Guided by occupational therapy
That's the difference.
Most study apps are made by people who find studying easy. Cardie is built on principles from occupational therapy, the field whose whole job is making hard everyday tasks work for real brains. Here's what that looks like:
In OT, scaffolding means temporary support that fades as the skill takes hold, not a permanent crutch. That's the model here. Executive function (the "I should" to "I did" pipeline) can be inconsistent with ADHD and autism. Honey backs it up until it doesn't need backing up.
Deciding what matters is the part that burns you out. Dump everything, Cardie figures out what's worth your attention.
Actually, it's built in. Moving your hands helps your brain stay put. Yes, there's research.
Missing a card just means "see it again sooner." Honey rewards showing up, not being perfect.
Colors, sounds, fidgets, layout. Nothing is one-size-fits-all because nobody is.
Wait, what's an OT? Occupational therapists help people of all ages with attention, sensory stuff, and getting daily life to work. Learn more →
Bottom line: Cardie is a study tool guided by OT principles. It isn't therapy and should not replace professional advice.
