Explain the Krebs cycle like I'm tired…
Alright, tired-brain version: The Krebs cycle is how your cells burn fuel for energy. Acetyl-CoA joins oxaloacetate and spins through eight steps. Each turn spits out carbon dioxide, a little ATP, and the electron carriers NADH and FADH2 that feed the next stage. Two turns per glucose. That is the whole loop.

In glycolysis, what does hexokinase do?
Hexokinase adds a phosphate to glucose, releasing energy to start the pathway.
Model answer: hexokinase adds a phosphate to glucose — that step uses energy, it doesn’t release it. How’d yours line up?

Who's behind it

Chad × Stacy is built by two college students who got tired of study tools that felt like homework. No ad model, no data selling — just the study science that works, wrapped in something you'll actually open.

Even better on your phone

Snap your notes into cards, lock in with app blocking, and keep your streak alive with reminders — iOS first.

Questions, answered

What is Chad × Stacy?

An AI study app for college students. Pick your buddy — Chad (direct, hype) or stacy (warm, calm) — and study with flashcards, Learn mode, AI practice exams, study groups, and a planner that builds itself from your syllabus.

Is it free?

Yes — studying is free. AI features have a generous free tier, and Pro removes the caps.

Does the web version sync with the app?

Same account, same everything. Review a card here and your phone knows. Start a set in the app and finish it on your laptop.

Chad or stacy — what’s the difference?

Same brain, different voice. Chad gets you moving; stacy keeps you steady. The whole app recolors around your pick, and you can switch anytime.

Is my data private?

Yes — no ads, no selling data, no tracking cookies. The privacy policy is written in plain English.

Is using AI to study cheating?

Using AI to understand and practice isn’t; submitting its output as your own work is. Our honor code draws the line clearly.

Do I need the app?

No — the web app has everything. The iPhone app adds camera capture, notifications, and app-blocking focus.

What subjects does it work for?

All of them — from biology to law. Browse every subject to see how it fits yours.

Ready when you are.
