Learning is social. Your tools should be too.
The most effective studying often happens in groups. You explain a concept to a friend and suddenly it clicks for you. Someone in your study circle spots the mistake you have been making for a week. The accountability of showing up for your group keeps you consistent when motivation dips.
SolversBoard has always been built around Meg - the AI tutor who coaches you through problems step by step. But we have also built something alongside that: Study Groups, a collaborative layer that lets students learn together inside the same platform, not just side by side.
What Study Groups give you
A shared space for your circle
Create a Study Group and invite your classmates, friends, or course mates with a simple invite code. Everyone who joins can see the group's shared activity - sessions members have worked through, problems people are struggling with, and milestones the group has hit together.
There is no setup friction. No new account, no separate app. If you are already on SolversBoard, you are three taps away from having a group running.
Link sessions to the group
When you complete a problem-solving session with Meg, you can share it to your Study Group. Other members can view your session - they see the problem, your working, Meg's coaching steps, and the outcome. This is particularly powerful for exam prep: one person tackles a tricky integration problem, shares the session, and the whole group can study how Meg broke it down.
It is not about copying answers. It is about learning from how others approach problems.
Collaborative accountability
Group members can see each other's streaks, recent activity, and session counts. There is a quiet social pressure that works in your favour: when you see that your study partner has done three sessions today, it is hard to close the app without doing one yourself. That accountability is real, and it compounds over time.
Who uses Study Groups
University students running weekly study circles for a module. Instead of meeting on Zoom and screen-sharing, they each work problems independently with Meg during the week, then pool their sessions in the group to review before exams.
A-Level and IB students doing peer revision. MCAT or LSAT candidates forming small accountability circles for the months-long grind of exam prep. Even siblings - two people in the same house, each on their own device, racing to complete sessions and ribbing each other when one falls behind.
Teachers who want to encourage peer learning outside class hours. You can create a Study Group for your class and watch students engage with material in the evenings and on weekends, without any top-down pressure.
How to create or join a group
- Open SolversBoard and navigate to Study Groups from your dashboard.
- Hit Create Group and give it a name - your class module, a nickname, whatever works.
- Share the invite code with whoever you want to include.
- Start working sessions. Share the ones worth talking about.
Joining an existing group is even faster: enter the invite code and you are in.
Why we built this
We built SolversBoard because learning should be active and guided - not passive consumption of lectures or answer keys. Study Groups extend that philosophy into the social dimension of learning.
The research on peer learning is consistent: students who explain concepts to others retain them better. Students who learn in groups show up more consistently. And students who feel part of a learning community are more likely to push through the hard parts.
Meg is your coach. Your Study Group is your team. Both matter.
Study Groups are available on all plans. Create yours today and bring your circle with you.
