Three steps to the podium.

1

Pick your exams

Choose what you're studying for — SAT, CPA, NCLEX, anything. Each one gets its own tab and its own league.

2

Drop in your notes

Paste notes or upload PDFs and Word docs. Podium writes exam-style practice questions, flashcards and full mock exams.

3

Study, compete, repeat

Every question earns XP. Keep your streak, beat your friends, and climb your exam's weekly board.

Competition that's fair. Rewards that are real.

Fair leagues for every exam

You compete with people studying for the same test. A CPA grind isn't ranked against SAT practice — and the All-Exams board weights XP by exam difficulty.

Real mock exams

Upload enough notes and Podium builds a full-length mock with the real question count and time limit. Every attempt is saved so you can watch yourself improve.

Verified results

Passed the real thing? Upload your score report or license. Our team checks it before the blue Verified badge appears — nobody can just claim it.

Badges that mean something

From your first 100 questions to weekly Gold Podium finishes, every badge is earned on the server. No shortcuts, so they're worth showing off.

Friends & head-to-head

Add friends, share your study sets, and challenge them to the same 10 questions. Fastest perfect score takes the win.

Campus & state leagues

Represent your college or your state. See which campus studies hardest every week.

Studying alone is hard. Studying together is a game.

Our mission is to make studying more fun: connect with friends, motivate each other, and compete with each other, so everyone shows up on test day ready to win.

Your study group, upgraded.

Friend your classmates, share study sets and mock exams in one tap, and see each other's progress in your feed. Following a friend who's on a different exam? Their activity still shows up.

  • Share notes, questions, flashcards and mocks
  • Head-to-head challenges on the same questions
  • Friends-only leaderboard for every exam

Bring your decks with you.

Questions

Is Podium free?+

Yes. Podium is free during the founding season, including AI-generated questions up to a generous daily limit. Our free Smart Extract generator is unlimited.

How do you stop people from cheating the leaderboard?+

All grading and XP happen on our server, not in your browser. Speed-clicking, re-answering questions you just mastered, and grinding past a daily cap earn no XP. Passing an exam only counts once our team verifies your official result.

Why are leaderboards split by exam?+

A CPA question isn't an ACT question. You compete with people taking the same test. The All-Exams board weights XP by exam difficulty so multi-exam studiers are ranked fairly.

Can I try it without an account?+

Yes. Continue as a guest to study right away. Create an account (email or Google) when you want to save your progress, add friends, and appear on public leaderboards.

What does Verified mean?+

You uploaded an official score report, certificate, or license and our team confirmed it. It's the only way to get the blue Verified badge and the big XP bonus that comes with it.

Your exam has a leaderboard.
