# Scope documentation

> Learn how to install and use every Scope app: the Scope extension for Chrome, Lectra for iPad, and Polya.

Scope builds tools that make you more capable and independent. They handle everything around learning, like finding the reading, keeping your notes in order, and checking your understanding, so you can do the learning yourself.

All Scope apps are free. They work alongside the Canvas or Brightspace course your school already uses. New here? Start with [What is Scope?](/get-started/overview) or go straight to the [quickstart](/get-started/quickstart).
