Knotd 2.0 brings a whole new way to learn in Bits, plus a lot of polish.

NEW IN BITS: SEVEN WAYS TO LEARN A BOOK
Each one fits on a single screen.
• Key Cards: swipe from the question a book answers to its ideas, one story and one thing to try.
• Your Move: a short story where you choose what to say, and the book names your choice.
• Hot Take: swipe true or myth on common beliefs, then see the book's answer.
• Name That Idea: pick what an idea means, then spot it in an everyday moment.
• Spot the Trap: find the line where a case goes wrong.
• Patchwork: short stories from different books that share one idea. Guess the idea, then turn each patch over to see its book.
• Underlined: a book's big lines in plain words, handwritten as you watch.
More than 850 sets across 250+ books.

TEST WHAT YOU REMEMBER
Many books now end with a Mixed Review: 9 questions, hints when you need them, and the reason behind every answer.

HAND-PICKED LEARN PATHS
Paths now follow a curated order. The Founder Path goes idea, product, customers, team, then money.
