The best AI and study tools for students in 2026, and what they cost
A good student setup covers a handful of jobs: an AI assistant, notes, documents, design and, for some courses, coding. You don't need every app, and you don't need full-price plans. Here's what each tool is good at, with the cheapest plan for it on Zelyx at today's price.
An AI study assistant: Gemini Plus
Gemini can explain a topic in simpler words, summarise a reading, quiz you before an exam, and check your writing. It also makes images with Google's Nano Banana tools.
The Gemini Plus plans here are redeem links that upgrade your own Google account. Their product pages also list 400 GB of storage for Drive, Photos and Gmail, and invites for up to 5 other accounts, which is handy for a study group.
Use it to learn, not to hand in its work as yours. Most schools have rules about AI.

Essays, spreadsheets and slides: Microsoft 365

A starter kit for a few dollars
If you only buy three things, make it Microsoft 365 Plus for a year, Notion Plus for 12 months and the 6-month Gemini Plus link. At today's prices that's about 2.07 USDT in total.
Add Canva Pro (0.90 USDT for 2 years) if you make a lot of presentations. You can pay by card or with USDT (how paying with USDT works).

Most of these plans are delivered automatically, right after payment. Canva Pro is delivered by hand; its page shows the usual time.
