  • Fractional New-Card Scheduler

    Spread new cards through the week in fractional, per-deck doses instead of daily cliffs, with deck-health badges that show what the defaults hide.

    Turn URLs in note fields into resizable embedded web views, so reference material lives on the card instead of a tab away.

  • Study Triage

    One-keystroke ways to shrink an oversized day — zero new cards today, auto-accept triage — without touching your long-term scheduling.
