What StudyVisually does differently

  • Concept cards with four sides

    Each idea gets four sides: plain English, an everyday analogy, an example and where it shows up in real work. Ready-made subjects and AI decks fill all four.

  • Step-by-step diagrams

    Processes, cycles and sequences become diagrams you tap through one step at a time, with each step explained. AI decks draw one whenever your notes describe a process.

  • 60-second explain-it answers

    Interview questions give you 60 seconds to explain an idea in your own words, then show a model answer to check yours against. On Premium you can speak your answer and it is typed out for you.

  • FSRS with nothing to set up

    Flashcards follow FSRS, a modern review scheduler, from the first card, aiming for 90% recall. No settings to change and no add-ons to install.

Where RemNote is better

  • Your notes and your flashcards live in one place, so cards stay linked to their context.
  • It has more card types, including image occlusion for labelled diagrams.
  • You can annotate PDFs and plan reviews around an exam date.

Where StudyVisually is better

  • Seven ways to study one topic: concept cards, flashcards, predict-the-answer, timed explain-it answers, step-by-step diagrams, a progress map and a 20-minute daily mission.
  • Nothing to set up: open the app and study, without an account.
  • You don't need to keep notes in a new app first; bring a PDF or paste what you have.
  • More AI for less per month: Premium is $8 a month.

Can you use both?

Take notes in RemNote if that is how you think. When a topic needs a different angle, paste the notes into StudyVisually for diagrams, predict questions and timed explain-it practice.
