one connection, a lot of ways to study
Fiveable gives your AI app focused course content and useful study actions, not just another pile of search results.
understand a topic
Get an explanation grounded in Fiveable study guides, then ask follow-up questions until it clicks.
practice out loud
Ask for Fiveable-created multiple-choice questions and answer one at a time. Try it anonymously, then sign in to save your results.
improve an frq
Practice with a Fiveable FRQ, or upload a prompt and response you already have. Get point-by-point feedback from Fiveable's scoring framework.
organize your notes
Turn pasted or photographed notes into a clear study guide, check what may be missing, and keep the original notes inside your AI conversation.
plan what's next
Build a study plan from your saved quiz and FRQ progress instead of starting from scratch in every new conversation or connected app.
research with sources
Pull only the most relevant Fiveable passages for a question and keep the guide title, link, and section attached to the answer.
estimate your ap score
Use Fiveable's subject-specific score calculators to turn raw section scores into an estimated AP score from 1 to 5.
you don't need to learn special commands
Connect Fiveable once, then ask ChatGPT, Claude, or your other AI app the way you already ask for study help. It chooses the right Fiveable tools behind the scenes.
“explain photosynthesis like I missed class, then check me”
“compare mitosis and meiosis using a Fiveable source”
“quiz me on Unit 5 of APUSH, one question at a time”
“give me five AP Psych questions, then explain the topics I miss”
“I uploaded photos of an FRQ prompt and my response. Check the transcription, then grade it”
“show me which FRQ point I missed and help me revise just that part”
“turn these notes into a study guide and tell me what I'm missing”
“organize these notebook photos and check the coverage against AP Bio Unit 6”
“make me a 14-day study plan based on my saved quiz and FRQ progress”
“I have 45 minutes tonight. What should I study next for AP World?”
“find the most relevant Fiveable passages about monetary policy and cite each guide”
“what raw section scores would I need for a 4 in AP Psych?”
connect once, then just start studying
Fiveable connects through MCP, a standard that lets supported AI apps use trusted tools and sources with your permission.
Remote MCP endpoint
https://fiveable.me/api/mcp
Use this when your AI app asks for a server URL, endpoint, or remote MCP connector.
add fiveable
Add the Fiveable connector in your supported AI app. There is nothing to download.
start with a preview
Pull two full study resources without an account. When those are used, sign in for five more plus one FRQ score for either a Fiveable prompt or one you upload.
ask for study help
Ask a normal question or attach photos. Your AI app finds the right Fiveable content and confirms any transcription before sending an FRQ for feedback.
The anonymous preview includes 2 complete resources. A free account adds 5 more full-content pulls and 1 FRQ score. Existing access applies to covered subjects and features; public discovery stays available.
use fiveable in chatgpt, claude, grok, cursor, or vs code
Every app labels MCP connections a little differently. In all five, you add the same secure Fiveable endpoint once, approve the permissions you want, and then ask for AP study help in chat.

Here's the short version of what Fiveable does and does not do inside an AI app.
MCP stands for Model Context Protocol. It is a standard that lets an AI app securely use tools and trusted sources, like Fiveable's AP study content.
Use it in ChatGPT Developer mode, Claude custom connectors, Grok, Cursor, VS Code, or another client that supports remote Streamable HTTP MCP servers and OAuth. Setup varies by app, so use the client-specific directions and official links above.
Not to explore. You can search topics, use calculators, and pull two complete study resources anonymously. Sign in for five more full pulls, one FRQ score, saved answers, and progress.
You approve specific permissions. The app receives only the information needed for the Fiveable action you asked it to perform, not your Fiveable password.
When you sign in and approve progress access, answers and FRQ attempts are saved to your Fiveable account. A connected app can use that progress summary later. Your raw notes stay in the AI app unless you intentionally submit practice work.
Yes. Attach photos or paste the prompt and your response. Your AI app first transcribes them and asks you to confirm the text, and graphs or drawings can stay attached for visual review. Fiveable then creates a practice scoring framework, returns point-by-point feedback, and saves the attempt. It is a study estimate, not an official score.
Discovery remains open. Full content and FRQ scoring use the available MCP previews unless your account has access to that subject and feature. Subject-specific access, eligible beta participation, and classroom sponsorship apply only to the resources they cover.
No. Fiveable does not add per-call charges or start checkout from MCP. Preview use is counted separately from the website, and existing access applies to covered resources.
Yes. Disconnect the app from your Fiveable account's Connected study apps section to remove its access immediately.
