Resources are the files, links, and documents that make up your course materials. ScholarStack automatically processes them so they can be searched by AI tutors.

• Documents — PDF, Word (.docx), PowerPoint (.pptx), Excel (.xlsx)
• Text files — plain text, markdown
• Images — PNG, JPG, HEIC
• Video and audio — MP4, MP3, and other common formats
• Links — paste any URL to add a web resource

Uploading Resources

1. Go to Dashboard → Resources and click Upload.
2. Drag and drop files or click to browse. Multiple files can be uploaded at once.
3. ScholarStack processes files automatically — converting PDFs to searchable text, extracting images, and generating summaries and keywords.
