Hi folks, When our classes went remote, I struggled to stay motivated; the tools we used didn’t not play nice with one another. It was lonely. So I built Barbra to give students all the tools needed to study together in one place. I wanted to get the best parts of Anki, Notion, and Duolingo and just make them work for all learners. The tool is free. And you can find it at https://barbra.io At Barbra, students have their notes and flashcards together. They can also set a daily studying goal, and hold each other accountable to it by competing for streaks. The tool is pretty bare-bone and doesn’t work so well on mobile, but I would love to hear your feedback. What do you think?

Reminds me a bit of Quizlet (search functionality on Quizlet was amazing) but looks like a nice cohesive product. Best of luck!

Thank you. Quizlet is definitely an inspiration. Our benefit is that you can write notes and flashcards in one place and share them easily in study groups. And the study groups motivate each other through visible daily goals. Quizlet only offers flashcards.
