Gyanis FAQ: the AI study app for WAEC, JAMB & NECO
What is Gyanis?
Gyanis is the study OS for students preparing for WAEC, NECO, JAMB UTME & BECE. Four pillars sit on one screen: Flow for daily study, Aura for coach bookings, Vibe for Ask-an-Expert tutoring, and OneByZero for the student marketplace. One Gyanis Credits (GC) balance runs all four.
Can I use Gyanis for WAEC, NECO, JAMB, IGCSE preparation?
Yes. Every drill, mindmap, and Gameplan entry in Flow is tagged to WAEC, NECO, JAMB, IGCSE by class, subject, unit, and topic. Complete WAEC and NECO preparation for SS 1 to SS 3 aligned with the WAEC syllabus, plus JAMB UTME practice by subject and BECE support for JSS 3.
Is Gyanis a replacement for school or coaching?
No. Gyanis is a study workspace. Teachers still teach. Coaches still coach. Flow handles the daily practice, the mindmap of a chapter, and the next-question decision; a human handles the conversation that matters.
What is Gyanis Flow?
Flow is the study workspace. Ten tools on one screen: AI Chat for doubts, Drills for WAEC, NECO, JAMB UTME & BECE MCQs tagged to your syllabus, Arena mock exams, Express grading, Lab, Virtual Classroom, MindMaps for a chapter tree in under ten seconds, Gameplan for the Mission, Battle, Conquered, Replay label on every topic, MoodBoard for saved formulas, and Pulse for time on task and accuracy by topic. Flow is free to start with a 7-day trial; paid plans carry the full toolkit.
What is Gyanis Aura?
Aura is a directory of credential-verified coaches. Sessions run on video; session length and GC price are set by each coach and quoted before you confirm. The student keeps a written takeaway from every session. Parental visibility is on for minor accounts.
What is Gyanis Vibe?
Vibe is the Ask-an-Expert tutoring marketplace, plus Lingo for language learning. The student sets the price when they raise their hand, and it is per session, never per minute. Funds sit in Gyanis Credits until the session completes, then release to the expert. If no expert accepts, the student gets the full amount back. Voice tutoring, audio lessons, and pods are coming in 2026. Available in English.
How does the AI decide what to show me next?
A rule engine, not a black box. Two correct answers in a row move difficulty up. One slip at the new level moves it back down. Gameplan relabels a topic Mission, Battle, Conquered, or Replay from the last three days of accuracy and the last five days of speed. Coach-copilot ranks the next best action using a lightweight rule engine over anonymised drill events.
Which exams does Gyanis cover?
Senior secondary certificates (WASSCE from WAEC, NECO SSCE), tertiary entrance (JAMB UTME and Post-UTME screening), the junior secondary BECE and the Primary 6 Common Entrance, and the international curricula (Cambridge IGCSE, A Level, IB) offered in Nigerian private schools. Every question is tagged by syllabus, class, subject, unit, and topic, so filters work at the topic level, not the chapter level.
Is Gyanis free to use?
Gyanis is free to start, and you pay only for the pillars you use. Flow opens with a 7-day trial; after that, paid plans carry the full toolkit. Vibe is priced per session and set by the student, with funds held in Gyanis Credits and refunded in full if no expert accepts. Aura is priced per session, quoted before you confirm. No card required to start.
How much does a Gyanis Credit cost?
You load GC once and spend across Flow, Aura, Vibe, and OneByZero. Pricing is shown in the wallet before purchase, in local currency. School and institution packs have volume pricing. Contact support for a quote.
How do refunds work?
No-show refund is full. Cancel more than 24 hours before an Aura or Vibe session and you get a full refund minus a 5% platform fee. Cancel inside 24 hours and half the credits come back. OneByZero orders carry a 48-hour claim window, and seller earnings settle to the GC wallet only after delivery is confirmed.
Is Gyanis available on mobile?
Yes, as a web app that runs on any modern mobile browser. Dedicated iOS and Android apps are in build, with offline support for mindmaps and drill sets.
Can I use Gyanis offline?
On paid plans, you can download mindmaps and drill sets for offline use. Live features (Chat, Aura, Vibe expert sessions) need the internet.
How secure is my data on Gyanis?
Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 (NDPA) compliant. Study data builds your personal mastery map and nothing else. Never sold. Never used to train a public model. Encryption is TLS in transit and AES at rest. Aura session notes are confidential and scoped to the student and coach.
Can parents track study progress?
Yes. Pulse gives the parent the same page the student sees: time on task by day, accuracy by topic, and predicted score against the target. No quizzing at the dinner table needed.
Is Gyanis safe for children?
Minor accounts require guardian consent before Aura, Vibe, or OneByZero is switched on. Content filters are on by default and can be tightened at the class level. Aura coaches are credential-verified. Full detail is in the AI Safety Guidelines.
How does Aura help with exam stress?
Aura connects a student to a named credential-verified coach for a video session; session length and GC price are set by each coach. The student chooses the coach by specialisation, language, and availability. The session ends with a written takeaway and, if the student wants, a booking for the next one. Specialised support covers WAEC, NECO, JAMB UTME & BECE stress, burnout, and academic anxiety.
Are the coaches on Aura qualified?
Nigeria has no statutory register for counsellors, so Gyanis does not claim one. Every Aura Coach serving Nigeria is credential-verified by Gyanis: identity, a qualification in counselling or psychology, and experience with students are checked before the profile goes live. Every coach has at least three years of experience with students, and every profile lists specialisation and language so you can pick by fit, not by queue.
How do teachers use Gyanis?
A teacher builds a question paper in minutes, tagged by class, unit, and topic, and exports it as a print-ready PDF. Pulse shows accuracy and weak topics by class and by student, so the teacher knows who needs the extra five minutes. Digital drills update Pulse automatically; a printed paper feeds it only when the results are recorded in Gyanis.
Is there a teacher dashboard?
Yes. The teacher view shows per-student accuracy, time on task, and Gameplan labels for the cohort. Every data point a teacher sees is the same data point the parent and the student see. No parallel stories.
How do schools roll out Gyanis?
Class-level rollouts, with role-based access for teachers, students, and parents. Onboarding runs as a 120-minute workshop in the classroom, followed by a three-month pilot with cohort dashboards and export-ready reports. Guardian consent is captured at enrolment.
Are school workshops free?
Yes. The 120-minute AI literacy workshop for Grades 6 to 12 is free. Teachers walk out with a lesson plan and the deck. Book at gyanis.ai/school-workshop.
Can I prepare for WAEC, NECO and JAMB at the same time on Gyanis?
Yes. An SS 3 student sits WAEC, NECO and JAMB UTME in the same April to July window, and Flow treats them as one syllabus with three papers. Drills are tagged by exam, subject and topic, Arena runs timed mock exams, and Gameplan labels every topic Mission, Battle, Conquered, or Replay so the weakest one is always today's first job.
Does Gyanis have JAMB past questions and CBT practice?
Gyanis is not a past-question PDF library. Drills are tagged to the JAMB syllabus and adapt to your score, and Arena mock exams run on screen under time, the way the UTME does at a CBT centre. Use past questions for the paper format; use Gyanis to find and fix the topics you keep missing on them.
Does Gyanis cover Junior WAEC (BECE) and Common Entrance, or only senior secondary?
Both. Drills and mindmaps are tagged by class from Primary 6 through JSS 3 to SS 3, so a JSS 3 student preparing for the BECE and a Primary 6 pupil preparing for Common Entrance each see their own syllabus, not a senior paper.
How is Vibe different from a lesson teacher?
A lesson teacher is paid by the term. Vibe is paid by the session, and the student sets the price when raising a hand. Credits stay in the wallet until the session ends; if no expert accepts, the full amount comes back. Book one session for one topic in Mathematics or English, or ten for a whole paper.
Are Aura coaches registered in Nigeria, and is this counselling?
Nigeria has no statutory register for counsellors, so Gyanis does not claim one. Every Aura Coach serving Nigeria is credential-verified by Gyanis: identity, a qualification in counselling or psychology, and experience with students are checked before the profile goes live. Aura is coaching for exam pressure and burnout, not medical treatment, and not an emergency service; in an emergency call 112. Sessions run on video and end with a written takeaway.
Does Gyanis work on a phone with limited data, and can I pay in naira?
Gyanis is a web app that runs in any modern mobile browser, and on paid plans you can download mindmaps and drill sets for offline use, so a power cut does not end the session. Gyanis Credits are priced in naira in the wallet, and the price is shown before you confirm.
Can a Nigerian secondary school host the free AI workshop?
Yes. The 120-minute AI literacy workshop is free for schools teaching JSS 1 to SS 3. Examples follow the WAEC and NECO syllabus when the school shares its classes and subjects at booking, and teachers leave with the deck and a lesson plan. Book at gyanis.ai/school-workshop.
