Anki's algorithm. Built into your reading.
Reedle isn't an Anki replacement — it's Anki's missing front-end. Read articles, highlight key ideas, and create FSRS cards without ever leaving the page.
FSRS — the same algorithm as Anki. Free 30-day trial.
What is the specific term for "deep work" in Cal Newport's theory?
Professional activities performed in a state of distraction-free concentration that push your cognitive capabilities to their limit.
Two separate worlds
You read in one app, create cards in another. Context is lost. The friction means you skip card creation for most of what you read — defeating the purpose.
Card creation overhead
Making good Anki cards takes effort: copy text, switch apps, format the card, set the deck. For every article you read, that's 15-20 minutes of admin work.
Review backlog guilt
Your Anki queue has 300+ overdue cards. The guilt makes you avoid opening it. The spaced repetition system only works if you actually do the reviews.
Genuine FSRS
Not a simplified version. Reedle uses the same Free Spaced Repetition Scheduler that powers modern Anki. Again, Hard, Good, Easy — with the same interval calculations you trust.
One-tap card creation
Highlight any sentence while reading. Tap "Create Card." Done. The highlight becomes the front, AI generates the back, and the source article is linked. No app switching.
Review in your reader
Cards appear in context. When you review, you can tap to see the original article and the surrounding paragraph. Context makes recall stronger and review more meaningful.
Use both
Reedle doesn't replace your existing Anki setup. Use Reedle for reading-sourced cards, Anki for everything else. Or consolidate — your choice.
