In their own words
Adapt
Adapt creates personalised revision plans for GCSE, A Level and other supported qualification students. The planner uses exam dates and available study time, then adjusts as a student progresses. Its catalogue lists more than 1,200 courses across 20 qualifications and levels, although the notes and practice questions available depend on the course. Premium adds teacher-written notes, audio lessons, unlimited quizzes and past-paper questions, worked explanations for multiple-choice answers, and hints for written questions. Students can also control topic rescheduling, daily subject mixing and how many weeks ahead to plan. Adapt for Schools gives teachers aggregated, anonymous class confidence ratings. A six-character code from a student's school is used to connect to the school service. The free plan includes ads, limited revision content and practice questions, and a weekly limit on note views. Adapt runs on web, iOS and Android. Premium Monthly costs £24.99 per month; one-time options include £89.99 for access until August 2027, £149.99 until August 2028, and £249.99 for lifetime access.
