One question from proving Balanced search trees
You've proven 3 of its 4 parts. This is the last one.
Balanced search treesBalanced search trees · Perform AVL rotations
You insert 15 into an AVL tree. Node 10 now has balance factor −2 and its right child 20 has +1. Which rotation restores balance?
Right.
20 leans left while 10 leans right: rotate right at 20, then left at 10.
Not quite. Nothing lost.
20 leans left while 10 leans right: rotate right at 20, then left at 10.
Proven · COMP2521 now 43%
You can now rebalance an AVL tree after an insertion
Yours come from your own course, whatever you study.

It reads your study. Not your life.
Here's exactly what it can see.
Reads
- The title of the window in front
- The text of that page, if it looks like study
Never reads
- Email and messages
- Banking, tax and health pages
- Password managers
- Private browser windows
- Your keystrokes
It asks before anything goes to its AI service. Pause any time. Delete everything with one button. Your uni never sees it. Never sold, no ads.
macOS will ask for Accessibility access. That is how Intent reads the window in front.
Read the full privacy policyQuestions
Does it record my screen?
No. It reads the title of the window in front. If that looks like study, it reads that page's text to work out the topic. Email, messages, banking, tax and health pages, password managers and private windows are never read.
What permissions does it need?
Accessibility is required, so it can see which window is in front and read its text. Screen Recording is optional and only for slides and videos. It reads the text from that one window and drops the image.
Is it safe to install?
Yes. Intent is notarised by Apple, which means Apple has checked it for malicious software. It runs quietly in the background and doesn't slow your Mac.
Does my uni see any of this?
No. Your uni never sees what you study, your checks or your progress.
Does it work for my uni?
It reads official course outlines for UNSW, USyd, UTS, UQ, Monash, ANU, Macquarie, QUT, Swinburne, Wollongong and RMIT. Anywhere else, it searches for your course, and you can drop in your course outline PDF. It builds the map from that outline, whatever the subject.
What else does it do?
It gives you a heads-up before deadlines, and asks before it adds or moves any date. Lock in is a focus mode you start yourself. Drift to something unrelated and it closes that tab. On Sunday evening it recaps what you proved that week.
Is this cheating?
No. It teaches and quizzes you on your own course. It never writes assessed work. Every check is for you. Nothing gets handed in.
Does it use AI?
Yes. Course maps, checks and Lock in use an AI service, and only after you say yes. Before any text leaves your Mac, card numbers, bank details and passwords are stripped.
What does it cost?
7 days free, then $5.99 a month. Cancel anytime.
Windows or iPhone?
Not yet. Intent is Mac only today, and needs macOS 14 or later.
Walk into the exam knowing what you know.
