Guides

1. Create an account with your email. You will be asked whether you are 18 or older; ABright is for adults.
2. Give your learner account a name and your timezone, so the planner knows what “today” means for you.
3. Add your first course. The guide below shows how; the syllabus is the one file worth uploading first.
4. Home shows today's mission once a course is built and you have told the planner your study time. Until then it points you to the next setup step.

1. Open Courses and press Add a course. Pick your school and term, then start typing the course code or name; a match from the school's catalog or from another student fills in the details. Check them and save.
2. On the course page, upload the syllabus under Materials. ABright reads it and builds the course's concept map: the concepts, which module each belongs to, and what depends on what. The page shows each step as it happens.
3. Add slides, textbook excerpts and notes the same way. Mark where each came from (the course, or you); ABright uses that when it cites a source.

A file that could not be read says so on its line, with the reason, and offers Read again. A PDF or a photo is read by the model and counts toward your daily AI allowance; plain text, Word files and caption files do not.

1. Open Learn. The list is ordered by what to do next: concepts whose prerequisites you have, weak areas first, with a sentence saying why.
2. A lesson is taught in the mode ABright thinks will work for you, and it says why it chose that mode. Read it, then answer the three-item check and say how confident you felt.
3. If it did not land, press Teach it another way. Each attempt in each mode is evidence about how you learn.
4. Teach it back: explain the concept in your own words and ABright grades the explanation against the course's material, quoting your words at what you got right and at any misconception.

• Practice shows what is due: practice sets for concepts you are learning, flashcards whose review is due, and retention checks a few days after a lesson. Do the queue from the top.
• Flashcards are spaced: a card you know comes back later, a card you miss comes back soon.
• Mock exam builds a timed exam for an upcoming test or over a course's started concepts, graded in code, with every question explained afterwards. Only questions you answered move your mastery.

1. On the course page, under Classes, press Add a class. Give it a title and the date.
2. Choose what you have: a transcript or recording of the class, or your own notes. A transcript can be a caption file from Zoom, Teams or your school (.vtt, .srt), a text or Word file, a PDF, or text you paste.
3. A recording (.mp3, .m4a, .wav, .webm) or a video (.mp4, .mov, .m4v, .webm, .mkv) of any size works too. The sound is taken out on your device and transcribed in five-minute parts; the file itself is never uploaded, and a video's picture never leaves your device.
4. For a transcript, recording or video, confirm that you may use it: your school provides it, or the class was recorded with the teacher's permission. Your own notes need no confirmation.
5. Press Add the class. The button reports each stage. The class page then shows a summary, the key points each with the teacher's own words, the concepts covered with a Learn link, new terms, announcements, and what is worth asking about.

The text joins the course's materials, so Ask AI can cite it. A date announced in class is not added to your plan by itself; the class page points you to the Planner.

1. Open Assess and upload the graded paper as a photo or a PDF.
2. ABright reads it and stops to ask you to confirm anything it was not sure of: a mark it could not read, a score it inferred. Nothing is scored from an unconfirmed read.
3. It then classifies each mistake, maps the questions to the course's concepts, folds the evidence into your mastery, and gives you a recovery plan. Home picks the plan up.

1. Under Assess, add the assignment: paste or upload the prompt and, if you have it, the rubric.
2. Submit a draft. ABright checks it against the prompt and rubric: a requirement checklist with quotes from your draft, how it lines up with the rubric, problems it can point to, questions for you, and whether it is ready. A later draft also shows what changed.

ABright coaches and does not write. Help me reword this takes one short passage of your own draft at a time, tells you each time, and is visible to anyone you have invited into your account.

1. In Planner, set how many minutes you study each weekday.
2. Add your deadlines: let ABright find them in the syllabus (you confirm each one), import a calendar file or link from Google Calendar, Outlook or Canvas, or type them in.
3. Set goals if you like; they weight the plan. ABright plans the next two weeks a day at a time, and Home shows today's mission.
4. Tasks tick themselves off when you do the work anywhere in the app. If you miss days, press I'm behind: the plan is redone from today, carrying the important missed work and saying plainly what will not fit.

• Progress shows the concept map with your mastery, weak areas with their reasons, confidence against results, which ways of learning have worked best for you, and time to proficiency.
• Weekly is one Monday-to-Sunday week: improvement, work done, what to watch, next priorities, with history back to your first week and a printable page.
• Rewards lists StudyPoints and achievements, each with what earned it: outcomes, improvement, persistence and goals.

Ask AI answers from your course materials and cites them. It knows which course you are in and what you are working on. A question it cannot answer from your materials gets that answer, not a guess. There is a limit on how fast questions can be asked, so a stuck tab cannot spend your allowance.

1. In Settings, invite a parent, guardian or teacher by email. They join the account in that role.
2. They see Home with what needs them, this week, today's plan, upcoming deadlines, progress and the weekly report, all read-only. They do not see Ask AI conversations.

• Plan and AI use shows today's and this month's AI use against your plan's allowance, and the plans open to your account.
• Export my data gives you everything in the account as files.
• Delete this account removes it. The privacy policy says what is kept for how long.
