Turn anything you’re learning
into something you can actually study.
Give Cramlio your slides, PDFs or notes. It works out what matters, helps you learn it, tests you on it, and shows you what you still don’t know.
Free during the beta. Just an email and password.

Ecosystems & energy flow
You must know
- Producers bring energy into an ecosystem — everything above them passes it along Ecosystems.pptx, slide 4
- About 10% of the energy at one level reaches the next, so chains stop at 4–5 levels Ecosystems.pptx, slides 11–13

Examples. Cramlio builds yours from the material you give it.
A chatbot waits for you to ask the right question.
Cramlio hands you a way through.
Asking works when you already know what you don’t know. When you’re learning something, you usually don’t. So Cramlio starts from your material, not from a blank box.
Pasting it into a chat
- You decide what to ask, and hope it’s the right thing
- You get a summary, read it once, and move on
- It’s hard to tell what came from your material and what didn’t
- Nothing keeps track of what you got wrong
Giving it to Cramlio
- It tells you what matters most, and what to study first
- You learn it, then test yourself with flashcards and a quiz
- Points show where in your material they came from
- What you get wrong becomes what you study next
And when you do have a question, Helper answers it from your pack.
You bring the material. Cramlio does the sorting.
The example below is an online Python course. The steps are the same for a biology midterm, a certification, or a training deck from work.
-
1
Give it what you’re learning from
Upload PDFs, PowerPoint slides, Word docs, text files or photos of your notes, or paste text straight in. Then pick a date and how long you can study each day.
-
2
See what matters most
Cramlio reads all of it and ranks the topics by how much your material leans on them. The must-know points come first, each tied to where it came from.
-
3
Study the important parts
Each top topic is written out: what it is, the key terms, and the parts that are easy to mix up. A day-by-day plan fits it into the time you have.
-
4
Test yourself
Go through the flashcards and keep the shaky ones for another round. Then take a practice quiz on the whole pack.
-
5
Find what you don’t know yet
Your wrong answers become your weak topics, each with what tripped you up and the part of your guide to review. Then retest just those.
A retest is a short set on just the topics you missed. Whatever is still weak goes back to step 3.
Study what your material actually says.
Everything in a pack is built from what you give it, and points name the page or slide they came from. When your material leaves a gap, Cramlio says so, and anything it explains itself is labeled as its own.
Highest priority
-
1
Social engineering
The most slides in your material, and the exam objectives come back to it three times.
Threats.pptx, slides 8–19 -
2
Malware types and their signs
Each type is paired with what gives it away, which is how the objectives ask about it.
Exam objectives.pdf, page 5 -
3
Password attacks
Your notes give examples, but the slides only mention it briefly.

When your material skips something
Pretexting
Your slides list it as a type of social engineering, but never say what it is.
Pretexting is when an attacker makes up a believable story, like a fake request from IT, to get someone to hand over information or access.
Written by Cramlio, not taken from your material. Check it against your course or book before you rely on it.
- A study plan Day by day, sized to the time you said you have.
- Helper Ask about anything in the pack. Answers come from your guide and your material.
- Saved packs Your packs are saved to your dashboard, so you can pick up where you left off.

Straight answers
What can I upload?
PDFs, PowerPoint files, Word documents, plain text files, and text you paste in directly. Slides, handouts, course readings and study guides work especially well, because someone has already picked out what matters in them.
You can also add photos, screenshots and scans (PNG, JPG or WebP). Cramlio reads the text in them, so a clear, well-lit photo works best — handwriting it can’t read clearly is marked as unreadable rather than guessed. Each file can be up to 4 MB.
Who is it for?
Anyone learning from material they already have. That includes students in middle school, high school and college with a test coming up, and it works the same way for an online course, a certification, training for work, or a subject you’re teaching yourself. The study guide follows the level of the material you give it.
It works best when the material is mostly about knowing things: terms, concepts, processes, dates, definitions. If what you’re working on is mostly problem sets or essay writing, it’s less useful right now.
I don’t have a test. What date do I pick?
Whatever date you want to know it by. Cramlio uses it to size your study plan and to count down on your dashboard. If you’re not sure yet, choose 7+ and set an exact date later.
Does it actually use my material, or just general knowledge?
Your material comes first. Everything in your pack is built from what you gave it, and points reference the page or slide they came from so you can check them.
When your material names a concept but never explains it, Cramlio explains it for you, and labels that part as its own explanation, not something from your material.
Is this a homework solver?
No. Cramlio is for studying — organizing material, practicing recall and finding what you don’t know. It isn’t built to complete graded assignments, write essays or answer questions during a test, and we’re not planning to add that.
If you’re in school, check its policy on AI tools too — those vary.
Can Cramlio get things wrong?
Yes. Cramlio builds your study pack from the material you provide, and it can still make mistakes. That’s why points show where they came from — so anything that looks off is quick to check against your own material.
It also can’t tell you what will definitely be on your test. Nothing can.
Is it free right now?
Yes — Cramlio is free during the beta, with daily limits on how much you can make. There’ll be a paid plan later for people who want a lot of study packs, and we’ll tell you before anything changes.
What happens to my files?
Cramlio reads the text out of your files to build your study pack. The original files aren’t kept — only the text read from them, saved with your pack. A pack with a date is removed 7 days after that date; one without a date stays until you delete it. You can delete a pack, or your whole account, whenever you want.
Start with whatever you’ve got.
Add your files or paste your notes. Your study pack is usually ready in a minute or two.
