Coming soon Your study coach
What should you study today? Where do you begin? Rityvo helps you move from “I should” to “I’m getting started”, and see what you can actually recall.
For students. Coming soon to iOS.
One chapter. A clear direction.You recognise a sentence in your notes. But can you explain it once the page is closed? Rityvo organises your studies around this difference: what you have covered and what you can recall.
Add your subjects, exams, chapters and concepts. Rityvo helps you put them in order and find a place to start.
Keep your reason for studying in sight. With “My study cue”, you connect a specific moment to an action: when I put my bag down, I open the app.
A commitment you write yourself.“Today’s priority” highlights one chapter and explains why. Your plan divides chapters into study blocks based on your available time and recalculates whenever you open it.
A next step, with a view of what comes after.The Focus Ritual guides you through preparing your surroundings, choosing background sound, breathing and setting a session goal.
You turn on Do Not Disturb yourself. Rityvo does not silence your notifications.In the Active Recall, you answer from memory, then compare with your own reference definition. You then select “Missed it”, “Partly” or “Got it”. For what you must be able to do, you grade your share of success, from 0 to 100%.
What you can recall, not just recognise.Progress separates syllabus covered from estimated mastery. Your recall attempts and the time elapsed change that estimate; sessions and minutes reflect your effort.
An estimate to guide you. Not an exam grade.
Both curves come straight from the app’s formulas. Same start: one successful recall. The first student never comes back to it. The second comes back four times, spacing them out a little more each time.
What it builds on
A meta-analysis brings together 222 studies and 48,478 school and university students on retrieval tests in the classroom. In two experiments using texts, testing improved retention after a delay, even when rereading gave students more confidence.
In Rityvo, the Active Recall is the only moment your estimated mastery moves.
Yang et al., 2021 ↗ · Roediger & Karpicke, 2006 ↗A review of 317 experiments, drawn from 184 articles, shows that spacing and the delay before the exam need to be considered together. There is no universal schedule that suits every course.
In Rityvo, your plan never brings the same chapter back two days in a row. The algorithm itself is not validated by this study.
Cepeda et al., 2006 ↗A meta-analysis of 94 tests examines “if-then” plans: deciding when, where and how to act. The effect depends on the context; it is not an automatic formula for passing exams.
In Rityvo, “My study cue” gives your next study session a concrete starting point.
Gollwitzer & Sheeran, 2006 ↗These studies cover different populations, tasks and contexts. They do not guarantee higher grades or a particular retention rate for an individual.
A clear goal, breaks and a little encouragement. Rityvo helps you start and return to studying at your own pace.
The Focus Ritual lets you choose your study session length. The 25/5 format is an option, not a guaranteed optimal duration.
Mastery, priorities, planning: explore the formulas, try the simulators and understand the model’s limits.
How it works ↗The app works without an account or a server. Your study material and recall history are stored on your device. You choose what to export or send.
Read the privacy policy ↗We were students with material to study, but no clear idea where to begin. Rityvo grew out of that experience.
Discover our storyNo. Rityvo is a study coach: it helps you choose what to work on, get started and track your estimated mastery. It does not replace your course material or the effort of recalling it.
No. The cited publications study learning and planning principles. No evaluation of Rityvo’s own effectiveness is presented here. No grade or individual outcome is guaranteed.
No. It is a guide based on your recall attempts and the time elapsed, separate from time spent studying and syllabus covered. It helps you plan your studies, not predict your exam result.
Rityvo is being prepared for iOS. A launch date has not yet been announced. The download link will be added to this page when it is released.
