It helps you:

  • Understand difficult topics faster

  • See familiar patterns in unfamiliar subjects

  • Make learning stick through real-world connections

Whether you’re studying physics, psychology, or philosophy, the Analogy prompt helps turn confusing material into something you can actually visualise and remember.
