An AI tutor that actually teaches you.

Upload your notes and slides, and SyncroTutor plans lessons from them. Each one is checked for accuracy before you hear it, and you can stop it to ask a question whenever you want.

We'll only email you about SyncroTutor.

Let's work out how many tablets to give.

Start with what was ordered: 500 milligrams.

Each tablet in the bottle holds 250 milligrams.

How it works

  1. Upload your notes

    Your notes, slides and readings, for any class.

  2. It plans the lessons

    SyncroTutor works out how many lessons the material needs and what goes in each one.

  3. It checks them

    Each lesson is reviewed for accuracy before it's ready.

  4. It teaches you

    You listen and answer out loud, and you can stop it to ask a question at any point.

What's different

It starts at the beginning

Most study tools assume you already understand the material and quiz you on it. SyncroTutor teaches it in order, in lessons of 30 to 45 minutes, and checks in with you as it goes.

Checked before you hear it

General AI can be wrong and sound completely sure of itself. Every lesson goes through an accuracy review and a final check before it plays, and math is worked step by step by a checker that shows where you went wrong.

You can talk to it

Ask a question in the middle of a lesson and it answers in the same voice, then picks up where it left off. Answer its check-ins out loud, or type if you'd rather.

It teaches what your class covers

Lessons come from the notes, slides and readings you upload, in any subject. A printable study guide lets you follow along.

Easier to stay with

We built it for students who lose focus reading on their own, including students with ADHD. You listen and talk back instead of rereading the same page.

Costs less than a tutor

Private tutoring is expensive, and finding someone who teaches the way you learn is hard. SyncroTutor costs less, and it's there at 2am the night before the exam.

Why I built SyncroTutor

Since Covid, hybrid and fully online classes have become normal. A lot of students would do much better with a real teacher, especially students with learning challenges, instead of teaching themselves from mountains of readings and recorded lectures.

When my wife started nursing school, she learned in the first week that her professors weren't there to teach. They were there to manage and grade. Students were expected to teach themselves everything, and that doesn't work for everyone.

She tried hiring tutors. They were extremely expensive, and none of them could be there as often as she needed. At one point she was meeting with four tutors, several times a week each, and it still wasn't enough.

I noticed she learned much more easily when I went over her material with her than when she read it on her own. But there was no way I could be her teacher full time and still keep my job, so I started building something that could.

My wife became my first tester. For months, her complaints, suggestions and offhand comments were my feedback loop. I reworked it over and over until it was teaching her all of her courses accurately, and in a way that felt natural.

Before SyncroTutor, she was stressed about falling behind and worried she wouldn't pass her exams. She passed all of them.

That's when I realized this is probably a problem a lot of students have, and it isn't one they should have to deal with on their own.
