How it works

  1. Create

    Type a card, add a photo, or just talk: AI turns your voice memo into card suggestions, you decide.

  2. Study

    Flip, then rate yourself: Known moves a card up a box, Again sends it back to box 1.

  3. Remember

    Each box waits longer: 1, 3, 7, 14, then 30 days. You only review what you are about to forget.
