TAGiT v0.9: Master Your Learning with Smart Spaced Repetition

You forget 90% of what you watch within a week. That's not a personal failing; it's how human memory works. But what if your learning tool actually adapted to how you learn?

Today, we're releasing TAGiT v0.9, our biggest update yet. We've rebuilt the flashcard system from scratch with one goal: help you actually remember what you watch.

The Problem with Traditional Flashcards

Most flashcard apps treat every card the same. Study this card today, review it again next week. One size fits all scheduling.

But your brain doesn't work that way. Some concepts click immediately. Others take multiple attempts. Some cards become frustratingly difficult no matter how many times you review them.

TAGiT v0.9 adapts to how YOU learn.

What's New: Smart Learning That Adapts

🎯 Science-Backed Spaced Repetition

We've implemented a learning system based on 140 years of memory research:

Learning Steps: 10min → 1hr → 1 day

New flashcards don't just appear in your review queue randomly. They progress through deliberate learning steps designed to build lasting memory:

• •First review: 10 minutes after creation
• •Second review: 1 hour later (if needed)
• •Third review: 1 day later (if needed)

Cards that you rate as "Got it" can skip steps and graduate faster. Cards that need more practice move through each step deliberately. This is when real learning happens.

Mastery Progression: New → Learning → Reviewing → Mastered

Watch your knowledge grow visually. Each flashcard moves through four stages:

• •New: Cards you haven't studied yet
• •Learning: Cards progressing through initial steps
• •Reviewing: Cards you're actively maintaining
• •Mastered: Cards you consistently remember

This isn't just motivational; it helps you focus study time where it matters most.

📚 Custom Flashcard Collections

Different topics need different study approaches. That's why we've added Custom Collections.

Organize flashcards by:

• •Podcast or creator (Diary of a CEO, Huberman Lab, Lex Fridman)
• •Topic or theme (Mental Health, Leadership, Innovation)
• •Goal or project (Learn Negotiation, Master Productivity)

Create focused study sessions instead of reviewing random cards from every video you've ever watched.

Freemium access:

• •Free users: 1 collection to try it out
• •Pro users: Unlimited collections

🏷️ AI-Powered Categorization

Every flashcard is now automatically organized by topic:

• •Programming
• •Technology
• •Business
• •Finance
• •Health & Fitness
• •Personal Development
• •Science
• •General Knowledge
• •Creative
• •Cooking
• •Entertainment
• •Language Learning
• •Productivity

Filter your study sessions by category or let the AI organize your knowledge library automatically. You can always manually adjust categories to match your mental model.

⚠️ Struggling Card Detection (Leech Detection)

We all have cards that just won't stick. TAGiT v0.9 identifies these "leeches" so you can take action.

When a card becomes challenging (after multiple incorrect answers), you'll see warning badges:

• •🟡 Challenging
• •🟠 Difficult
• •🔴 Critical

TAGiT identifies these struggling cards and marks them with warning badges. You'll see options to edit the card directly or delete it if it's not working. This helps you take action on problem cards instead of repeatedly failing them.

Stop wasting time on cards that don't work. Fix or remove them instead.

🎨 Enhanced Focus Mode

Study without distractions. Enter fullscreen Focus Mode during any study session for:

• •Clean, distraction-free interface
• •Full keyboard navigation (Space to reveal, Arrow keys to rate)
• •Session progress tracking

Perfect for dedicated study sessions where you want to eliminate everything else.

Why This Matters

Before v0.9: You had flashcards from videos, but they were a flat list. Review whenever, rate them somehow, hope you remember.

After v0.9: You have a complete learning system that:

• •Schedules reviews scientifically
• •Tracks your mastery progression
• •Organizes knowledge automatically
• •Identifies and helps fix problem areas
• •Lets you focus on what matters

This is the difference between having flashcards and having a learning system.

Real-World Impact

Here's what this looks like in practice:

Scenario: Learning from Business Podcasts

You watch "Diary of a CEO" episodes on leadership, productivity, and personal growth. TAGiT creates flashcards from each key insight.

With v0.9:

1. •New cards start in Learning (10min → 1hr → 1 day)
2. •Cards auto-categorize under Business, Personal Development, etc.
3. •Create a "Leadership Principles" collection
4. •Study in Focus Mode for 15 minutes daily
5. •Watch struggling cards get flagged with suggestions
6. •Track cards moving from Learning → Mastered

After two weeks, you've systematically mastered 50+ concepts from your favorite podcasts with optimal review timing. Not by accident, by design.

Technical Details (For the Curious)

We rebuilt the spaced repetition engine from scratch:

• •Supermemo 2 algorithm for review scheduling
• •Learning steps system (inspired by Anki)
• •Leech detection with configurable thresholds
• •Category taxonomy with manual override
• •Collection-based filtering in study sessions
• •Mastery progression state machine

All backed by PostgreSQL with optimized Row Level Security policies for complete data privacy.
