DueToday vs ChatGPT
ChatGPT answers questions.
DueToday helps you learn your course.
ChatGPT is a general-purpose chatbot, not a study tool. It doesn't record your lectures, keep your material organised by course, or build the flashcards, quizzes and spaced-repetition reviews that prepare you for exams. DueToday does all of that from your own notes.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
You can prompt ChatGPT to generate flashcards, but it requires manual copy-pasting of your notes, specific prompt engineering, and then manually copying the output into a flashcard app. DueToday does the same thing in one click, saves everything automatically, and adds spaced repetition on top.
DueToday uses AI models optimised for study tasks. The output is structured specifically for learning — not a general chat response.
DueToday. It's purpose-built for exam prep, with structured quizzes, spaced repetition and content grounded in your own materials, and it tracks what you know and schedules your revision.
ChatGPT's Study Mode doesn't record your lectures, turn every source into a saved deck and quiz, or schedule spaced-repetition reviews. DueToday does all three.
