Interact is an educational app for turning the things you want to learn into interactive lessons. Bring all your favorite notes, links, and videos; and turn those into interactives. It's quick and easy to play through flashcards, quizzes, and other types of lessons. The spaced repetition system is built-in so you actually remember what you learn. The idea is to take the things you're already reading, watching, and studying and turn them into something you'll still know months from now. • Create lessons from notes, links, videos, PDFs, photos, and audio • Study with flashcards, fill-in-the-blank, quizzes, typed answers, and image occlusions • Review on a spaced repetition schedule that adapts as you learn • Track your progress across subjects • Continue on the web and your account stays in sync • Share subjects with friends Spaced repetition has been around a long time, but it usually means building all your flashcards by hand. Interact does that part for you, so you can spend your time learning instead of making cards. It's useful whether you're studying for something specific, picking up a new skill, or just trying to hold on to what you read. Interact is free for creating and playing interactives, with a monthly limit on AI-generated lessons. Interact Premium unlocks more capacity and features, available as a monthly or yearly subscription.

Crammed turns lecture slides and PDFs into flashcards, then schedules every card for the day you're about to forget it. Real spaced repetition, the method medical students swear by. THE WHOLE APP IS ONE LOOP • Upload a lecture (PDF or PowerPoint). Cards start appearing in seconds. (Alternatively create your own) • It writes the card types that actually work: cloze deletions for dense facts, front/back for concepts — and skips the filler, so you get a lean deck, not a 500-card dump. • You approve or edit every card before it enters your schedule. • Study a few minutes a day. Your weakest cards always come first, and the schedule rebuilds itself around what you miss. IMAGE OCCLUSION, BUILT IN Draw boxes over any diagram — each box becomes a card that hides that region. The tool anatomy and pharm students bolt onto Anki with add-ons is native here: upload a figure-heavy lecture and Crammed offers the image cards itself. YOUR CARDS ARE YOURS • Studying with real scheduling is free forever — never paywalled. • Export any deck, any time. It opens in Anki, a spreadsheet, or anywhere else. • Bring your Quizlet sets: paste them right in, or import on the web. • Everything syncs to every device — upload on your laptop, study on the bus. WHAT WE DON'T DO • Your documents are never kept — parsed, turned into cards, deleted. • No games, no gimmicks, no feature maze. One workflow, perfected. Open the app and you're studying within a minute — no account, no tutorial, no decisions. Upload a lecture or tap the sample deck and
