Why I built this

My daughter Ava is a good student. She'd work with her mom and dad going through flashcards before tests — and it worked. But sometimes she'd get frustrated. Same cards, same routine, over and over.

One morning after a review session I couldn't stop thinking: there has to be a more fun, more creative way to go through a study guide. That same day I built a prototype. Two days later I showed it to her.

“How did you do that?”

— Ava

She's used AvaStudy on every study guide since and has gotten perfect to near-perfect grades. That's where the name comes from. If it can help others the way it's helped Ava, that's what it's for.

Built with safety in mind

Completely ad-free

No third-party ads anywhere in the app. Ever.

No microtransactions

Coins are earned by studying — correct answers, games, streaks. There is no way to buy coins with real money.

Private by default

Study guides are only visible to others if your child chooses to share them with a code.

Data is never sold

We never sell personal information to third parties. Full stop.

Delete anything, anytime

Any study guide or the entire account can be deleted at any time from within the app.

Parent controls

A dedicated Parents & Safety screen lets parents review account details and delete all data without contacting anyone.

How it works

1

Your child uploads a study guide — a photo of their notes, a PDF, or pasted text. The content comes from their teacher's actual material.

2

AI extracts the key concepts — from that material, not general knowledge — and builds 11 games from it. If it gets a term or question wrong, your child can fix it in a couple of taps.

3

They practice, earn coins, and level up their pet — the game mechanics keep kids engaged without any real-money purchases.

4

The app targets what they keep missing — it tracks their confidence on each concept and brings the weak ones back, spaced out, until they're solid. Not the same list every time.

Does it actually help them learn?

The games are the hook; the learning comes from what's underneath. AvaStudy scores your child's confidence on every concept in their guide and uses spaced repetition— the study method with the strongest research behind it — to resurface the ones they haven't locked in. A concept they've mastered spaces out; one they start missing comes back. Their Daily Challenge and Practice sessions are assembled from their own weak spots, so the time they spend is aimed at what's actually still shaky before the test.

Your child sees it too — a topic-by-topic view of what they've mastered and what still needs work, so studying feels like progress they can point to rather than a wall of cards.

Parent FAQ

Will my child be charged anything?
The free plan is completely free — no credit card required. Building 3 study guides a month and all 11 games are free, along with a readiness score and a short Mini Practice Quiz. The only charge is if a parent chooses to subscribe to AvaStudy Unlimited ($6.99/month or $59.99/year, beta pricing), which adds unlimited uploads plus full Practice Tests and a personalized study plan; the monthly plan can start with a 3-day free trial, after which it renews automatically until canceled. Billing goes through Stripe's secure checkout, requires a credit card entered by an adult, and children cannot add a payment method or change billing on their own.
Are there in-app purchases or microtransactions?
No. Coins are earned by studying — correct answers, completing games, and daily streaks. They're spent on cosmetic items for the pet (background colors, hats, glasses, frames). There is no way to buy coins with real money, no loot boxes, and no premium currency.
What data does AvaStudy collect?
AvaStudy collects the minimum needed to run the app: a Google account email for sign-in, and the content your child uploads to create study guides. We do not collect browsing history, location, or any sensitive personal data. Nothing is sold to third parties.
What age is AvaStudy for?
AvaStudy is built for K–12 students — the grade picker runs from kindergarten through high school, with College and a not-in-school option for older learners — and the material comes from whatever your child is actually studying. Sign-up requires confirming that the user is 13 or older, or that a parent or guardian is assisting, and for a child under 13 we expect a parent or guardian to set up and oversee the account. We collect only what the app needs to run: a Google account name and email for sign-in, a first name, a grade level, and the study material your child uploads. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a child under 13 without a parent or guardian involved, and you can review or delete all of it at any time from Settings → Parents & Safety.
Can I see whether the studying is actually working?
Yes. Your child can log the grade they got on a real test for a guide, and the weekly progress email connects it — "practiced this guide four times, then scored 91%." The grade is private to your child's account; a teacher who shared the guide never sees it. It's there so you can see practice turning into results, not just time spent.
If my child's teacher assigns homework, can I keep track of it?
Yes. The weekly progress email has a Homework section: how many assignments are turned in versus outstanding, how many were finished late, and any that are overdue, by name. Your child is alerted in the app the moment a guide is assigned, and each assignment shows a banner that tracks their progress toward turning it in. Late work still counts — it is marked late rather than blocked, since the point is that they do the review.
Can I delete my child's account?
Yes — account deletion is built into the app under Settings → Parents & Safety. Deletion is immediate and permanent: all study guides, progress, coins, and personal data are erased. You can also contact us directly and we will handle it immediately.
