School Hack is a free study platform built around five AI tools. Students upload notes, videos, PDFs or lecture slides and the platform generates a personalised study set: Interactive Notes with highlighted key terms, auto-generated Interactive Flashcards, adaptive Interactive Quizzes with instant explanations, Study Podcasts that turn a chapter or lecture notes into a spoken summary, and Andy, an AI teacher that answers questions grounded in the student’s own notes. Collaborative Mode lets friends share decks and study together, and a Draw feature adds sketching inside notes.
Grounding the tutor in the student’s own material is the design choice that matters. A general chatbot answers from everything it has seen; Andy is described as building from your notes and checking understanding, which keeps explanations tied to the course and makes the quizzes test what was actually taught. The workflow starts from your material and ends in practice questions, which points at learning rather than answer-copying, though any AI study aid can be misused for homework shortcuts. The site claims more than 3.5 million students; that figure is self-reported.
The platform is presented as currently free and shows no pricing page, so it is unclear how it will be funded or whether limits will follow; export anything you rely on. Operator details on the pages reviewed are thin, and third-party listings place the operator in Dubai Internet City, so read the terms and privacy policy before uploading course material or personal notes.
