What is PreceptorMD? A study companion built on your own lecture slides

Final-year revision in Ghana usually means a folder of lecture decks, a few past questions and not enough hours. General AI chatbots can explain almost anything, but they don't know what your lecturers actually taught, and they rarely show where an answer came from.

PreceptorMD starts from the other end. You add the slides you were given, and everything it produces is built from them and points back to them.

What you can do with it

• Ask anything. Type a question and get a short answer. Every fact quotes the slide it came from, and you can tap the source to see that slide.
• Practise exam questions. Exam-style clinical vignettes written from your decks, each checked to have one defensible answer, with an explanation for every option. Timed mock exams mix questions across your modules.
• Run an OSCE station. A simulated patient with a hidden case file, a door note and a clock. At the end you get a scorecard against the examiner's checklist. Read more in OSCE practice without a partner.
• Review flashcards. Spaced repetition that works offline on the ward and exports to Anki. See Spaced repetition for finals.
• Teach it back. Explain a topic out loud, and PreceptorMD checks each thing you say against your slides.
• Fix your weak spots. A weakness map by topic, missed questions turned into flashcards, and a study plan that goes after your weakest topics first.
• Explore anatomy. A 3D atlas of 2,828 bones, muscles, organs and nerves to rotate, peel back and quiz yourself on.

How it stays honest

Every fact has to quote a slide, in 25 words or fewer, and the quote is checked against that slide before you see it. When your slides don't cover a question, PreceptorMD says "Not found in your materials" instead of guessing.

National guidelines come first. Where a shared guideline deck such as the Ghana Standard Treatment Guidelines covers dosing or management, it outranks lecture slides, and any disagreement between the two is flagged. The details are in How PreceptorMD checks its answers.

What it is not

PreceptorMD is a study tool. It is not for clinical decisions, and no patient information goes into it. OSCE patients are fictional. It works from the slides your lecturers teach and sends you back to them; it does not replace lectures, ward rounds or your supervisors.

Adding your slides

Upload PDF or PowerPoint (PPTX) files, one at a time or up to 20 at once, straight from your phone. The files are read on your device; only the text of each slide, and a small image for slides that are mostly pictures, is sent for processing. If a classmate has already uploaded the same slides, they cost nothing to process again.

Getting access

PreceptorMD is invite-only. Your school or class coordinator hands out invite codes. If your class doesn't have one yet, email hello@preceptormd.app for access and pricing.
