Memmo schedules your reviews with spaced repetition, the method Anki is built on. The difference is where the deck comes from: you upload your material and the cards are already written.
Slides, lecture notes, a PDF, a past exam or a textbook chapter. The hours that normally go into writing cards go into reviewing them instead.
Memmo writes the cards, keeps each one linked to the source it came from, and you edit or drop the ones you do not want.
The same scheduling Anki is known for, with no add-ons to install or settings to tune. Open the app and the due cards are there.

I had 40 PDFs in Downloads. Now they're actually in one place.

800 pages two weeks before the exam — the summary saved me.

The AI chat explains things better than half my lecturers.

The quiz finds exactly what I'm weak on and drills that.

My grades went up a full step. I'm not changing anything now.

I make a podcast out of my notes and listen on the bus in.

Came for the textbooks, stayed for everything else.

I did every old exam from 2019 on, so nothing surprised me.

I can see exactly what I don't know yet. Saves me hours.

I've got one workspace per course. Much easier to keep track.

Best study platform I've used, and I've tried most of them.

Flashcards on the metro. Twenty minutes I was wasting anyway.
