About Us

Fyreminders, thank you for learning with us!

Fyremind is a passion project. It was built after we witnessed our children struggle with physical flashcards for schoolwork, and wondered why there isn't a way to practice math and vocabulary with leveling, tutorials, and performance tracking built in.

The goal of Fyremind is to provide a fun and interactive way to keep one's brain sharp, using real-world scenarios that everyone encounters. We want to help you exercise your brain with real challenges, not made-up ones.

Fyremind is yours; its user community makes it work. We want to hear feedback and suggestions, from the details (bug fixes, typos) to the macro ("I need a card for [fill in the blank]"). Use our feedback form and let us know what you think.

Happy Learning!
