Why Memnos exists

Memnos came out of a simple frustration: you spend hours re-reading your notes, and you forget anyway. There is a better way to learn — it has been proven for a long time, but the tools for applying it are either too complex or too shallow.

The problem

Re-reading and highlighting feel like knowing, but they stick poorly. Memory fades fast when nothing calls on it at the right moment. The result: you revise a lot, retain little, and start over.

What we believe

Two principles change everything: testing yourself rather than re-reading, and spacing your reviews for the moment they count. That is spaced repetition, today powered by the open-source FSRS algorithm.

The catch: existing tools often demand hours of configuration, or stay simple card piles with no real scheduling. We wanted the rigour, without the friction.

What Memnos is

A web app that turns your notes into cards, makes you answer before showing the solution, and schedules every reminder for you — with nothing to configure. You can start without an account and generate your cards from a piece of text.

Our commitments

  • A free plan, forever: reviewing and exporting your cards will never be locked.
  • Your cards stay yours: export at any time, hosting in Europe, no reselling of your data.
  • No traps: no dark patterns, no mandatory account to try it, and a future Pro plan announced clearly and in advance.
  • Respect for your privacy: we never send the content of your cards off for analysis (see the privacy policy).

Who is behind it

Memnos is an independent French project, built by a small team, currently in beta. No fundraising, no growth-at-all-costs target: just the intent to build an honest, durable memorisation tool.
