HOW IT WORKS

There are two parts to Memorai – an AI assistant that generates questions to quiz you and a powerful memory technique called spaced repetition.

1. You're browsing the internet when you come across a something you'd like to remember.
2. You highlight that text, rightclick and "add to Memorai", you will see the Memorai brain go pink.
3. Our AI assistant reads the text and automatically creates a set of flash-cards questions.
4. We spend 5 minutes quizzing you to help you remember BUT we don't quiz you all at once. Instead we use a memory technique called spaced repetition. We quiz you on day one and, if you remember, we quiz you again a week later and then a month later and then a few months later. We use Anki to automatically adjust the spacing between questions so that what you want to remember stays in your long term memory.

After just 5 minutes of work (spread across a few weeks) you will have almost effortlessly learned whatever you wanted to remember!

I can't use it. I like its idea but nothing works.After I clicked on "Send to Anki", I can't find what I added.
And there's no any settings for deck and type selection, no wonder something is wrong.

Incredible Idea with room for improvement.

This is the perfect addon idea for long term retention of facts and articles. Some features that I am personally looking for in this type of solution are as follows:

1. Highlights that remain after a cards is made
2. Ability to customize the number of cloze's created
3. Automatically create a hyperlink in the anki card to the source website (this would be huuuge)
4. Instant add to anki hotkey
(instead of highlight right-click memorai drop down then click send to anki)
(ideally: highlight hotkey. that's it.)

As it stands it's too many button clicks, because my native solution to this would be: highlight text copy paste into anki create manual cloze create card So currently the addon does not really save too much time (1 button click) to the default method of card creation, and does not add much to that workflow.

If it is within your ability to do so, I think streamlining this addon with the use of hotkeys and adding permanent highlights to the website/article would be huge steps in making this addon extremely beneficial and practical.

Why not allow sending custom questions to Anki and instead use AI for it? I know it's free work and it's taken your precious time, but I don't understand the 5 questions it's made, some of them are from the middle of the sentences and some other are whole sentences picked from the text I've pasted. Sorry, maybe I'm not "getting" it.

I like the idea behind this. But actually I can't use it as intended. I opened anki & installed add-on & chrome ext. I can see "Connected to Anki: Connected!" in the option page. But when I clicked on "Send to Anki", nothing happened neither in anki or in the ext popup panel. Don't know what's going on. But I do love the idea. Keep fighting.

Great addon but it seems that it will only work proberly with english only at the moment. I am German so this limits it a bit. But it is still a great addon.
