Revolutionizing Learning with Innovative Apps
Our Story
Joe’s fascination with cognitive science and memory techniques started early. Every time he moved to a new country, he relied on mnemonics to quickly learn local words and phrases, allowing him to connect with people and navigate daily life. From French to Amharic to Swahili, his method proved remarkably effective – but creating the perfect mnemonic associations and sketches for his flashcards was slow and tedious.
When the AI revolution began, Simon recalled his conversations with Joe about the transformative power of mnemonics. A self-proclaimed tech enthusiast, Simon saw the potential to make this powerful learning method accessible to everyone. He jumped into programming the very first version of MemGenTM, blending various AI models to automate the creation of visual mnemonic flashcards. These initial attempts planted the seed for Bridgely – and a randomized experiment study soon confirmed the method’s astonishing effectiveness across all participants.
Today, we’re on a journey to bring this accelerated learning technique to every corner of education that requires memorization. Fasten your seat belts, extremely high learning speeds ahead!
