The truth about studying
70%

Forgotten within 24 hours. Without practice, reading is just reading.

You read it.
You highlighted it.
You still forgot it.

2x
More material sticks with practice than with re-reading the same notes
0
Study apps that work entirely from your own course files, nothing else
All
Those PDFs sitting in your Downloads folder, helping no one
What Altheia does

Your notes.
Your syllabus.
Turned into
real practice.

Drop in your course folder. Walk out with a drill that knows what you need to work on, and when.

📄
Your folder. Your files.
PDFs, slides, handwritten scans. Stays on your machine. Never goes anywhere.
🧠
Asks your notes, not the internet.
Every answer comes from your own pages. Always says where.
🔁
Shows cards right before you would forget.
Not a fixed schedule. Not a streak. The card appears when forgetting is about to happen.
📦
One file. Passed around like a document.
Open it from your Downloads folder years later. Still works.
🔒
No wifi. No account. No cloud.
The full study loop runs completely offline. Always has.

Guess Model's best guess. Always shown as a guess.

Under the hood

Private.
Offline.
Yours.

Tauri + RustThin shell. Nothing like Electron.
Node / ExpressOwns the database, files, and API key. Nothing else touches them.
React + ViteThe UI. Never touches the filesystem directly.
SQLiteOne file. Local. No config.
FSRS-5Open scheduling algorithm. Cards appear right before forgetting.
GeminiYour own key. Opt-in. The study loop never needs it.
How it behaves
🔒
Works offline. Every core path. No network, no API key, no account required.
⚙️
The model suggests. Code decides. Nothing the model says writes directly to your schedule.
🧊
Topics lock after the first read. No quiet changes. You always know what the model is working from.
✍️
You grade your own answers. A wrong machine grade breaks the scheduler permanently. We do not do that.
🏷
Every answer shows its source. Syllabus, derived, or guess. Labelled every time, no exceptions.
📦
Packets are never crippled. Nothing is held back to make you use the app instead.
Altheia

Your notes deserve more than a second read.
