"Studying shouldn't feel like punishment. It should feel like the 45 minutes before your friend gets to the coffee shop — quick, focused, a little fun."
StudyBuddy is a study app that turns any PDF you upload — the textbook chapter, the class notes, the study guide — into seven ways of learning it. Verbatim. Quiz. Flashcards. Summary. Key terms. True/false. Match.
We built it because every other study app makes you make the flashcards yourself. Which is, uh, the hard part. We flipped that: you hand us the material, we hand you the practice.
Because re-reading doesn't work. Active recall does. And nobody has time to build perfect flashcards at 1am before a test.
Quiz, flashcards, summary, key terms, true/false, match — plus the original text, cleaned up and readable.
Drop the chapter, get a study set in about a minute. No more "I'll make flashcards tomorrow."
English in, English out. Afrikaans in, Afrikaans out. Your test speaks the language of your notes.
You upload. We read. You pick a mode. We generate. You study.
Under the hood, StudyBuddy reads your PDF — even scanned or photographed pages — pulls out the key concepts, and generates questions, cards and summaries from what's actually on the page, in the language it was written in.
Upload the same document as a classmate and you get the same test — generated once, shared by everyone studying the same material. If a set misses the mark, one click regenerates it.
A dad and his two daughters who got tired of making practice tests by hand.
Spent years reading Olivia's schoolwork and writing out practice tests by hand. With an actual pen. Eventually decided the computer should do the boring bit so he could keep the fun bit: watching the marks go up.
The original user. Every feature in this app exists because she had a test coming up and needed it to exist. Chief complainer, chief idea machine, first to spot when something looks "a bit off".
Quality assurance department. Nothing ships until it survives her clicking every button in the wrong order. Also in charge of morale.
This started with a pen. Since about Grade 4, Olivia would hand her schoolwork over before every test, and Dad would read it and write out a fresh practice test by hand — new questions, same material. She'd work through it, and by the time the real test arrived it felt like a rerun.
Around Grade 6 we got smarter about it: photograph the worksheets, upload them to an AI model, let it write the practice tests. Better — but still a lot of fiddling.
Now Olivia's in Grade 8 and everything she does at school exports as a PDF. So we did the obvious thing: we built the app. Then the logo. Then the marketing page. Then all the testing and iterating and arguing about sticker colours. It turns out "building an app" is about 10% app.
Everything you see here is solving a very real problem for one very specific student — and along the way, two students are learning how software actually gets made.
