Synapse · v3.2

A bigger and better analytics dashboard

Your analytics page is redesigned around insight tiles that unlock as you study, a pinned briefing of your lifetime and weekly progress, and a shareable Mistake DNA card with your projected score gain. And because so many of you told us you needed more room, we’ve raised mistake limits on every plan. So you can log everything and fully fill out these insights.

June 14, 2026

New analytics dashboard

  • A redesigned analytics page led by a pinned briefing: your lifetime totals (questions drilled, mistakes logged, hours invested, concepts touched) and this week’s study habits at a glance.
  • Insight tiles unlock as you log more mistakes and complete more drills, so the insights grow with you instead of starting empty.
  • New views: a mistake cause and section heatmap, your weakest sections and concepts, weakness trends (what’s improving vs. slipping), an improvement curve by section, and time-per-drill against MCAT pace.
  • A full concept-coverage map showing every concept you’ve touched and how much. Concept coverage

More mistakes on every plan

  • You told us — loud and clear — that many of you need more room each period to capture everything you’re getting wrong. We heard you.
  • So we’ve raised the mistake limit on every paid plan: 250 per 1-month period, 1,200 per 4-month period, and 3,000 per year (up from 175 / 800 / 2,000) — plenty to log every mistake and properly fill out your new analytics insights.

Mistake DNA

  • A shareable, downloadable “Mistake DNA” card that turns the mistakes you’ve mastered into a projected MCAT score gain, with a per-section breakdown and your weekly percentile.
  • Unlocks once you’ve mastered enough mistakes through review.

New Drill History viewer

  • A rebuilt, faster Drill History grouped by mistake, so it’s easier to revisit past drills and pick up where you left off. Drill History

UI/UX

  • General UI/UX tweaks and fixes across the dashboard.
Synapse · v3.1

Mistake notes and a new study toolbar

Add notes to your mistakes and see them wherever you study, plus a redesigned focused session view that gathers your tools into one toolbar, a built-in periodic table on Chem/Phys drills, and notes in Drill History.

June 4, 2026

Notes on your mistakes

  • Add a short note when you log a mistake (for example, a reminder of what tripped you up). It is tied to the mistake, so it shows on every drill generated from it.
  • Write or edit a note from the Note tool during a session, and see it again with the answer explanation after you check.
  • Your notes now appear in Drill History next to each mistake.

New session layout and study toolbar

  • Starting a session now drops you into a cleaner, focused view with a toolbar pinned to the top.
  • Your study tools live in one place: highlight passage and question text, eliminate answer choices, and open your note without leaving the question.

Periodic table

  • A built-in periodic table (symbol, atomic number, atomic mass) is available in the study toolbar on Chem/Phys questions, just like test day.

UI/UX

  • Add a note right from the add-mistakes form.
  • Redesigned Drill History rows, plus more UI/UX polish across the app.
Synapse · v3.0

Drill mixes and a sharper feel

Pick how each mistake gets drilled: choose how many drills (1–4), what variant each one is, and save the configurations you like. Plus a replayable tutorial, drill flagging for bad questions, faster generation with sharper output, and a wave of UI/UX fixes.

May 21, 2026

Drill mixes

  • Pick how many drills you want per mistake (1–4) and choose a variant for each slot. Twin (same concept, different surface), Lateral (same skill, different domain), Discriminator (adjacent concept that confuses you), Foundation (prerequisite underneath).
  • Three built-in mixes to start with: Standard practice (Twin, Lateral, Discriminator), Figure-heavy, and Foundations focus.
  • Paid plans: save up to 20 custom mixes and pick which one pre-loads on the add-mistakes form. Manage presets

Drill flagging

  • See a drill that does not match the original mistake, has an ambiguous answer, or just feels off? Flag it during review with a one-click report so we can keep fixing the underlying generation.
  • Paid plans: flagged drills credit back to your usage so a bad drill never costs you a mistake.

Faster, smarter drill generation

  • Re-tuned generation prompts and models, so drills come back faster and target the underlying mistake more accurately.
  • Substantially fewer non-question outputs (drills that read like explanations instead of testable questions).

Replayable tutorial

  • A walkthrough of the dashboard for new users, now replayable any time from Settings
  • Refreshed copy and pacing throughout. Clearer at each step, less to read between gates.

UI/UX fixes

  • Drag-and-drop screenshots onto the add-mistakes form (in addition to paste and choose-file).
  • Refreshed settings layout with a new Presets tab for paid users.
  • Tweaked copy and layout across several common flows.
Helix · v2.2

Non-blocking mistake submissions

Mistake classifications now run in the background so you can keep submitting while they process, and more UI/UX improvements across the site.

May 3, 2026

Background classification queue

  • Submitting a mistake no longer blocks the form. The classification runs in the background and tracks progress in a queue tray, similar to a Google Drive upload tray.
  • Queue up more mistakes back-to-back while previous ones are still being classified; each row shows live status, an estimated progress bar, and a "taking longer than usual" hint when a job runs past its typical duration.
  • Click any completed row in the tray to view the classification result, retry failed rows in place, or dismiss them once you’re done.

Stability and quality

  • Migrated to a more reliable toast notification system for clearer feedback across the dashboard.
  • Fixed a visual issue where the navbar appeared darkened when modals were open.
  • Tweaked UI/UX for certain common user flows.
Helix · v2.1
