Spaced repetition, in 3 ideas

  • i.

    Test yourself instead of rereading.

  • ii.

    Space out reviews at the right moment.

  • iii.

    Remember for much longer.

Memnos automates the right moment with FSRS, the open-source reference algorithm for spaced memorization: the method used by language learners, med students and researchers.

The method

Recall. Space. Repeat.

Two simple, robust principles: test yourself instead of rereading, and space out reviews to remember longer.

i.

Paste your notes

Start from a topic, your notes, a chapter. The AI suggests useful cards, never a dump. Or write them yourself: the AI is never required.

ii.

Approve or edit

You stay in control: every card can be edited or deleted. Nothing gets in without your approval.

iii.

Review at the right moment

FSRS schedules when to see each card again. You keep the rhythm, the rest takes care of itself.

"At sunrise, the Colossus of Memnon would start to sing. Throughout Antiquity, people made the journey to hear it greet the dawn."

Memnos carries this name for the ritual, not the legend: memory is built at the morning rendezvous. A few minutes of recall at the right moment beat a night of rereading, and your progress shows day after day.

Who it's for

Two profiles, one same need:
remember, don't reread.

Profile 01

You're new to active recall

You're learning a language, a course, a new trade. Serious flashcard apps always felt austere, technical, made for someone else.

  • You reread your notes on loop without knowing if anything sticks
  • You don't want to spend 2 hours configuring a tool
  • You want something simple, starting today

Memnos suggests useful cards from your very first topic. You approve, you review, you remember.

Profile 02

You're drowning in revision

Medicine, law, competitive exams, continuing education, professional certification. The volume to memorize keeps growing, and your time doesn't.

  • You no longer know where to start each morning
  • You feel like you keep reviewing the same notions
  • You want a serious method, not another gimmicky tool

FSRS schedules every review at the right moment. You see what needs reviewing today, nothing more, nothing less.

Your profile isn't quite there? Memnos works for anything you can memorize with cards: vocabulary, definitions, formulas, dates, procedures. If you can phrase it as question/answer, you can remember it.

Why Memnos

A serious engine.
A simple start.
Finally both.

Memnos takes memorization seriously without asking for an evening of setup. We anticipated the questions you're already asking.

  • 01

    "Another flashcard app to configure?"

    No: no plugins, no obscure settings, no manual to read. You paste your notes, approve your cards, review. Two minutes after arriving, your first session is running. And under the hood, it's FSRS, the reference algorithm for spaced repetition.

  • 02

    "The AI will hallucinate my cards."

    The AI suggests the number of cards you ask for, from 1 to 20, and every card can be edited or deleted before it enters your reviews. Nothing slips in without your approval: you remain the author. And if you'd rather write your cards yourself, the AI is entirely optional.

  • 03

    "My cards will be locked into your app."

    JSON export available anytime, without a subscription, without asking why. If Memnos shuts down or stops suiting you, your cards follow you elsewhere.

  • 04

    "Another gadget that will distract me."

    No mascot, no fake rewards, no compulsive notifications. Memnos shows your progress (what you master, your consistency) and stops there. If you're away, your streak pauses: it never punishes you. Motivation comes from what you remember.

Frequently asked questions

What we would answer anyway.

01.How much does it cost?

Memnos is free today, and a free plan will always exist: reviewing and exporting your cards will never be blocked. An optional Pro subscription will arrive later to cover AI and hosting, at a deliberately low price, announced clearly and in advance.

02.I already use a flashcard app. Why switch?

If your current tool works for you, keep it, sincerely. Memnos is for those who want the same scientific rigor (the FSRS algorithm) without spending hours on configuration: you start in two minutes, and your cards stay exportable at all times.

03.Is my data private?

Your cards remain yours. Hosted in Europe, JSON export available anytime. You can try guest mode without creating an account: nothing is sent to a server until you sign in.

04.What is FSRS, concretely?

Free Spaced Repetition Scheduler. An open-source algorithm that decides when to re-test you on each card, based on your previous answers. It's the method recommended today by the most demanding spaced repetition communities, not something we invented.

05.What does it run on?

The web, on PC and Mac, in any recent browser. A mobile version is planned later, once the web experience is mature.

06.Can I import my Anki decks?

Yes. Export your deck from Anki as a .apkg file, then drop it into Memnos (New card → Import). It's free up to 500 imported cards, and just needs a free account.
