Doomscholar

A latticework of powerful ideas — audio-narrated, cross-linked map with spaced repetition. Learn in layers. Headed for the app stores.

01 · The Human Friction

Why this exists.

Most mental model collections are static lists or disjointed blog posts. People read a concept, nod along, and forget it within 48 hours. There was no interactive system that let you explore the graph of cognitive frameworks while retaining them through disciplined spaced repetition.

02 · The Solution

How it was built.

Designed a non-linear knowledge graph where every concept is a node linked to related models. Integrated layer-based learning (skim, understand, master), synchronized audio narration for commuter listening, and an adaptive spaced-repetition review queue based on the SM-2 algorithm.

03 · Engineering Highlights

Concrete Capabilities

  • Cross-linked concept latticework with bidirectional relationship traversal
  • Studio-grade audio narration recorded for every mental model node
  • Automated spaced-repetition algorithm adapting to individual retention curves
  • Offline-first mobile PWA ready for iOS and Android app stores
