A gym for thinking and learning

Three sets a day.
What you learn stays.

Renfy turns anything you want to learn into a short daily workout, with a patient tutor beside you and a memory that won't let it fade.

No sign-up to try. Start with a 7-day free trial.

Try one set

Feel it in a minute.

Learn one idea, answer one question, then recall it. That is a set. No sign-up, nothing to install.

Sample set, step 1 of 3: learn

Why spacing beats cramming

Right after you learn something, you forget it quickly. Then the forgetting slows down. Each time you bring it back just as it starts to slip, it fades more slowly than before. That is why the same hour of study, spread over several days, sticks longer than the same hour in one sitting.

You learn a new idea on Monday. When is the best time to go over it again?

Pick one to see what the tutor says.

Tutor, on the answer Straight away:Not quite, and it is a very natural guess. Going over it straight away feels good because it is still easy, and easy practice does little for memory. The better moment is a day or so later, when it takes a little effort to pull back.

Tutor, on the answer A day or so later:Yes. A day later it has started to slip, so bringing it back takes some effort, and that effort is what makes it last. The next gap can then be longer: a few days, then a week.

Tutor, on the answer The night before:That gets many people through one exam, and most of us have done it. But it fades again within days. The same time spread out keeps it far longer, so a day or so after learning is a better moment.

Sample set, step 2 of 3: recall

What did you just take away?

Say it to yourself in your own words first. Then check.

How did yours compare?

Sample set, step 3 of 3: done

Set complete

  • Learned one idea
  • Answered one question
  • Recalled it in your own words

You had it, so the next gap can be longer.

Not yet is fine. That is exactly what the coming back is for.

In the real thing, this comes back tomorrow, then in 3 days, then 7.

This is a sample, so nothing here is saved. The real tutor adapts to you: your goal, your pace and your answers.

What makes it stick

You forget on a curve. Renfy trains against it.

Everything you finish comes back for a short review after 1, 3, 7, 14, 30 and 60 days: right when it is about to fade.

Spaced reviews

Every set ends with a way back.

Finish a lesson and Renfy books it to return after 1, 3, 7, 14, 30 and 60 days, each time as a short check just before it would fade.

  • A calm finish, never a lecture
  • The next set is one tap away
  • Reviews fill the start of each day

Takeaways and recall

Say it in your own words.

End a section with a one-line takeaway. Every one lands in your notebook, and comes back in your reviews and in short recall drills, so you remember your own words instead of rereading.

  • Searchable, and filtered by track
  • Recall first, then check
  • Yours to download any time

Your week in review

See what held up, and what is fading.

A weekly goal you set, a calendar of the last 26 weeks, and each track's pace and finish estimate. Time is an honest estimate, never padded.

  • Nothing to collect and nothing to chase
  • Outside study counts too: log it
  • Private unless you share

A profile that can't be faked

Show what you actually know.

Here is what an example profile looks like. Not trophies or streak counts. Your public page shows what you know today, how well it has held up, and how honest your confidence is.

  • Strength comes from reviews you really passed.
  • What you stop practising visibly fades.
  • Private until you switch it on, and you choose what shows.
