Upload anything. Learn everything.
Scholium transforms your lectures, PDFs, and notes into AI-powered flashcards, quizzes, and personalized curricula—using techniques proven by cognitive science to help you remember more in less time.
500+ students on the waitlist
Simple as 1-2-3
From upload to understanding in minutes
No complicated setup. No learning curve. Just better studying.
Upload your materials
Drop in anything—lecture recordings, PDF textbooks, PowerPoint slides, YouTube videos, or your own notes. Scholium handles over 20 file formats and extracts every bit of useful content.
AI builds your knowledge base
Our AI doesn't just read your documents—it understands them. It identifies key concepts, maps relationships between ideas, and creates a searchable knowledge graph unique to your materials.
Study with proven techniques
Generate flashcards with optimized spaced repetition, take practice quizzes, or follow AI-created curricula. Every study tool is backed by cognitive science research showing what actually works.
Powerful features
Everything you need to master any subject
Built by students who were tired of ineffective study tools. Designed around what the research says actually works.
Spaced repetition that actually works
Forget generic flashcard apps with arbitrary review schedules. Scholium uses FSRS—the most accurate spaced repetition algorithm available—to predict exactly when you're about to forget each card. Review at the optimal moment, and you'll remember 90%+ of what you study with minimal effort.
Connect ideas across everything
Unlike other tools, Scholium connects concepts across all your materials—lectures, textbooks, notes. See how different sources explain the same ideas.
Sync recordings with slides
Upload a recording and slides together. Scholium auto-syncs them for timestamped study. Click any slide to hear that moment.
Works with your existing tools
Export to Anki, sync with Notion, add to Google Calendar. Your data, your tools, your choice.
Research-backed
Built on cognitive science, not guesswork
Every technique in Scholium is grounded in peer-reviewed research. Here's what the science says about how we learn best.
Successive Relearning
Requiring three or more correct recalls across separate study sessions produces massive, durable retention gains. This is the single most effective technique identified in learning science research.
Rawson & Dunlosky, 2022
Testing Effect
Actively retrieving information from memory—through flashcards, practice tests, or free recall—is dramatically more effective than passive review like re-reading or highlighting.
Adesope et al., 2017
Spaced Practice
Distributing your study sessions over time, rather than cramming everything into one marathon session, consistently produces better long-term retention across all types of material.
Cepeda et al., 2006
Elaborative Interrogation
Asking yourself "why" and "how" questions while studying forces deeper processing and creates stronger memory traces than simply reading for understanding.
Dunlosky et al., 2013
