Synto helps you understand philosophy books at a deeper level. It does this with pre and post reading activities that are fun and engaging, and unique insights as you read the book--all designed to help you understand the context of what you're reading.
Only 2% of Americans read at the highest possible level, and that's not surprising. The education system only teaches people how to read until grade 3 when they can read the words on the page. After that, there are more 'valuable' (i.e. monetizable) skills to work on. This is why we constantly see headlines like from The Atlantic in Nov 2024 - "The Elite College Students Who Can't Read Books."
Elon Musk started SpaceX on the back of reading old Russian textbooks that gave him unique insights. Jeff Bezos is said to "consistently arrive at insights that no one else did" when reading the famous 6 pager. The point is, there are huge benefits to reading at an advanced level. And this is what Synto helps with.
We've got fun quizzes and activities that are specific to the book you're reading, starting with some of the most popular philosophy books. All questions have been designed with the best reading science in mind. The micro-lessons will help you understand what you're reading and they'll help you relate the key lessons to everyday life. The app is also designed to be your assistant as you work your way through some challenging books, giving you insights you may have missed. The benefit in the end to you: enlightenment.
In a world where you can now get the answer to anything by typing a few words, it's never been more important to learn how to think for yourself. Product is in beta testing stage and we're looking for early users to help us develop the product.
