BrainFeed
Turns the article or YouTube video you keep meaning to get to into a quick, swipeable set of cards you can actually finish in the spare 3 minutes you'd otherwise spend scrolling something else.

Description
Everyone has a backlog of articles, videos and "I'll read that later" links that never actually get consumed, while the same few idle minutes each day go to whatever social feed is easiest to open. BrainFeed's bet is that if you turn that dense content into something as easy to swipe through as a social feed, you'll actually finish it — and remember it.
BrainFeed takes a goal you set (like "learn the basics of SEO") or a link you drop in (YouTube video, article, PDF) and turns it into a personalized, scrollable feed of bite-sized cards, pulling supporting material from verified newsletters, blogs and research. It layers in spaced repetition through quick-recall questions so content isn't just skimmed but actually retained, and uses a "Star Field" visual system to show what's fading from memory and needs review. It's cross-platform (iOS, with Android in early access) and integrates with your phone's share sheet, so you can send a video or article to BrainFeed the moment you find it. It's currently completely free during this early access phase, with no premium tier yet.
💬 Our review
The short version: if your problem is a huge backlog of "read later" content you never actually get to, and you already have the habit of scrolling in spare moments, BrainFeed redirects that exact habit toward something with retention built in, for free.
It sits between Pocket/Feedly (which just save content for later without repackaging it) and Anki (which handles spaced repetition well but requires you to build your own cards manually). BrainFeed's real differentiator is automating both steps — turning raw content into cards and scheduling the repetition — which neither category leader does out of the box. The tradeoff is it's early-access with no pricing model announced yet, so free today doesn't guarantee free tomorrow, and depending entirely on AI-generated card quality means retention only works as well as the summarization does. Worth trying now while it's free if you're the type who saves things to Pocket and never opens them again; skip it if you already have a working reading or note-taking system.
