Hi HN,

Meet Zorbi - a spaced-repetition tool built for exam study.

Zorbi helps you create flashcards straight from PDFs and Websites or from our Notion integration.

Creating flashcards with Zorbi is crazy fast and crazy easy.

Zorbi is a web-app so you'll be able to study from any device (but we have an Android app & an iOS app coming soon!)

Our mission is to build a full-featured exam study tool that people ACTUALLY want to use

(Combining the power of Anki with the simplicity and flexibility of Notion)

Let me know if you have any questions!

Congrats! I hope more people gets into learning by space repetition.

I do not agree with the way you are marketing yourself (critisizing Anki) you should be good on your own terms. From you website. « ZORBI IS THE TOOL THAT ANKI SHOULD HAVE BEEN Anki was built in 2006 for lifelong learning, and it was good for a while.

But let's get real. Anki is a clunky tool that people tolerate. You have to worry about optimizing settings, downloading addons, and updates that might corrupt your data.

Zorbi is easy to use, you won't have to worry about settings or addons, and we release new features every week.»

Also, is not clear at what point you will be asking for money.

Best of luck!

questions:

- What is the business model?

- any (detailed) info about the "data exporting" functions?

- Offline use is possible?

- Any API expected? ( creating 3rd party tools )

Thanks!

No monetization right now - we have some revenue streams that will let us keep the core app free.

Freemium might happen in the future for niche features (e.g. Improved TTS / GPT-3 Flashcard Generation).

No data exporting yet. We plan to add CSV/PDF exports in the next month.

Offline mode is not possible yet - it will be within a couple of months.

Public API + Extendability is 100% planned. If you're interested in developing anything custom then get in touch with us! Might be able to set something up for you.
