Sorry you feel that way. The quiz at the start is just to figure out what you’re studying, then it uses AI to come up with flashcards and quiz you


The main benefit over Anki is that it makes learning a lot easier. You don’t need to write your own flashcards, the AI will do it for you.


There's already a huge collection of open-source Anki decks, and I don't need to be logged in anywhere to use them. I'm not affiliated with the Anki project, i'm just telling you why I'm not seeing the advantage here.

Maybe if you put more information up front it would be a better proposition. You need more than a pitch going 'this product is the best!!!' for me to start investing time and giving out information.


Thank you for your comment, it's a great point, the suggestions won't be as good for narrow fields. Over time we believe we can make them good for all fields but at the moment it works less well for narrow fields.

Note though that even with poor suggestions there is still a large positive impact on memory from answering the questions, so it still works even for questions where the suggestions are not so good (its just not quite as efficient).


Thanks for your comments and the config details, sorry about it being slow! we will investigate...

appears to be fine at moment on other browser / OS combinations


Hi HN,

We generally forget 95%+ of what we learn [1]. At Save All though we believe it doesn’t need to be like this and our mission is to help people remember everything.

After telling us what you want to remember, we use GPT-3 like technologies to generate multiple choice quizzes that test you in the right way at the right time to get the information into your long-term memory and keep it there.

The product uses spaced repetition [2] and has some similarities with anki and the main following differences:

- We will ask you about your cards in many different ways rather than only 1 way (this is better for memory)

- Question types are designed so that we can verify whether you got it right or not without you needing to tell us

- This in-built “verifiability” allows us to make remembering everything feel a lot more like a game and less like a chore

- It’s easier to create cards, just type in statements you want to remember and press enter, no need to create both the front & back of cards

Try it out at https://www.saveall.ai and watch this video to learn more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTYVRfJXKVs

We’re just getting started and are here for feedback so please also comment below or email us (petros@saveall.ai) with any thoughts on how we can improve the product
