What students ask about TrustStudy, including when not to use it. Can’t find your question? Email contact@auth.specimen.website.
What does TrustStudy do?
TrustStudy is a Chrome extension for practice quizzes. On any page, PDF or question set, you answer a question yourself, then press Alt+X to reveal the AI’s answer (shown like “1 : b”), with the reasoning when you want it.
Can I use TrustStudy during a graded test or exam?
No. Using AI to answer graded tests or exams is academic dishonesty, and schools treat it seriously. TrustStudy is meant for practice quizzes and self-testing. See how to use AI to study honestly.
How much does it cost?
You get 3 free credits to try it. Then: Basic $5/month (300 credits), Plus $10/month (1,000 credits) or Pro $20/month (2,000 credits). Every plan includes all AI models and input modes, and credits reset each month.
How many credits does an answer cost?
It depends on the mode and the model. A fast “Lite” answer with a small model costs about 2 credits; reasoning modes and bigger models cost more. The popup shows the cost before you ask.
Which AI models can I use?
Models from OpenAI (GPT), Anthropic (Claude), Google (Gemini) and DeepSeek. Pick one in the popup.
What are Lite, Eco and Max?
Lite answers directly with no reasoning: fastest and cheapest. Eco and Max add reasoning, which is what you want when you’re trying to understand a question.
How does it read the question?
Four ways: Select (highlight the question, then Alt+X), Text (reads the question text on the page), Screenshot (for images, diagrams and formulas), or Double-click on a question.
Can I change the shortcuts?
Yes. Alt+X gets the answer and Alt+C shows or hides it by default; you can change both in TrustStudy’s settings.
Do I need an account?
Yes, you sign in with your Google account so your credits and plan follow you.
Are AI answers always right?
No. AI models make mistakes, especially on tricky or ambiguous questions. If an answer contradicts your course material, trust the course and ask your teacher. That’s also why we recommend reading the reasoning, not just the letter.
Is TrustStudy affiliated with OpenAI, Anthropic or Google?
No. TrustStudy is an independent extension and isn’t affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek or any school or quiz platform.
