Your confidence
Not ratedReview after learning
Review uses completed learning and later evidence to show when a skill is useful to revisit.
Review timing follows real learning history
Self-rated confidence & spaced Review
Record how secure a skill feels without confusing confidence with evidence. Orthic keeps that self-rating separate from progress and Review scheduling.
Once a skill is learned, Review uses genuine practice history to help bring it back at a useful time.
