Study with AI for free
The free workflow is designed for a real study task, not a restricted marketing demo. Upload one source, wait for processing, then move between the generated notes, flashcards, quizzes, fill-in-the-blanks, test, mind map, and tutor tools available for that study set.
A Gmail account is currently required to create a private Mindley workspace. No payment card is requested when you create the Free plan account.
What you can upload
Mindley accepts common course materials and converts them into text that its study tools can use.
- PDF, DOCX, and PPTX documents
- TXT and Markdown files
- JPG, PNG, WEBP, GIF, BMP, HEIC, and HEIF images
- Public YouTube links with an available transcript
- Pasted text for notes or lessons
- Up to 10 source files in one set, subject to the plan size limit
What you can create
Each output uses the same underlying source, which keeps the study workflow connected.
- Structured, editable study notes
- Question-and-answer flashcards
- Multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank practice
- Written-answer tests
- Visual mind maps
- Source-aware AI tutor conversations
How the free AI study tool works
- Add an eligible file, public YouTube link, or pasted text.
- Mindley extracts the source and creates a private study set.
- Review the notes, verify important facts, then practise with the tools that suit the topic.
Built for different subjects and learning styles
Use concise notes for a first pass, flashcards for definitions, quizzes for quick checks, tests for written practice, and mind maps for relationships. The most useful combination depends on the subject: a history timeline needs a different review method from a formula-heavy mathematics topic.
Your study files stay private
Private study-set routes require authentication and are excluded from the public sitemap. Mindley processes uploaded content to provide the requested study features. Review the Privacy Policy for retention, service-provider, and account-deletion details.
Frequently asked questions
Is Mindley free to use?
Yes. The current Free plan includes one lifetime study-set creation, a 10 MB file limit, core study tools, and standard processing.
Can Mindley generate notes from a PDF?
Yes. Digital PDFs are supported. Scanned or image-heavy PDFs can be less reliable because text extraction depends on image quality and document structure.
Can I create flashcards and quizzes from the same file?
Yes. Once processing finishes, the same private study set can support notes and multiple practice formats.
Are uploaded files public?
No. User study sets are authenticated, excluded from the public sitemap, and should remain protected by account ownership checks.
Can the generated material be wrong?
Yes. AI can misunderstand a source or omit context. Verify high-stakes or exam-critical information against the original material and your course guidance.
