Vol. 01 · Origin Story

Built because someone
saw the problem.

Study With Lily exists to make your coursework and your boards prep one continuous path, not two separate, expensive commitments.

Vol. 02 · The Story

Harrison built this
for his wife’s cohort.

Harrison is a software engineer. His wife is a nursing student. He watched her and her classmates deal with expensive, outdated NCLEX® prep. Commercial packages were often out of reach, so students relied on scattered free resources or went without dedicated practice.

The clearest problem was this: she was studying the same material twice. Once for her class exams, then again for boards. Every tool she tried used what her professors were covering. They were generic question banks with no connection to her coursework.

So students started using ChatGPT and NotebookLM to build their own practice questions. But the output was unreliable. Wrong drug doses. Fabricated lab values. Questions that looked right but tested the wrong concept entirely. Harrison saw them studying from material they couldn’t trust. He knew he could build something better.

He started as a side project for his wife's study group. It became Study With Lily: a study partner that takes your uploaded syllabus and lecture notes, builds practice sessions around your actual content, and bridges the gap between your coursework and the NCLEX®. All for $15/month.

Study With Lily LLC is based in Arizona. Harrison builds and maintains every part of the platform. If you email harrison@studywithlily.com, he's the one who reads it.

Vol. 03 · What We Stand For

Three things
we don’t compromise on.

Privacy-first

Your data is never sold or shared for advertising. Delete your account and all study data at any time. Period.

Nursing-specific quality gates

Questions are not served raw. Lily runs nursing-specific quality gates for format, answer structure, rationale coverage, NCLEX® classification, duplicate scenarios, and unsafe clinical answer patterns before questions reach practice.

Affordable for students

Start free, then choose Full Access for $15/month. Monthly, term, and lifetime options are shown clearly on the pricing page.

Vol. 04 · The Methodology

We show our work.

Practice is organized around the 2026 NCSBN RN Test Plan or the 2026 NCSBN PN Test Plan for LPN and LVN students. Questions are not served raw. Lily runs nursing-specific quality gates for format, answer structure, rationale coverage, NCLEX® classification, duplicate scenarios, and unsafe clinical answer patterns before questions reach practice. Questions are original practice items and are not derived from actual NCLEX® exam content.

Four learning science principles drive every session: retrieval practice, spaced review, interleaving, and desirable difficulty. The same methods your best professors use. Lily applies them consistently, every time you open the app.

Vol. 05 · Test Plan Alignment

Organized around the
2026 NCLEX® test plan.

Study With Lily is aligned to the 2026 NCLEX®-RN Test Plan and the 2026 NCLEX®-PN Test Plan from NCSBN. Practice is organized around their Client Needs categories. Each format practices steps of the Clinical Judgment Measurement Model.

As the test plan evolves, Study With Lily evolves with it. You practice SBA, SATA, Matrix, Drop-Down Cloze, BowTie, and Unfolding Case Studies. All the core Next Gen formats that show up on your actual exam.
