For universities and medical schools
Prognia gives every student study that comes back before it fades, their exam as a goal by name, notes that turn into flashcards and a space for every cohort. Free for every student to start, in five languages, with data stored in the EU.

Optional. We’ll use it to fill in this page and your booking.
They cram for the block exam, pass, and lose much of it before the progress test asks again. To fill the gap they collect apps nobody chose for them: shared decks of unknown origin, question banks written for another country’s exam, and chatbots that cite nothing.
Illustration: memory without review, and with reviews after 1, 6 and 16 days, the intervals Ward gives a new card that you keep knowing.
Remembering is a schedule, not a talent.
Prognia is four connected apps for medical students and doctors on one account: Ward for study, Suture for notes, Osler for answers with sources and Prognia for cohorts, teaching and calls. It works in any modern browser and in English, Dutch, German, French and Spanish.
Of ten study techniques reviewed by learning scientists, two earned the highest rating: testing yourself and spreading practice over time.¹ In a randomised trial with paediatric and emergency medicine residents, those who were tested on a topic scored 39% on a final test about six months later, against 26% for those who studied the same material again.² A review of 23 studies found that spaced digital education improves health professionals’ knowledge.³ Ward is built on both habits.

When this card comes back
Students choose their country and Ward knows the exam: the Voortgangstoets, the Physikum and Staatsexamen, the EDN and ECOS, the USMLE, the MCCQE and more. In the week before it, Exam Rescue gathers what matters, and the study coach in Ward Max plans each day up to the date. Ward does not know every exam by name yet. Elsewhere, students start from a European or worldwide baseline and import their own Anki decks for free.

Teachers build decks and quizzes in Ward with 22 card and question types, from cloze and image labels to clinical vignettes, and share them in the cohort’s space as an assignment. Students follow a playlist and its updates reach them, or remix their own copy while yours stays as it was. Progress shows only as a group total, and only once three students have finished.
Start with one block? Book a 20-minute call.
When a student adds your university, the spaces for their year and their courses open by themselves. Each space is a group chat with voice and video calls and a classroom: announcements people confirm, questions with an accepted answer and homework with a deadline. Lectures and exams sit in Rota, a calendar students can subscribe to in Apple, Google or Outlook.
Your school is one of 922 medical schools and 2,288 universities in 152 countries in our directory.
What your privacy officer and your student representatives will ask, answered plainly.
Read our privacy policyWe show no advertising, never sell data and run no third-party analytics or tracking.
Accounts, files and our database are stored in Frankfurt. AI requests are processed by the model providers named in our privacy policy.
Teachers see group totals, never who hasn’t finished.
Each student signs in with their own account and can delete it at any time.
Notes and cases stay anonymous; nothing that identifies a patient belongs in Prognia.
In English, by video. Tell us about your curriculum, your exams and the cohort you would start with. You leave knowing whether Prognia fits that cohort and what a first block would look like.
We set up the cohort’s space with you. Your teachers share their decks there, and students join with free accounts. The pilot costs nothing.
After the block, or about three months, we look at what students used and decide on the next step together.
Students can start free today, on their own.
Not today. Prognia works next to Canvas, Brightspace, Moodle or Blackboard: link a Ward deck or a cohort space from your course page.
Not today. Students sign in with their own Prognia account, by email, Apple or Google.
No. The Prognia network is always free, and Ward, Suture and Osler each have a free plan. Pro and Max add more room and the AI study coach; for an individual, Pro starts at $4.99 a month per app. A first pilot with one cohort or block is free; options for a whole cohort after that are something we discuss in the call.

Yes. Anyone can build decks and quizzes in Ward with 22 card and question types, import Anki decks for free, and share them in a space.
The methods are well studied: retrieval practice and spaced repetition have strong evidence, including in medical education (sources above). Prognia itself has not been evaluated in a published study yet.
In the EU: Prognia’s database, sign-in and file storage run in Frankfurt, Germany. AI features send the text of a request to the AI model providers listed in our privacy policy to generate an answer.
The apps work in English, Dutch, German, French and Spanish. Much medical source material, such as international guidelines, is in English, and decks are in the language their author wrote them in.
Our meetings are held in English. Prognia itself works in English, Dutch, German, French and Spanish.
