AI tutor for each student.

YouLearn is an AI tutor personalized to each student. It turns your learning materials into concise notes, an AI tutor you can talk to, and personalized tests. In the last eight months, we’ve grown from $1K to $77K MRR, and over 200,000 students use YouLearn each month. Achyut, Soami, and David have known each other for the past two and a half years, having started building projects in their dorms. Soami interned at Groq, Achyut built six AI apps in one summer, and David grew an audience of over 200M views on Instagram and TikTok. As recent college dropouts, we saw daily how students learn with AI and where current tools fall short. We believe every student will have a personal AI tutor, and we’re building the one you’ll never want to skip class on.

📍 How we started

We met two weeks into college and started hacking on projects in our dorm. By sophomore year, we were fed up with watching long, outdated lecture videos and reading dense textbooks, only to forget a few days later. Generic AI tools gave quick answers, but those shortcuts left us with only surface-level understanding. We kept cramming before exams, forgetting most of it soon after, and repeating the same cycle.

💻 What we built

Out of that frustration, we built YouLearn. Upload any learning material, and YouLearn turns it into clear notes, an AI tutor that walks you through the topic, and adaptive quizzes to help you remember. Learning is now faster, easier, and more memorable.

🧑‍🎓 Why students choose YouLearn

  • Designed by students, for students: As recent undergrads, we lived the stress of college life, so we built YouLearn’s AI tutor and quizzes to solve these challenges.
  • Everything in one place: One upload instantly delivers notes, an AI tutor, and quizzes. No more bouncing between ChatGPT, Quizlet, Notion, etc.
  • Made for exam success: Take practice tests with full answer breakdowns, track your progress, and pinpoint your weak spots (e.g, “Review Page 42, paragraph 1”).

📚 Building a better way to study

Today, over 150,000 students use YouLearn each month to study smarter, with more than 2.2 million+ learning materials uploaded. One med student told us he didn’t think AI could do this until he started acing exams with perfect scores across multiple courses. His friend jumped from 60% to 90% using YouLearn, and now four of his classmates have upgraded. As he puts it:

I got better grades than people that went to class. Because literally for me, it's my tutor.

This is just the start. We believe every student will have a personal AI tutor, and we’re building the one they’ll never want to miss a class on.
