What Gizmo is good at
Gizmo turns notes into flashcards and schedules them with spaced repetition, with a quiz-game feel that suits short sessions on a phone.
Use Gizmo for
Drilling on a phone in small bursts, with review timed for you.
Where students need more
- Recall practice is one stage of revision — it does not explain what you got wrong.
- The same upload does not also become notes, a mind map or a podcast.
- There is no tutor holding your source to answer a follow-up question.
Switching from Gizmo
Where StudiSpace is the better fit for the same coursework, and where Gizmo still is.
Switch if
- You want the explanation as well as the drill, from the same material.
- You want one upload to produce every format instead of just cards.
- You want to ask why an answer is right rather than only whether it was.
Stay with Gizmo if
- Short phone sessions are your whole routine and cards are all you want.
What the switch looks like
- 1Upload the source rather than typing notes in first.
- 2Take the cards it writes, scheduled the same way.
- 3When one keeps failing, ask the tutor about it instead of guessing.
- 4Use the quiz and the notes from the same upload to close the gap.

Your questions, answered
Does StudiSpace schedule reviews like Gizmo?
Yes. Flashcard review is spaced rather than random, so cards you keep missing return sooner.
What happens when I keep getting a card wrong?
Ask the tutor about it. It answers from the material the card was generated from, so the explanation matches your source.
Can I study on my phone?
Yes, on the web and on the iOS app.
Does StudiSpace replace Gizmo entirely?
For drilling it covers the same ground with scheduled review. The difference is that the same upload also becomes notes, a quiz, a mind map and a podcast, with a tutor that can explain any of them.
Do I need to create an account to start?
No. You can upload your material and generate study content immediately without registering. You'll only need an account if you want to save your progress.
What types of files can I upload?
We accept PDFs, Word documents, images (PNG, JPG), text files, and you can also paste content directly or share links to videos and articles.
How does the AI Tutor work?
The AI Tutor analyzes your study material and can answer specific questions about that content. They're not generic answers, but based on what you've uploaded.
Are the generated materials editable?
Yes, completely. Everything the AI generates is just a starting point. You can edit, add or reorganize any content as you prefer.
How long does it take to generate the content?
Normally between 10-30 seconds depending on the size of the material and the number of formats you select.
