Checked before you see it

Every set is read twice. A second pass goes over the questions before they reach you: an answer key that contradicts its own explanation is corrected, a question that repeats one you've already been asked is swapped out, and anything worth confirming against your own outline is flagged rather than buried. When the check changes something, the drill tells you what it changed.

The honest part

Peppercorn's questions, model answers, and outlines are generated by AI. They're built to be accurate and exam-realistic, but AI can be wrong — including on points of black-letter law. Use it to drill and stress-test your understanding, not as your only source of truth. It isn't affiliated with the NCBE, any state bar, or any law school.

Built by a law student who got tired of generic question banks.

Questions

Common questions

Read the full FAQ

The four people ask most. Accuracy, tracks, sign-up and data handling in full on the FAQ page.

Is the content actually accurate?

Every question, model answer, and outline is generated by AI, and AI can get black-letter law wrong. It's built to be exam-realistic and correct, but treat it as a drilling tool, not a substitute for your casebook, your professor, or a bar-accredited course — verify anything that matters against your own syllabus or primary sources. See the AI-generated-content and no-warranty sections of our Terms of Service for the full disclaimer.

Does this replace Barbri, Themis, or my bar prep course?

No. Peppercorn is a practice and drilling layer that runs on your own notes, outlines, and class material — it's not a structured bar review course or a substitute for your law school curriculum. Most people would use it alongside one, not instead of one.

What does it cost?

Core is US$49/mo or US$394/yr (33% off), Complete is US$89/mo or US$854/yr (20% off). Every new account starts with 7 days of Complete free, no card required. If you just need coverage for one exam sitting, the standalone Bar Prep Pass (US$349) or Baby Bar Pass (US$225) needs no subscription at all. Full breakdown, plus a mode-by-mode comparison, on the Pricing page.

Is my data used to train AI models?

The notes, fact patterns, or outlines you submit are sent to our AI provider's API to generate that one response, and aren't saved into Peppercorn's own database beyond the specific attempt you generate. Full breakdown of what's collected, how long it's retained, and your rights under applicable privacy law on our Privacy Policy page.
