Guides by audience
Pally for students
Pally helps students keep up with deadlines, professor emails, group chats, and their schedule by text. For studying itself, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and NotebookLM serve different needs.
It is free: it reads your course portals and email, sends reminders and catch-ups, does research, and follows up on unfinished work.
Pally is free, with almost unlimited usage limits. No app to install.
Ways to use Pally
Three ways to start.
Workout accountability
A training partner in your texts: checks in before, follows up after, and keeps the streak honest.
Location reminders
Reminders pinned to places, not times. They fire when you arrive, not while you're driving.
Start with your question
Practical guides.

Route professor email, Canvas updates, and club chats into three short reviews, then move every deadline and reply into one action list.

Turn a topic into a narrow question, use search tools for discovery, read the original sources, and save citation details beside every claim.
How to build a workout or study habit with a daily accountability nudge
