Memorai 🧠

This is super interesting, quick download cause I've been feeling vaguely more forgetful lately

Hi all, Peter, Jordan and Raza here, the makers of Memorai. Memorai was born out of a hackathon project solving a problem that we've had ourselves for ages! It's a problem a lot of us have: we read a lot but often feel like we don't remember anywhere near as much as we'd like! Spaced repetition software makes remembering anything you want easy. It asks you questions at increasing intervals until something is in your longterm memory. Instead of trying to cram for an exam in a week, you spend 5 minutes spread across 3 months and learn effortlessly. The most popular spaced-repetition tool is Anki. **Anki has two big flaws:** 😴 Making questions and flashcards to learn is really slow and tedious 🙇‍♂️ It relies on your willpower to sit down everyday and do 10-15 minutes of question answering **We're fixing this with a chrome extension that enables you to learn anything you read** 1. You highlight a passage you want to remember 2. Our NLP models automatically generate questions and their answers 3. We add these flashcards to your Anki deck We'd love to get your feedback and hope you find it as usefull as we do! Raza, Jordan and Peter

Congrats on the launch! I'm curious if there is an actual learning benefit to trying to come up with the question of what you just read on your own. Personally, I think there's a benefit to making the Q/A cards in your own words. I'm interested in trying Memoria and finding out. However, I use different SPR software than Anki. Do you guys plan on integrating with Evernote anytime soon?

Looks great, best of luck! 👍

I'm excited to see where Memorai goes from here. The product is great and a big step in the right direction. I'm excited to see what new features they add in the future. I wish for more card type options. It would be great if one could mark a passage and Memorai actually asks relevant questions which the text answers and the appropriate part of the text will be placed on the backside of the card. For example one marks this: Benjamin Franklin FRS FRSA FRSE (January 17, 1706 [O.S. January 6, 1706][Note 1] – April 17, 1790) was an American polymath who was active as a writer, scientist, inventor, statesman, diplomat, printer, publisher and political philosopher. And Memorai generates the two following cards: From when til when did Benjamin Franklin live? January 17, 1706 [O.S. January 6, 1706][Note 1] – April 17, 1790 Who was Benjamin Franklin? an American polymath who was active as a writer, scientist, inventor, statesman, diplomat, printer, publisher and political philosopher Such a function would be incredibly useful for me, especially if one could mark bigger passages of text. I can imagine coding something like this is quite a bit more difficult than what memorai accomplishes right now and wonder whether it is actually possible yet but it would be an absolute game-changer for me and I would definitely consider paying for such a service!
