Spaced repetition, simplified
Remember what matters
when work gets demanding.
Turn frameworks, facts, and hard-won lessons into short daily reviews. Flashcards brings each idea back before you forget it, so it is available when you need it at work.
How it works
Three steps. Five minutes a day.
Step 1
Capture
Add cards manually or by CSV. Spend less time organizing, more time retaining.
Step 2
Review
Run short 5–15 min sessions. Answer cards and get instant feedback on what you know.
Step 3
Retain
Spaced repetition brings ideas back before you forget. Review less often, remember for longer.
Features
Everything you need. Nothing you don't.
Fast card capture
Add cards in seconds from text, CSV, or manual entry. Spend less time organizing, more time retaining.
Smart scheduling
Cards come back based on your answers, not a fixed loop. Review less often, remember for longer.
Weak-card mode
One click focuses your session on weak spots. Fix gaps directly instead of reviewing what you already know.
Tag-based study
Filter by topic — strategy, hiring, finance, product. Study for the work in front of you.
Progress stats
See correctness and recency while you review. Know what's improving and what still needs attention.
Safe card management
Edit, pause, delete, restore from trash, and bulk-manage. Your system stays clean without losing important notes.

The science
Why spaced repetition works
Memory decays quickly after first exposure. A recall attempt at the right moment slows that decay. Each successful recall strengthens memory and pushes the next review further out.
You review just before forgetting — not on a fixed calendar. That's why you retain more with less total time invested.
Most people don't use spaced repetition because setup is tedious. Flashcards removes that friction: quick capture, automatic scheduling, short sessions.
