01 / THE DECISION

Before you unsubscribe.

Consider cancelling if…

Your main use is understanding uploaded notes and receiving tutoring, and text-based practice meets your needs.

Keep the app when…

Keep Knowt Ultra if its voice tutor, podcast generation or included exam-preparation resources are important. The prompt needs your own source materials.

Try the prompt on a real task first. A free plan may be enough. Confirm your renewal date and save anything you need before changing your plan.

Make it your own

Tutor me on [topic] for [exam or goal] using the attached materials as the source of truth. My current level is [level] and I have [time] per day until [date].

Create a brief topic map with source page or section references. Then ask one diagnostic question at a time and wait for my answer. Give feedback, explain the reasoning using the source, and revisit misconceptions with a different example. Clearly distinguish extra context from material in the source.

After ten questions, give me a short review plan based on my errors and a copyable table of question-and-answer flashcards. Do not claim you will remind me or remember progress outside this conversation. End with a compact progress log I can paste into the next session.

MATERIALS: [attach]

What the estimate covers.

First tutoring response only; later turns cost extra. Assumes 4,000 input tokens and 800–1,500 output tokens. Follow-up turns, reasoning and tools can increase the cost.

Monthly savings use 20 independent first responses. Chat app subscription fees are separate from API token charges.
