What is HamCoach AI?
HamCoach AI is an adaptive study platform for the U.S. amateur radio license exams (Technician, General, and Amateur Extra). It uses real NCVEC question pools and an AI tutor to help you understand the material — not just memorize answers.
Which exams does HamCoach cover?
All three U.S. amateur radio license classes: Technician, General, and Amateur Extra. HamCoach automatically selects the correct question pool based on the current NCVEC cycle.
What does "pool-aware" mean?
The NCVEC question pools rotate on a multi-year cycle. HamCoach tracks which pool is current for your exam date and keeps your study material aligned. If pools change, you'll be notified.
Is HamCoach affiliated with the FCC or ARRL?
No. HamCoach AI is an independent study tool. We are not affiliated with the FCC, NCVEC, ARRL, or any Volunteer Examiner Coordinator.
How does the AI tutor work?
When you ask for an explanation, HamCoach sends the question context to an AI model that generates a plain-language explanation grounded in the specific exam question. AI responses are educational support and may occasionally be inaccurate — always verify regulatory details against official sources.
Is my data safe?
Yes. We use Clerk for authentication, Stripe for payments (we never see your card number), and industry-standard practices for data handling. You can export or delete your data at any time from Settings. See our Privacy Policy and Subprocessors page for details.
Can I study on my phone?
Yes. HamCoach has a mobile app for iOS and Android, and your progress syncs across devices.
