## What is Notch?

The smartest five minutes of your day.

Most apps hand you an endless feed of headlines you scroll, forget, and never actually learn from. Notch does the opposite. Each day it gives you one sharp, in-depth brief on something genuinely worth knowing, then a quick quiz so it actually sticks. Five minutes. Real understanding. A streak worth protecting.

HOW IT WORKS
- Read one brief. A focused, well-written story that teaches you something, not just headlines you.
- Take the quiz. Three questions after every brief. Lock your answer, see exactly why it is right, and the knowledge sticks.
- Keep the streak. Ace the quiz to extend your streak. Miss it and it resets. That is the point.

LEARN WHAT INTERESTS YOU
Pick your topics and Notch tunes your daily brief to them: science, history, finance, technology, space, health, philosophy, AI, and more. Want to go deep instead of wide? Choose a goal like Become AI Fluent and follow a focused track that builds real understanding, concept by concept.

BUILT FOR THE CURIOUS
- Five minutes a day, no doomscroll
- One fresh brief every morning
- Quizzes that build real recall, not just taps
- Streaks, levels, and XP that reward showing up
- Topics that rotate so your knowledge compounds over time

Notch is for people who want to be a little sharper every day, and to actually remember what they learn.

Start your streak today.
