Here's what I actually do

Why students switch to Koa

Catches What You Missed

Koa notices when you're stuck and guides you before you fall behind. Like a TA who's always available.

Draws It Out For You

Diagrams and visual breakdowns that make complex concepts click. Point at a problem and Koa explains it.

Study While Walking

Listen to explanations out loud. Study on the bus, at the gym, or while cooking. Your eyes get a break.

Notes + Tutor in One

Take notes and ask for help without switching apps. Math, code, and formatting built in.

Knows What You Don't

Tracks your weak spots across sessions. Focuses on what you actually need to review, not everything.

Knows Your Courses

Connect Canvas, Moodle, or Brightspace. Koa imports your courses, deadlines, and grades automatically.

Three steps. That's it.

How Koa Works

Three steps to better understanding.

1

Connect your school

Link your Canvas, Moodle, or Brightspace account. Koa pulls in your courses, deadlines, and materials automatically.

2

Start a session

Koa asks you questions, explains concepts, and draws diagrams - adapting to your level in real time.

3

Build understanding

Through conversation, not memorization. Koa tracks your progress session over session.

Not to brag, but...
Koa

Not another flashcard app

There's a difference between getting answers and understanding them.
