    Flashcard System & Spaced Repetition

    Our flashcard system uses scientifically-proven spaced repetition to optimize your memory retention.

    Understanding Spaced Repetition

    The Science

    Spaced repetition is based on the "forgetting curve" - we forget information at predictable rates. By reviewing just before you forget, you strengthen memory more efficiently.

    How It Works

    • New card: Review tomorrow
    • Remembered: Increase interval (2 days, 6 days, 14 days, etc.)
    • Forgot: Reset to 1 day
    • Algorithm adapts to your performance
