Knowledge graph
Start with a topic, picture, or text excerpt, then turn scattered knowledge into a graph, not another stack of flashcards.
Remember what you actually learn.
A knowledge graph that remembers with you. Active recall beats the forgetting curve, so what you learn actually stays.
“The educated differ from the uneducated as much as the living differ from the dead.”
— Aristotle
How does it work?
One place for research, mapping, and recall.
See the graph, check the source, accept the useful connection, and practice before it fades. The loop stays visible, so your attention does too.
Learning routes
Follow a recommended path through connected concepts, with the key ideas and sequence made clear.
Source-backed research
AI suggests new concepts and connections, each with a source you can verify. You decide what enters your graph.
Connected articles
Turn selected concepts and their relationships into readable, sourced articles you can revisit and share.
Adaptive review
Accepted concepts become reviews. Active recall pulls them from memory. No flashcards, no passive re-reading.
Mastery tracking
Track mastery per concept. See what sticks and what's slipping. Harder correct answers earn more.
Pay for value
Use AI when you need it. Buy one-time credit packs and spend them only on research, media discovery, and reviews.

Learning science, built into the loop.
Aristotree is grounded in memory research: cognitive offloading, the generation effect, retrieval practice, and spaced repetition. Every accepted idea comes back for active recall before it fades.
Stay sharp
AI gets smarter every day. So should you.
The more you lean on AI, the more your judgment fades. Use the tool, keep thinking.
Research
Cognitive offloading is the delegation of cognitive tasks to external resources such as AI. Frequent use of AI tools is associated with negative impacts on critical thinking.

AI can answer. Only you can understand.
AI answers are rented. Understanding you keep by generating it, not receiving it.
Research
The generation effect: people are better able to remember material which they themselves generate, compared to material which they read.

Your knowledge isn't a folder. It's a graph.
Your knowledge graph is how you think. Tend it like a growing tree, not a dead folder.
Research
Meaningful learning requires anchoring new concepts to existing knowledge structures. A knowledge graph makes that anchoring visible.

Spaced repetition makes knowledge last.
Review pulls ideas from memory before they fade. That's how they stick.
Research
Retrieval practice produces stronger long-term retention than restudying. Spaced repetition spaces out practice sessions.

Workflow
From curiosity to lasting recall.
Three habits that turn curiosity into understanding. Spaced repetition, active recall, and retrieval practice — all backed by decades of memory research.
01
Start with a concept
Add a topic directly, or pull concepts from a picture or text excerpt. That's your first concept node — the anchor everything else connects to.
02
Apply sourced research
AI suggests related concepts with sources you can check. Accept what's useful, reject what's not. Your graph, your call.
03
Review until it sticks
Spaced repetition brings concepts back before the forgetting curve takes them. Active recall pulls them from memory — that's what makes knowledge durable.
