For students who fell behind

See if your backlog fits the time left. Then follow the plan.

Missed classes from illness or tunnel vision on one subject? List what you missed and your exam dates. Catchly does the math and gives you a day-by-day plan that adjusts when you slip.

Free for one exam. No card needed.

If you're behind right now, this probably sounds familiar

Falling behind isn't a character flaw. A fever, a rough week, one scary test. The hard part is what comes after: a pile of material, a fixed date, and no clear place to start.

“I missed two weeks being sick and I don't even know where to start.”
Every subject has a gap, and staring at all of them at once makes it hard to pick up any single one.
“Every week there's another 8 hours of lectures, and the backlog just sits there.”
New lectures and readings keep landing while the old ones wait. Keeping up and catching up compete for the same hours.
“I tunnel on whichever subject has the first test, and the rest fall apart.”
Cramming the nearest exam feels responsible, but it quietly pushes every other course further behind.
“I have a week and like 12 chapters. Is that even possible?”
Without doing the math, you can't tell if the plan is realistic or if you're setting yourself up to fail.
“I make a plan, miss day 2, and then the whole thing is useless.”
Rebuilding a schedule by hand takes an evening you don't have, so most plans get abandoned by midweek.

From a pile of missed material to a plan for today

Catchly runs in your browser on laptop or phone. Setup takes about ten minutes, and you only do it once.

  1. 1

    List what you missed

    Type or paste your missed lectures, chapters and readings per course. Rough estimates are fine, like “Ch. 7–9, about 40 pages each”.

  2. 2

    Add your exam dates and free hours

    Enter each exam date and how many hours you can realistically study on each day, including the days you already have classes.

  3. 3

    See if it fits

    Catchly totals the backlog plus the new material still coming and tells you plainly: it fits, it's tight, or what to trim first.

  4. 4

    Follow today's list and check things off

    Each day shows exactly what to study and for how long. Miss a day or add new lectures, and the rest of the plan rebalances.

A plan that still holds on day 3

Built for the messy middle of a semester, not for perfect weeks.

Know if you can make it, before you start

Catchly compares total study time needed against the hours you have left and shows the gap or the spare time in plain numbers.

Miss a day without losing the plan

Unchecked tasks roll forward and the remaining days rebalance automatically, so you never have to rebuild the schedule yourself.

Catch up and keep up at the same time

Add this week's new lectures and readings, and Catchly fits them alongside the backlog instead of letting either pile grow.

Every subject stays alive, not just the next test

Time is split across all your courses by exam date and workload, so the first test doesn't swallow the others.

Open it and start, no deciding

Today's list names the exact lecture, pages and minutes. Less time choosing what to study, more time studying.

Honest options when it doesn't fit

If the math is short, Catchly suggests what to skim, what to prioritise and how many extra hours would close the gap.

Who Catchly is for

Made for you if

  • You missed 1–3 weeks from illness

    Flu, surgery, typhoid, a family emergency. You're back, the exams didn't move, and you need a realistic way back in.

  • You tunneled on one subject

    You gave everything to the first test and now the other courses are weeks behind.

  • You're in a heavy STEM first or second year

    Engineering, pre-med, CS: dense weekly lectures where a short gap snowballs fast.

  • You have one exam and too much to cover

    A week, twelve chapters, and you want to know if it's doable and how to split it.

Probably not for you if

  • You want an app to log your class timetable and homework. A general planner suits that better.
  • You need tutoring or explanations of the material. Catchly plans your time, it doesn't teach.

Why not just a spreadsheet or ChatGPT?

Both can give you a plan on day one. The trouble starts on day three.

Questions students ask

Can't I just ask ChatGPT for a study plan?

You can, and it's a fine starting point. The difference shows up later: Catchly tracks what you've finished, rebalances when you miss a day, and fits in new lectures each week. A chat plan stays fixed unless you rebuild it yourself.

What if I'm so far behind that it doesn't fit?

Catchly tells you straight away and shows by how many hours. It then suggests what to skim, what to prioritise for the exam, and how much extra daily time would close the gap, so you can decide with real numbers.

How do I enter my material? Does it connect to my university portal?

No portal connection. You type or paste your missed lectures, chapters and readings, with rough time or page estimates. Most students finish setup in about ten minutes.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. Catchly runs in the browser, so it works on laptops and phones without installing anything.

What happens to my data?

Catchly only stores what you enter: course names, topics, dates and progress. It's used to build your plan, isn't sold, and you can delete your account and data anytime.

Why $19 per semester and not monthly?

Catching up happens in bursts around exams. One payment per semester covers all your subjects for the whole term without a subscription to remember to cancel.

What does the free plan include?

One exam with the full planner: the fit check, daily plan, progress tracking and automatic rebalancing. Upgrade only if you need several subjects at once.

You can still make it. Let's see the plan.

List what you missed and your exam date. Catchly tells you if it fits and what to study tomorrow.
