Chrono brings together an AI tutor, knowledge studio, focus timer, smart planner, analytics, and group study rooms, replacing the scattered collection of apps most students rely on.
Why Chrono
Most students spend more energy managing their tools than using them. Notes in one place, calendar in another, AI in a third tab, and nothing talks to anything else. Chrono brings it all under one roof so you can focus on the work that matters.
Get started freeNotes scattered across four different apps
One knowledge workspace per subject, with AI built in
Switching tabs between your AI, your sources, and your notes
Upload any source and talk to it directly inside Chrono
No idea how much you actually studied or when you focus best
Visual session logs and a focus heatmap that shows your patterns
Deadlines and tasks spread across your phone, laptop, and memory
One planner that holds your schedule, tasks, and exam dates together
The Platform
Every feature is built around real student workflows, not a generic productivity template.
Ask anything, get streaming answers. Switch to Deep Research for 900+ word live-web reports, or use Planning Mode to build a structured revision plan from 7 guided questions.
Upload PDFs, paste YouTube links, add articles or audio. Chrono extracts structured knowledge from every source, then generates flashcards, quizzes, mind maps, timelines, and more on demand.
Set a session timer, pick ambient sounds, and block out distractions. Built-in Pomodoro intervals, animated study environments, and a YouTube player. Every session feeds into your analytics.
A complete weekly schedule manager and task tracker in one place. Priority levels, recurring events, deadline detection, and CSV export for your entire academic calendar.
A 7-day focus heatmap, exam countdown tracker, consistency charts, and an AI insight engine that reads your study patterns and surfaces actionable observations.
Real-time group study rooms with live messaging, polls, workshops, and file sharing. An AI model can participate directly in group conversations alongside your classmates.
Unlike generic chatbots, Velocity has three modes built around how students actually learn, quick Q&A, deep research, and structured planning. All with full conversation history.
Standard Chat
Streaming responses with persistent titled conversations. Auto-summarises every 10 messages to keep context sharp.
Deep Research Mode
Six-step research pipeline using real-time web search. Produces a structured 900+ word report on any subject.
Planning Mode
A guided 7-question dialogue that builds a concrete, actionable revision or project plan.
Create a workspace for any subject. Upload PDFs, YouTube lectures, articles, or audio files. Chrono extracts structured knowledge from every source, then generates any study material you need with one click.
Every focus session you run feeds into a growing picture of how you work. Track patterns, spot gaps, and let AI generate personalised observations, not generic advice.

Group study rooms with live messaging, polls, workshops, and file sharing. An AI assistant can join the conversation and answer questions alongside your classmates.
Publish the study materials you create in Canvas and earn from purchases. Discover quality content curated by other students across 12+ resource types.
The Story Behind Chrono
"I couldn't afford the tools that make studying easier, so I built my own."
Chrono started out of necessity. As a student without much money to spend on tools, I kept running into the same wall, the tools that actually make learning easier all cost money, and the free ones were either limited, sell personal data, or scattered across a dozen tabs. So I decided to build something myself.
What started as a personal fix grew into a full platform. It is still built and maintained by just me. No funding, no team, no investors telling me what to prioritise, just a student who wanted something better and thought others might too.
Our servers are based in Italy. Keeping costs low while keeping privacy real is something I genuinely care about, not a marketing line.
Privacy & Security
From our choice of hosting location to our authentication architecture, every technical decision reflects a commitment to student privacy.
Our servers are based in Italy and operate under EU law. Your data is stored and processed within a strict legal framework designed to protect your rights.
Chrono uses a modern, industry-grade login system that keeps your session token out of reach of browser scripts, significantly harder to hijack than conventional methods.
Export everything, tasks, schedules, study materials, at any time from your Settings. We have no lock-in and no hidden conditions.
Some AI features are powered by external providers. While your data may briefly pass through their systems, we contractually prohibit them from using your data to train their AI models.
