Frequently Asked Questions

Can Docly help me study for an exam?

Yes — upload your textbook or notes and ask Docly to summarize a chapter, explain a concept, or highlight what's most important to review.

Can Docly quiz me on the material?

Yes, ask Docly to "quiz me" on a chapter and it will generate questions based on the actual content you uploaded.

Will it just give me the answers, or actually help me understand?

Docly explains concepts in plain language and cites exactly where in the text the explanation comes from, so you can go back and read the original passage if you want to understand it more deeply.

What subjects does Docly work for?

Any subject where the material is text-based — humanities, sciences, business, law, and more. It reads whatever you upload.

Can I upload a whole textbook, or just one chapter?

Either works. For very long textbooks, keep in mind each plan has a page limit per document (see pricing for details), so uploading a chapter at a time may work better on the Free plan.

Is this considered cheating?

Docly is a study aid, similar to asking a tutor to explain a passage — it's meant to help you understand your own course material faster, not to complete graded work for you. Always follow your institution's academic integrity policies.
