Features

Spaced repetition (FSRS): the better you know a card, the rarer you see it
AI definitions via Claude — your API key stays on your device, never sent to the server
Definition language of your choice — English, Russian, German and more
Groups with priority ranking — autosuggestion picks the group a term most likely belongs to
Everything syncs through one backend — add in the browser, review in Telegram
Morning reminders in your timezone when cards are due

How the repetition works

Every term becomes a flash card. After each review you answer “Know” or “Don't know”. Known cards come back later and later (1 day → 2.5 days → a week → …), forgotten ones reset to tomorrow. A card is considered learned after 3 successful reviews in a row. New terms are scheduled by AI-rated difficulty: easy ones wait a couple of days, hard ones show up immediately. Besides flip cards there is a quiz mode (4 options) and a sort exercise for terms that are ordered lists, like the OSI model.
