## What is Hivemind?

Stop doomscrolling - start learning 10× faster.

Hivemind is the first AI-powered study app that feels like your favorite social feed.

Forget boring flashcards and instead let your existing habits turn you into an academic weapon:
Memes, micro-lessons, quizzes, and instant explanations keep you locked in and leveling up.

This is the fastest way to learn anything.

Why Hivemind?

AI Study Feeds – Type a topic (“organic chemistry”, “SwiftUI”, “K-pop history”) and get a personalized AI feed packed with memes, exercises, examples and quick takes.

Podcast → Posts – Drop any podcast link; we transcribe, summarise, and turn it a full-fledged social feed. Perfect for commuters with no time to listen.

PDF & Web Import – Share research papers, slide decks, or articles straight into the app. Coming soon: video import.

Main Feed - Blend all topics into one addictive scroll that makes you smarter at lightspeed.

Interactive Exercises – Spaced-repetition flashcards and mini-tests lock knowledge into long-term memory.

Feynman Mode – Teach the AI to truly master a subject and comprehend what you just scrolled through.

It was never easier to become a genius and master any topic as fast as possible.

### 5/5 — Bessere Erklärungen als meine Lehrer

*2026-07-29*

Die App erklärt einfach Themen verständlicher. Kein Fachchinesisch, keine endlosen Texte… einfach kurz, klar und irgendwie so das man’s wirklich checkt.

### 3/5 — Great concept flawed execution

*2026-07-19*

Great app idea I use it to study but major issues like can’t copy paste in feed and it no longer allows podcasts to be uploaded as study subjects

### 1/5 — Kostenpflichtig 🫰

*2026-07-07*

Gute Idee, schlecht umgesetzt. Die wichtigsten sozialen Mediaplatformen sind kostenlos. Siehe Wikipedia, aber auch YT, Insta, Twitch, you name it. Warum muss man Geld verlangen? Macht keinen Sinn hier für etwas zu bezahlen, wenn ich das Ganze wo anders kostenlos bekomme. Absolut Daumen runter. 👎

### 5/5 — Top

*2026-05-20*

Für das was geboten wird sind die Kosten angemessen. Die Antworten zu Softwaredesign Fragen sind besser und hilfreicher als bei PerplexityAI und Le Chat, jeweils Pro, jetzt zwei Monate getestet. Eine Tablet Version wäre noch fein, da angenehmer u zu tippen als auf den iPhone.

### 3/5 — Great idea - app is wonky/full of errors

*2026-04-27*

I like the idea and used it for three days, it partially helped me. 
What made me cancel the subscription: Feeds generated were all very similar to each other. The feeds did not reflect the tasks and content I ask for, sometimes it was far from filling the feed with the right content. 
Feed creation was bugged/did not execute.

### 1/5 — Paywall

*2026-04-17*

How about showing at least a feed with a few posts instead of asking for credit card right away? Let the user see the value of the product first!

Edit:

What I mean‘t was like 5-10 personal posts BEFORE even asking for a payment method.

**Developer response:** Hi MatinM01,
we offer a free three day trial? You can cancel this trial anytime or just start subscribe for a week for the former price of a Döner (3 Euro). 
Since all content ist generated for you it wouldn't make sense to show you generic posts.

### 4/5 — Preis zu teuer

*2026-04-12*

Sehr gute Idee aber leider zu teuer. Man merkt das der Entwickler komplett auf Geld aus ist.

**Developer response:** Hi Mädel cord, wir haben selber hohe KI Kosten, weil der Content auf dich generiert wird. Trotzdem sind wir mit 10 Euro im Monat (oder 3 Euro in der Woche) günstiger als jeder andere Anbieter. Werbung wäre nicht ausreichend um das zu finanzieren, weil wir die besten Modelle benutzen, damit es wenig Halluzination gibt.

### 5/5 — Erstaunlich effektiv und macht süchtig. Empfehlenswert

*2026-04-10*

War am Anfang sehr skeptisch ob man so lernen kann, aber es ist erstaunlich wirkungsvoll und macht schon sehr süchtig 

Im Endeffekt bekommst du einen Feed zu deinem Thema erstellt voller Memes, Bilder, Diagramme etc.

Dann sind in dem Feed selber auch noch multiple Choice & Feynman Aufgaben drin.

Ich habe selber am Meisten dadurch gelernt dass ich Sachen hochlade und dann den Threads folge oder selber kommentiere.

Edit: Der Discover tab ist ziemlich cool geworden jetzt braucht es noch Videos und vllt so einen newsflash oder so Datenschnittstellen. Wo man sich anmeldet.

### 5/5 — Bessere Erklärungen als meine Lehrer

*2026-04-10*

### 1/5 — Woah! Easy there with the payment info

*2026-04-04, version 2.9.5*

It looked like I was underway with the onboarding screens and all the “let’s go” buttons, only to come to a screaming halt where the app pre-selects a monthly subscription for a “free trial”. There is a name for this kind of approach to signing people up. “But you have 3 days to cancel”, they say? Studies show people more often forget, and opting out is not the same as opting in. Shame, cos it would’ve been worth a try, if not for such tactics.
