The problem

ARE prep gets fragmented fast

01

Existing tools cost hundreds a month

Leading question banks run $150–$250 per month. For a multi-month study plan, that adds up faster than the exam fee itself.

02

Everything is English-only

Technical code language is hard enough in your first language. Most platforms offer zero support for candidates who study in Chinese or Spanish.

03

Question banks test you. They don't teach you.

A score tells you how many you got right — not which concepts you don't understand. Repeat the same set enough times and you start remembering the answer instead of the reasoning behind it.

What you get

Everything a real study plan needs

01

Structured courses first

Material is organized into divisions, domains, topics, and defined knowledge points — so you always know what you're learning and why it matters for the exam.

02

Course-grounded question generation

New questions are built from knowledge points already defined in the course, not a blank prompt to an AI model. The scenario changes — the concept behind it doesn't come from nowhere.

03

Fixed + dynamic practice

Start with fixed sets for a consistent baseline after each lesson, then generate fresh scenarios to practice recognizing the same concept from new angles.

04

Multilingual explanations

Full English, Chinese, and Spanish breakdowns for every question — written for the exact scenario you saw, not a generic answer key.

Why course-grounded

Not random AI questions.
Course-grounded practice.

A general AI model can generate a question from a broad instruction like "write an ARE PPD question about building systems." KPATH works from a narrower path instead: division → domain → course topic → defined knowledge point → question objective → practice scenario. The question can change. The knowledge behind it doesn't come from nowhere.

✓Grounded in defined knowledge points, not a blank prompt
✓Fresh scenarios every session
✓Explanations written for your exact question

What candidates say

Early feedback

"The multilingual explanations actually helped — I finally understood why an answer was wrong, not just that it was."

Max R. — ARE Candidate, PPD

"I stopped seeing the same three scenarios over and over. Every session actually felt new."

Jen L. — ARE Candidate, PDD

"Cheaper than one month of the big-name banks, and I'm using it every day instead of once a week."

David K. — ARE Candidate, PA

FAQ

Questions, answered

You start with 20 credits, no card required. Check in daily to earn more, up to a 50-credit cap — plenty to try the app for real before deciding to upgrade.
Yes. All plans are month-to-month with no contract. Cancel from your account settings at any time and keep access through the end of your billing period.
Yes — unused credits carry over month to month, up to your plan's cap. Each billing cycle just tops you back up to your plan's base amount if you've dropped below it; anything you're already sitting on stays untouched.
Most question banks pull from a fixed, pre-written set. KPATH combines fixed practice sets for a consistent baseline with course-grounded questions generated from defined knowledge points — not a blank AI prompt — plus full multilingual explanations (EN / 中 / ES), so content stays varied, current, and tied to what you're actually learning.
Yes — the app works in any modern mobile browser, no download required.
