes from real sources, surfaced by database search and checked against CrossRef. You study verified material, inside the same workspace where you research it.
4. Does CoChat support spaced repetition?
Yes. CoChat includes a spaced-repetition study mode that resurfaces cards on a schedule, bringing harder cards back more often. You can also export any deck to Anki to use its scheduling on your phone.
5. Can I export my flashcards to Anki?
Yes. Every deck exports to Anki, so you can study anywhere and keep your cards even if you study across multiple tools. No lock-in.
6. Can CoChat make study guides and quizzes too?
Yes. Beyond flashcards, CoChat generates study guides and quiz questions from your uploaded material, useful for exam prep, course review, or getting fluent in a new research area quickly.
7. Can CoChat help me prepare for my thesis defense?
Yes. Turn your thesis into a defense trainer: generate a deck of the questions a committee is most likely to ask, run a mock viva where CoChat plays a skeptical committee (or two models debate your answers), and build a study guide of your methods and limitations so you can defend every choice under pressure.
8. Is it free to make flashcards with CoChat?
You can start free. Build a deck from your notes, study it with spaced repetition, and export to Anki, then explore the full research workspace the study tools are built on.
