What are we working on?

Sound on. Hear a student think it through.

For medical students

The study partner you talk to.

KoiSwarm is an AI study partner for medical students. Its flagship, Live Talk, turns revision into a spoken conversation: you explain the material out loud, it questions you back on what you actually said, and it tells you what you knew — separately from how well you said it.

10 minutes of Live Talk a day, free. No card.

Live Talk

One conversation, five ways in.

After every call

Then it tells you what you knew.

The review is built from what was actually said — not from a fixed script, and not from how fluent you sounded.

0–100
A score for the call, topic by topic — or page by page for slides.
Missed
Right first time, right after a re-ask, missed or not reached. Topics not reached don't count.
Next
What is solid, what is shaky, what to do next. Missed points come back later as a review.

Why talking

Sound familiar?

Three findings, from other people's laboratories.

  1. Being made to retrieve an answer beats re-reading, and the gap widens with delay.

    Roediger & Karpicke, 2006
  2. Material produced aloud is remembered better than the same material read silently.

    MacLeod et al., 2010
  3. Preparing to teach, then actually teaching, beats preparing alone.

    Fiorella & Mayer, 2013

What Live Talk is not: an OSCE or clinical-skills simulator. It does not play a patient or score a physical examination. It is the conversation you would have with a classmate about the material you are learning this week.

Everything else, from your own slides.

Questions

What is KoiSwarm?

KoiSwarm is an AI study partner for medical students that you talk to out loud. Its flagship agent, Live Talk, turns today's revision into a spoken conversation: you explain the material, it questions you back on what you said, and it tells you what you knew separately from how well you said it.

What is Live Talk?

Live Talk is KoiSwarm's flagship agent. You speak; it listens, asks follow-up questions based on what you actually said, and grades content and delivery separately. Students use it two ways: clearing the day's due review by speaking instead of clicking, and explaining a topic back to it as though teaching a classmate.

I have no one to study with. Does that matter?

The benefit of a study partner comes from being made to produce an answer out loud and being questioned on it, not from the other person's knowledge. Live Talk supplies that part, always available and always on your own syllabus.

Is talking through material better than re-reading it?

Three separate findings support it. Being made to retrieve an answer beats re-reading, and the gap widens with delay (Roediger & Karpicke, 2006). Material produced aloud is remembered better than the same material read silently (MacLeod et al., 2010). Preparing to teach and then teaching beats preparing alone (Fiorella & Mayer, 2013).

Is Live Talk an OSCE or clinical-skills simulator?

No. It does not play a patient, score a physical examination, or rehearse a station circuit. It is a study partner for the material you are learning — the conversation you would have with a classmate, not with an examiner in a hospital corridor.

Is KoiSwarm free?

Yes. The free plan includes 300 credits a month, 10 minutes of Live Talk a day and every specialist agent, with no card required. Pro adds more credits, parallel jobs, larger files and two hours of Live Talk a day.

What languages does Live Talk speak?

Live Talk can hold the conversation in 29 languages, with accents and 30 voices to choose from, and you can change the voice by asking for it out loud. Your language is scored separately from the medical content and never lowers your medical score.

Your next exam is a conversation.
