Tell Synapse what you want to learn. Get a course built for your brain.
An AI study companion that turns a goal into sequenced Topics with lessons, quizzes, flashcards, notes, and media — so you study a path, not a pile of tabs.
Methodology distilled from A Mind for Numbers, Make It Stick and Ultralearning
Goal in. Course out.
Three steps from a sentence you type to a Course you can actually finish.
State a goal
Write what you want to be able to do, in your own words. Pick a depth: a quick survey, a standard foundation, or a deep dive.
Get a Course of Topics
Synapse turns that goal into sequenced Topics along prerequisite chains — a Course you can finish, not a reading list.
Study each Topic
Open a Topic for the lesson, then lock it in with a quiz, flashcards, and notes. Generate a Course Video or Podcast when you want the overview.
Every Topic comes with study aids that stick
The surfaces you actually open after a Course is generated — not a progress bar, the work itself.
Lesson
The Topic’s teaching material, generated from your goal and ready to read.
Quiz
Active recall on the Topic — not a re-read, a check that it stuck.
Flashcards
A generated set of cards for the facts and syntax you need at your fingertips.
Notes
Your own write-up on the Topic, saved next to the lesson.
Course Video
A short generated video that introduces the Course as a whole.
Podcast
Spoken narration of the Course, with a transcript you can follow.
Watch a sentence become a syllabus
Type a goal, pick a depth, and Synapse drafts the Course in seconds. Try the demo — the real thing is one sign-in away.
Built on how the brain actually learns
Chunking, retrieval practice, and learning by doing shape how Synapse orders Topics and which study aid each one gets.
Chunk & Focus
Topics are chunked into load-sized pieces, then alternated between focused and diffuse thinking — so they consolidate instead of evaporating.
Retrieve & Interleave
Retrieval practice, interleaving, and elaboration beat re-reading. Every review is an active recall, never a passive replay.
Learn by Doing
Self-directed projects with directness and tight feedback loops. You learn the thing by doing the thing, from week one.
Guided tracks, when you want them
Interview-grade curriculum, a practice lab, a system-design whiteboard, and a focus timer — ready alongside your generated Courses.
Learners who stopped collecting courses
Different goals, different schedules — the same shift from passive watching to active recall.
I typed “get good enough at statistics to read ML papers” and got a six-week route with quizzes that actually made me retrieve things. It replaced four half-finished courses.
The flashcards plus the spaced reviews are the difference. I stopped re-reading notes and started remembering. My interview prep finally stuck.
I study on the train with the generated podcast, then do the quiz at home. Same Course, two formats — it fits around my job instead of fighting it.
