DoctorAI is your AI study companion for medicine. Ask by voice, by typing or with a scanned page, and get clear, structured answers you can highlight, annotate and come back to whenever you revise. Start free: sign in and your free trial starts right away. Use DoctorAI in 10 languages on your phone, tablet and the web. Built for students and professionals in medicine, nursing, pharmacy, dentistry and allied health, DoctorAI helps you understand difficult topics, compare related conditions and turn your own study materials into questions. HOW IT WORKS 1. Ask – type, speak or scan a page. 2. Understand – read an answer organised with key points, tables and sources. 3. Keep it – highlight what matters, add notes and find everything again later. ASK YOUR WAY Type a question, record it by voice when that is quicker, or scan a page from your lecture notes or textbook. Short questions, long questions and follow-ups all work in the same conversation. CLEAR, STRUCTURED ANSWERS Answers are organised to be easy to read at a glance: headings, key points, comparison tables and step-by-step explanations. Research sources are listed under answers so you can read further. SIMPLIFY OR GO DEEPER Too complex? Turn an answer into a simpler version. Need more? Add extra depth to the same topic and keep both versions in your conversation. SCAN TEXT FROM YOUR STUDY MATERIALS Point your camera at a page, or choose a photo or file. Review and edit the extracted text, preview tables, then use it in your question. HIGHLIGHTS AND NOTES Mark important sentences and tables, add your own notes, and open them all in one place: Notes & Highlights. STAY ORGANISED Search your chats, pin and rename conversations, star important messages, and share a chat link or a table as an image with classmates. CONTINUE ON YOUR COMPUTER Open DoctorAI Web in your browser and connect it with a QR code to keep studying on a bigger screen. PRIVATE AND BACKED UP Your chats are stored on your device.
