The moat

## AnkiHub maintains the deck. exclam.ai runs the study plan.

AnkiHub solves a real problem: keeping a shared deck like AnKing maintained as the underlying material changes. It does not give you a daily plan, decide when to start mocks, or notice you’re behind on cardio. exclam.ai uses your AnKing-style deck as one input to a planner that includes reading, retrieval, mocks, and weak-spot drills — built around your real exam date.

- Use AnkiHub for deck maintenance, exclam.ai for the plan around it
- Coverage → review → mocks phases tied to a real exam date
- Per-topic mastery from quiz attempts, not just card reps
- Weak-spot remediation tasks generated automatically

AnkiHub

AnkiHub is a deck-collaboration layer that lives inside Anki. There is no planner, no exam-date model, no coverage cursor — those decisions stay with you and Anki.

exclam.ai

Phased plan that maps your PDF to a daily schedule, rebalances when you fall behind, and routes weak spots into targeted quizzes.
