Study library, AI homework help, and 24/7 tutor access in one place
Search by school and course to reach lecture notes, study guides, past exams, and assignment solutions shared by students at thousands of institutions.
Submit a question and get AI-generated explanations and recommended study content rather than an unexplained final answer.
Ask a tutor at any hour across core subjects and receive a worked, expert-checked response, usually within minutes.
Work through textbook problems and math questions with structured, step-by-step solutions rather than answer keys alone.
Handwritten notes, PDF markup, and AI study tools on one canvas
Low-latency ink with palm rejection, cross-out to erase, and handwriting-to-text conversion keeps writing close to pen on paper.
Import contracts, papers, or textbooks and mark them up by hand, with searchable annotations and clean exports.
Search across typed text, handwriting, and sketches, and turn notes into summaries, mind maps, or structured plans.
Work together in shared notebooks, documents, and whiteboards simultaneously, without version conflicts or file ping-pong.
