ChatGPT answers your questions. Repeatica answers them from your own material, next to everything else for your classes.
ChatGPT is a brilliant general assistant, now with study mode, quizzes, and flashcards. Repeatica answers from your lectures, slides, and readings, and shows you where each answer came from.
Start freeThe short version
Checked October 2026Use ChatGPT for almost anything, and Repeatica when the question is about your class. ChatGPT explains nearly any topic well, and it can use files you add to a chat or a project. Repeatica answers from the lectures, slides, and readings you've saved, cites its sources, and tells you when your material doesn't cover something. Next to that, it records lectures on your phone or computer, keeps every file in one Library, and builds a course from one sentence when you want a structured path. Many students use both.

- 1Make sense of it
Ask your own material
ChatGPT answers from everything it knows, and it can use files you add to a chat or a project. Ask Repeatica answers from what you've saved: one lecture, one class's space, or your whole Library. Every answer cites its source, down to the page in a PDF, and when your material doesn't cover a question, it tells you.

Record the lecture itself
ChatGPT's Record works in the Mac app, on paid plans. Repeatica records lectures up to 2 hours long on iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, and Windows, and on a computer it can capture an online lecture's audio too. The transcript lands in your Library, ready to ask about.

Learn a topic properly
Study mode teaches inside a conversation. Repeatica can turn one sentence, like "Econ 101 midterm on November 4", into a course that stays: 2 to 40 short lessons, sized to your material and your exam date, each ending with a practice check, and an overview of what's left. Lessons from your slides say so, and lessons without material are labeled General knowledge.
