Presto simplifies study and revision ... Presto!

The world's best AI Community powered study and revision assistant

Presto is all about moving faster and studying smarter

No one can get their hands on more time. No matter if you are a teacher or a student, there is never enough time in the day to get everything done. Study takes time to prepare for and do well; teaching takes more time than you have.

Presto implements Deep Learning AI designed to read and curate texts, and create high-value assessment and study materials for students and educators to increase efficiency. Presto also creates Study Decks that make it really simple to build reminder flashcards. Spaced Repetition drives a study schedule from quizzes and student decks, reminding you that you should revise a subject / topic again.

Presto reduces hours of study preparation time by building everything you need to revise and study for any subject or topic, in seconds.

Presto powers a student learning network where students learn together

What is Presto?

Presto lets teachers and students create text summaries, quizzes and flashcards for revision and for study from any digital text. Students use Presto to prepare and share study materials. Teachers use Presto to create instant study notes, quizzes and formative interactions in class. Your imagination drives Presto – it was made to save time and get your revision and study job done with smarter support. At the moment, Presto can only create quizzes and flashcards from English language text, but it will create study notes in several languages. We already have a version that creates study notes and flashcards in simplified Chinese.

What does Presto do?

Study notes, quizzes and flashcards

Presto brings Artificial Intelligence (AI) capabilities into the daily study, revision and assessment routine of every teacher and student. Presto creates instant study notes, revision quizzes and flashcards from any text, PDF, Docx or Google Doc, in seconds. The result is what we call a 'Presto' and every Presto can be shared in an online library with colleagues or friends in many ways.

Study Decks

Presto also creates Study Decks, a fabulous way for students and teachers to create memory jog reminders that don't have to be built as quizzes - in a questions and answer format. Study Cards are perfect for language learning, glossary terms, in fact anything that you have to learn that you have to remember as a fact to underpin critical analysis or thinking. Imagine having to write an essay in a second language without knowing any words. Sometimes there are facts and information content that you just have to know.
