So ive been looking at a lot of study tools online, there's studyfetch, Studley ai, ask maeve, raena ai, notebooklm and so many more. But they all basically do the same thing. I upload my textbook and I'm trying to study one section only but it's giving me flashcards for the entire textbook. Like tf??

Another thing is that every one of them are so painful to look at, there's like a million things going on or that it's hard to read, like the contrast especially with Studley is just so frustrating.

Anyone else experiencing the same thing? I do know that notebooklm does have good features but a lot of them are unusable for large pdf for studying one part.

I used to rely on memorisation to pass my exams. It worked, well.... it did for a while. At some point I started confusing memorisation with learning, and that's when I began bomb my tests.

So I went searching for tools that actually test understanding, not just memory. Everything I found had the same problems, high contrast UI that gets hard to look at after a few minutes, random percentages, distracting icons, gamifications that honestly distracted me from studying. None of it worked for me.

Then someone pointed me to Anki. I tried it. Two problems: it's tedious to build manually, IDK about you but i ain't got time for that, and it still just tests memory in isolation, so another fail.

That got me thinking, what if I took the same world class spaced repetition algorithm Anki uses, but instead of repeating the same fixed question, the question changes while staying on the same topic? That way I actually test understanding, not recall.

So I built it. Four months later, I have a demo. It's called Lura-Theta.

Here's what I focused on:

The interface -- no high contrast, no 1000 icons, no gamification, no streaks. I went with an off-white background for easy reading in light mode, and for the normal people (cuz who uses light mode) a warm charcoal for the background. If you're neurodivergent, this was built with you in mind from the start, every one of those decisions was intentional. Disability should never be a barrier to learning.

The chat tool -- uses the Socratic method, if you dont know like i didnt 4 months ago, it's basically instead of handing you answers, it makes you reason through the question yourself. It also links concepts to your personal interests, which you can update or opt out of entirely.

The deck -- this is my favourite part. Oh yh, did i forget to mention? when you upload a document, it automatically creates a chat session and a deck linked to each other, and builds a full curriculum to teach you along.

The deck uses concept-varied spaced repetition, the same world class algorithm as Anki, but the question changes every time while staying on the same topic. So instead of memorising the answer to a fixed question, you're actually forced to understand the concept. From there, as you're chatting with it, it detects your mistakes and weak points and automatically adds those cards to your deck for review. No manual setup. You can also just tell it to add something, or go into the deck and add cards yourself if you want that control.

Data privacy -- I follow EU and UK standards. The only things stored are what the site needs to function: chat messages, document uploads, your deck and its cards (multiple choice, fill in the blank, flashcard, and theory questions), and optionally your interests.

Right now I'm searching for 50 testers to tell me what works, what doesn't, and what's missing. As a thank you, testers get a lifetime subscription if the product takes off. It's currently free to use. for subscription payment, just use:

Card number: 4242 4242 4242 4242 expiration: 09/29 cvv: 123

If you do use it, please let me know.

If that sounds like you, drop a comment or DM me. Every feedback is appreciated.
