Remember Everything You Learn with Spaced Repetition

Memlex uses the FSRS algorithm to schedule reviews at the perfect moment - right before you forget. Learn faster, study less, remember more.

What is Spaced Repetition?

Spaced repetition is a learning technique that shows you information at increasing intervals, based on how well you know it. Material you struggle with appears more often; material you know well appears less often.

Day 1

Learn new material

Day 3

First review (before you forget)

Day 10+

Intervals grow as memory strengthens

The Science of Memory

Spaced repetition is backed by over 100 years of cognitive science research.

The Forgetting Curve

In 1885, Hermann Ebbinghaus discovered that we forget information at a predictable rate. Without review, you'll forget 70% of new information within 24 hours. Spaced repetition fights this by reviewing at optimal moments.

The Testing Effect

Actively recalling information (testing yourself) strengthens memory far more than passive review (re-reading notes). Flashcards leverage this by forcing active recall every time you see a card.

The Spacing Effect

Spreading reviews over time is more effective than cramming. Each review at the right moment strengthens the memory trace, leading to long-term retention instead of short-term recall.

Why FSRS is Better

Memlex uses FSRS (Free Spaced Repetition Scheduler), a modern algorithm that outperforms traditional methods like SM-2 used in Anki.

30% Fewer Reviews

FSRS is more efficient at scheduling, meaning you spend less time reviewing while maintaining the same retention rate.

Personalized Parameters

FSRS can optimize its parameters based on your review history, adapting to your personal memory patterns.

Direct Retention Control

Set your desired retention rate (e.g., 90%) and FSRS schedules reviews to achieve exactly that target.
