Is the study guide maker free?

Winda is free to start and needs no credit card. Making a guide uses AI credits, and the free plan has a monthly amount of them. Reading your files and reviewing flashcards do not use credits.

Can I edit the guide?

Yes. The guide is a document in your project. Edit it directly, or ask in the chat for a change, such as more detail on one concept or a shorter version.

Can I get flashcards or a quiz from the same material?

Yes. In the same project, ask for flashcards or a quiz on the topic. They are made from the same files and kept beside the guide.

Study guide maker

Name a topic or add your PDF, lecture or notes. Winda writes a study guide to it: the concepts, the processes, the mistakes people make, and questions to test yourself.

Free to start · No credit card needed

ExampleA study guide to the Roman Empire.

What you get

Core concepts: Each concept of the topic, defined in a sentence or two, in the order you need them.
Key processes or arguments: How the topic works, step by step: a proof, a mechanism, a line of reasoning.
Common mistakes: The errors learners make on this topic, each with the reason it is wrong.
Self-test questions: Five to eight questions with short answers at the end, to check you can use the guide closed.

What makes a study guide useful

A study guide is not a shorter copy of the textbook. It is the topic put in the order you would explain it: what the terms mean, how the main process or argument runs, and where people go wrong. A guide that only lists headings tells you what to study but does not help you study it.

The self-test questions matter most. Reading a guide feels like learning, but you find out what you know only when you answer with the guide closed. Read a section, close it, answer its questions, and go back to the parts you missed.

When you add your own material, the guide follows your course: its terms, its examples and its emphasis. A guide written from general knowledge is a good start on a new topic, but before an exam, make it from the lectures and readings the exam is set on.

How it works

Say what it is about
Name a topic, or add a PDF, a lecture video, an article or your own notes. With files, the result is written from them.
Winda makes it
The template sets the form, so you do not write a prompt. You choose the model that does the work: Claude, GPT, Gemini and others.
Keep it and change it
The result is saved in your project beside your files and chats. Ask for a change in the chat, or make flashcards and a quiz from the same material.

Questions

Yes. Add the PDF, the YouTube lecture, the article or your notes to a project and name the file in your message. The guide is written from that material. Without a file, it is written from the topic you name.
