Four sciences, one plan.
ALPS isn't a to-do list with a study theme. It's an engine built on published findings — and it shows you its reasoning every step of the way.
Upload your syllabi
Paste them, upload the PDFs, or add courses by hand. ALPS pulls out topics, exam dates and weightings — and asks you about anything ambiguous rather than guessing.
Tell it what matters
An A in Organic Chemistry is non-negotiable; History can slide. Your objectives drive how the engine allocates every hour.
Get the feasibility report
Within minutes: which weeks are overloaded, which assessments collide, which courses need to start early, and how many focused hours a week you actually need.
Follow today's plan
A 15-second check-in tunes the day to how you actually are. Then a short list of sessions — with the reasoning behind each one a tap away.
Let it adapt
Exam moves, you get sick, you drop a class, you skip a week. The plan re-forms around reality without erasing what you've already done.
The evidence underneath
Every scheduling decision traces back to one of these.
Periodization
Elite coaches don't train athletes at the same intensity for 15 weeks — they build, peak, taper and recover on a plan. ALPS treats your semester the same way: macrocycle, mesocycles around exams, weekly microcycles, progressive overload capped at a safe ramp, and a deload every fourth week.
Challenge Point Framework
Learning is fastest at a specific difficulty — hard enough to demand effort, not so hard that it degrades. ALPS holds your practice at roughly 70–85% retrieval success and moves the difficulty tier up or down to keep you there, easing the band on days when you're depleted.
How memory actually works
Retrieval practice beats re-reading. Spacing beats massing. Interleaving beats blocking. These findings are decades old and almost nobody schedules around them. ALPS does — every item is scheduled at the moment you're about to forget it.
Adaptive intelligence
The first three describe how humans learn. The fourth is how the system learns you: a model of your pace, rhythms, session length and limits that improves every week — and makes next semester's first plan smarter than this one's.
What ALPS measures
You never have to look at these — the daily briefing speaks plain English. They're here because you should be able to check our work.
Your sleep, stress, energy and motivation, scored against your own baseline — not an absolute. A 60 that's normal for you is treated differently from a 60 that's a crash.
This week's study load against your recent norm. A sharp spike with low readiness is what triggers a recovery day. Borrowed from sports monitoring — and treated as a signal, not a prophecy.
Per-topic memory strength from your actual retrieval history. Topics you haven't practiced show as 'unmeasured' — never as a demoralizing zero.
The difficulty dial. It keeps practice at your challenge point and steps down automatically when your readiness says to consolidate rather than push.
Where we're honest with you
The acute:chronic load ratio comes from sports science, where its predictive validity has been genuinely contested. We use it as a descriptive signal — one input among several — not as a prophecy about burnout. Our parameters are a starting point being validated against real semesters, and we'll publish what we find, including the parts that don't hold up.
