AI Study Buddy, Smart, Scalable Support That Feels Personal

Project Overview

As part of the Personal Study Coach system, I led the design of a fully integrated AI-powered Study Buddy that provides personalized academic support to students, on demand. The goal was clear: remove friction from learning, reduce study planning overwhelm, and deliver 1-on-1 guidance at scale without hiring human tutors.

The Challenge

Students often struggle with:
Not knowing what to study or when
Getting lost in static content libraries
Lack of real-time answers or feedback
Low motivation due to isolation or lack of structure
Our mission? Create a lightweight AI assistant that solves these pains through natural conversation, automation, and smart guidance.

The Solution: A Chat-First AI Learning Companion

I designed an AI experience that feels intuitive, supportive, and proactive built into the app’s core, not added as an afterthought.
Key Capabilities:
Conversational Support: Students ask anything: from “Explain Newton’s Laws” to “Give me a quiz on photosynthesis.”
AI-Curated Content: Videos, documents, podcasts, and eBooks pulled dynamically from trusted sources.
One-Click Study Plans: AI builds weekly schedules based on available time and goals, no forms, no friction.
Dynamic Quiz Generator: The AI creates contextual quizzes aligned with what the student is learning.
Progress-Aware Suggestions: Every chat feeds the analytics engine powering smarter prompts and reminders.
