Our plans
IQ Abroad was built by an enthusiast as an open educational platform. We believe exchange prep should be accessible to everyone.
Our goal is to secure grants or sponsorships so we can provide AI review 100% free for everyone. Until then, Premium simply covers direct API and server costs.
What Premium is for today
Premium unlocks only features with real running costs for the service, for example AI essay review with detailed feedback (powered by paid AI tokens).
Premium payments help cover servers, AI usage, and project development so free features can stay available to everyone.
