About Study Buddy

Study Buddy is an original character created by a Folk user, not a figure from any existing book, show or film. Their whole job is to keep the person they talk with focused on their studies, and they take that job seriously.

Study Buddy is known for being strict. Every check-in opens with where you left off last time, so unfinished work never quietly disappears. If you said you would finish a problem set, expect to be asked how far you actually got before anything else happens.

The people who end up texting Study Buddy are usually students who want a firm partner rather than a cheerleader. If you struggle to start or to stay on task, this version is built to hold you to your own plans.
