Three moves. The rest sorts itself.
i.
Open what you're already consuming.
Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Apple Books, YouTube. The widget pops up with the matched track or chapter — no setup per content.
ii.
Hold the hotkey when you want to be tested.
Default is ⌥Space. Hold to record, release to send. The widget shows the question plus the chunk it came from.
iii.
Answer out loud. Get pushed back when vague.
Whisper transcribes, GPT evaluates with a Socratic prompt, TTS replies. Cards land in your spaced-repetition deck for next time.
Designed to disappear until you need it.
II
Asks about THIS chapter.
Questions are pre-generated when content gets ingested — they're position-aware. Hold the hotkey at minute 14 and you get a question about minutes 10-15. Not a generic recap.
III
Cheap to run. Privacy stays local.
Real-time interactions cost cents because the heavy lifting happens during ingest. We don't scan your screen. Ever.
on AI
AI gives you summaries instantly. That doesn't mean you understand.
To use AI well — to prompt complex systems, to spot when a model is hallucinating, to build something real — you need first principles.
Feynominal makes sure passive consumption actually sticks. So you can drive the AI, instead of being driven by it.
