Summit puts your grades, your homework, and your studying in one place — and it's honest about all three. See exactly where every class stands. Add an assignment and watch your grade move before you turn it in. Summit does the GPA math for you, tracks your trends over the term, and never guesses or inflates a number. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Track grades and GPA — enter your classes and assignments and see your real standing, updated instantly. - Stay on top of what's due — a homework list and a home-screen widget that shows what's coming, so nothing slips. - Study with flashcards and quizzes — make a deck by hand, paste your notes, or snap a photo and let Summit build one. - Remember more with spaced review — cards you know come back less often, ones you miss come back sooner, so a few minutes hits exactly what you're about to forget. - Focus without the noise — a built-in study timer to help you actually sit down and work. - Get a nudge, not a nag — friendly reminders to update your grades and add assignments so you don't fall behind. BUILT TO BE HONEST Summit never fakes a grade, never invents progress, and never uses guilt to get you to open it. A quiz score you didn't earn doesn't help you, so we don't hand them out. Reminders are calm and skippable. Your grades are yours. SUMMIT PREMIUM Everything above is free. Premium unlocks: - Unlimited AI — flashcards and quizzes with no monthly cap. - Target Grade — see exactly what you need on the final to hit your goal. - AI study planner — a day-by-day plan built from your real grades and what's due. - Custom icons & colors — five home-screen icons and six accent colors to make it yours.

Verdict

The call
