Cairn

Your AI teaches. Cairn remembers.

A memory for everything you study with an AI tutor: how well you know each topic, what’s fading, and what to study next.

No account needed — your study history stays in your browser.

Works with the AI you already use

You forget on a curve. Nothing is measuring it.

A month on, the chat with your tutor is still there — every question, every answer. What’s gone is your recall of it, and nothing you use can tell the difference.

  1. Tuesday, 9pm

    Bayes’ theorem, worked through end to end. Clear as day.

  2. Seven days on

    You could probably rebuild it. Probably.

  3. Thirty days on

    Was it P(A|B), or P(B|A)?

You bring the AI. Cairn keeps the record.

Cairn never writes anything for you. It gives your AI a precise prompt, then checks every reply before it touches your data.

Here’s my Linear Algebra syllabus. [pasted]

Nothing was saved. One thing to fix:

difficulty

Remove it — difficulty is measured, not declared.

Checked. This is what will be added:

Linear Algebra — 4 sections, 22 topics

  • Vectors & Spaces · 6 topics
  • Matrices · 5 topics
  • Eigenvalues & Eigenvectors · 6 topics
  • Orthogonality · 5 topics

Start Vector operations.

First in your course. Everything it builds on is in place.

  • Vector operationsnot started
  • Linear independencenot started
  • Subspacesnot started
  • Matrix multiplicationnot started
  • Determinantsnot started
  • Eigenvaluesnot started

A test counts for more than a feeling.

When you log a test, Cairn doesn’t just note the score. The topic’s curve resets, and it fades more slowly afterwards — because recall you actually performed is evidence, and a feeling isn’t.

day 0 15 30 a test review line 82% 19% 63 points
One topic over thirty days. With a test on day 15 it ends at 82%; without, at 19% — 63 points lower. The dashed line is the review line: below it, a topic is due.

Start with one course.

Your AI turns the syllabus into topics; Cairn keeps track from there. Your study history stays on your device. An account is optional.
