Basti is the founder of Knovato, operated by Kluger Ventures LLC. He designs study workflows that start from the PDFs and notes students already have, then turn them into quizzes, flashcards, and a daily companion loop (Bibo). He writes about retrieval practice, spaced repetition, and why cramming feels productive until the exam. The blog cites primary research (Roediger & Karpicke 2006, Dunlosky et al. 2013, Cepeda et al. 2006) and maps it onto product workflows rather than generic study tips.
