if you don't want to silo your cards you might consider NeuraCache ( https://neuracache.com/ , I'm the creator)

How is a proprietary app with no export option (from what I can tell from the website) no infinitely more siloed than something like Anki?

"no export option" There is no need to export as you can't create content with NeuraCache.

You create cards in markdown or evernote or onenote or roam or ...

NeuraCache serves just as a viewer of flashcards that can be used with many sources.

The value of SRS goes way beyond memorization. When applied seriously to a field like programming, it enables you to think about the program-design space in a more abstract manner and quickly call to mind and evaluate possibilities. Look up "chunking" as it relates to performance (e.g. in chess).

I've written (and, more recently, made a video) about my 10 years of experience using SRS (via the free tool, Anki) to boost my IT skills.

Okay, I have to admit that I misunderstood you product, and my original comment was unnecessarily harsh.

If the content stays in the original apps I would highlight that on the landing page, as that's not really obvious (at least to me), and goes counter to how most apps operate.

What about the study progress? To a lot of SRS people study progress is almost as precious as the cards themselves.

You have 4 algorithms to choose from currently (SM2 is one of them) https://neuracache.com/spaced/ + I am working on SRS editor that will allow you to define your own intervals.

You can quickly access your decks via tags/notebooks etc
