Before you start
- Plan needed: your free preview includes the study kit for your first upload. After that, the trial or a subscription is needed.
What’s in the kit
| Part | Where to find it |
|---|---|
| Summary | The Summary tab at the top of the session. |
| Study guide | Under Generated in the Galileo panel, and in the chat. |
| Flashcards | Under Generated in the Galileo panel. |
| Quiz | Under Generated in the Galileo panel. |
| Transcript and chapters (audio, video, YouTube) | The Transcript, Video or YouTube tab. |
Steps
- Add your material from the dashboard with Upload, Record, Paste or Link.
- Follow the progress card. Galileo shows steps such as “Upload PDF”, “Parse pages”, “Index for chat” and “Ready to chat”. For recordings, transcription comes first.
- Wait for “Ready”. Galileo writes “I turned this into a clean summary you can open and review.”
- Open the Summary tab to read it.
- Open the rest from Generated in the Galileo panel on the right. Choose any item to open it.
- Check your email. We send a “study kit ready” email with a link back to the session.
Tips
- Ask AI Tutor unlocks when the source is ready. Until then its button says “Unlocks when source is ready”.
- Find past kits under History, in the Artifacts tab.
- Use the Artifacts button (paperclip) at the top of a session to see everything made in that session.
Limits
- Documents have about 3 minutes to be read, and audio or video about 15 minutes to be transcribed, before processing stops.
- The kit is made from your material only. If the material is thin (a few slides), the kit will be thin too.
If something goes wrong
- “Source still preparing”. Galileo hasn’t finished reading your file. Wait a minute and try again.
- “No flashcards were produced” or “No quiz could be generated”. The source didn’t have enough content. Try Flashcards or Quiz again, or upload fuller material.
- The progress card says failed. See upload stuck or failed.
