I didn't even complete the quiz, which is a user survey that tells me nothing about the product. Unclear what benefit this is supposed to offer over existing spaced-repetition systems like Anki. Sorry, presentation feels scammy and hyped.
There's already a huge collection of open-source Anki decks, and I don't need to be logged in anywhere to use them. I'm not affiliated with the Anki project, i'm just telling you why I'm not seeing the advantage here.
Maybe if you put more information up front it would be a better proposition. You need more than a pitch going 'this product is the best!!!' for me to start investing time and giving out information.
This is a cool UI -- haven't seen the ability to add Cloze / regular Q&A style integrated in this way.
A few things I've noticed:
* during my first review the "Skip" and "Reveal" buttons didn't seem to work for me. when I exited and re-entered, they worked but presented the same cards anyway. I'd expect skipping to mean that I'm skipping at least for this session, if not for this whole day.
* my leaderboard has two people, both with the same name. I imagine this is me? Unclear who the leaderboard would be comparing me to since it looks like it's subject-specific.
* nice that you don't have to sign up for an account and can just jump in right away.
More generally, the challenge I've found with using AI for Anki-style quizzing is the hallucination -- I'd hate to find out I invested time into learning & retaining something that turns out to be wrong. How do you think about this risk / do you do any interesting stuff on the back-end to mitigate?
