Orbit Notes

Turns any lecture into ten minutes of daily recall practice.

Founders’ pitchAll figures illustrative

Students reread their notes. It barely works.

Why now

Three shifts make this possible

  1. Notes went digital. Course material already lives in slides and documents.
  2. AI can write good questions. Turning notes into recall prompts is now cheap.
  3. Phones are always there. Ten minutes a day fits between classes.

The product

Your notes, turned into a daily quiz

Upload a lecture. Orbit writes recall questions, schedules them with spaced repetition and shows what you are about to forget.

How it works

From lecture to memory in three steps

  1. Capture

    Import slides, PDFs or typed notes from any course.

  2. Practise

    Answer a short daily quiz written from your own material.

  3. Remember

    Reviews space out as answers stick, and return when they slip.
