FlashLeap vs Nibomo

FlashLeap is an Android and iOS flashcard app that turns study material into question-and-answer cards and schedules reviews with spaced repetition. Users can paste notes, type a topic, photograph material, or write cards by hand. AI creates cards at a chosen difficulty, and users can edit them before saving. Cards can also include photos, OCR-scanned textbook pages, voice notes, Apple Pencil sketches, math, and code blocks. Study tools include flexible modes, per-deck accuracy and study-time measures, retention curves, streaks, and streak protection. The app works offline in guest mode; an account is needed for cloud backup or syncing across iPhone and iPad. AI generation runs on a secure server, and the site says submitted text is not stored after the request finishes. The free plan includes core card creation and spaced-repetition study, five AI generations per month, and a per-device deck limit. The listed Pro annual plan costs $14.99 a year and includes unlimited decks, 100 AI generations per month, every study mode, and full analytics; a 7-day free trial is listed. Pro lifetime costs $39.99, paid once with those listed features. Payments and subscription management are handled by Apple.

Nibomo is a flashcard study app for web, iOS, and Android. Its FSRS spaced-repetition system schedules difficult cards sooner and familiar cards later, while AI can help create cards, improve their wording, and clarify answers. Studying on mobile works offline and syncs automatically. Users can import and export cards, tags, and related media, and AI agents can connect through MCP or the Agent API; the MCP server works with Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. The hosted app is free during beta, with no credit card requirement, trial countdown, or plan-based quotas on cards, files, or total storage, though technical limits still apply. AI features and sync are included during beta, but higher AI usage may later require a provider API key or paid option. The open-source stack can be self-hosted on AWS, with infrastructure and third-party provider costs paid by the operator. Hosted sign-in uses a one-time email code rather than a password. Nibomo is built by Kirill Markin and operated by SAMO DANNI EOOD in Plovdiv, Bulgaria.
