Knowledge that
actually sticks
You capture brilliant insights—then never see them again. know-hub resurfaces your notes in elegant, swipeable reels. What you read today, you'll remember tomorrow.
You're not capturing knowledge
You're creating a graveyard
You read Atomic Habits. Highlighted 47 passages. Took 12 notes. Felt enlightened.
Three months later, someone asks: "What did you learn from that book?"
You remember... something about 1% better? Maybe habits compound?
of notes never revisited after 1 week
forgotten within 30 days without review
compound returns on write-only knowledge
The problem isn't that you don't capture enough.
The problem is you never see it again.
Spaced repetition shouldn't feel like homework
Your notes return to you in a swipeable feed—like stories, but for your knowledge. Algorithms ensure you see them at optimal intervals. Retention becomes effortless.
Swipe through insights
Your notes appear one at a time. Swipe up for next. Like Instagram, but you're getting smarter.
Intelligent timing
Notes you just captured appear daily. Notes you've seen 3 times appear weekly. Exponential spacing = long-term memory.
No heavy inbox
Open the app, swipe for 2 minutes, close. No guilt. No overwhelming lists. Just gentle, consistent review.
Cialdini: Reciprocity Principle
People feel obligated to return favors. Give value first, before asking. The key is genuine giving, not manipulation.
Memory compounds
like interest
You capture 10 notes from Deep Work. See each one 3× this week through reels. Recognition forms.
Same notes resurface weekly. You start applying them. "Time blocking" becomes habit, not just highlighted text.
You've now captured notes from 12 books on focus. Reels surface connections you didn't see before. Synthesis happens.
You can quote these books from memory. Not because you studied—because you saw insights resurface naturally over time.
"I used to highlight books and forget them. Now I highlight once, review through reels, and the ideas become part of how I think."
