Y Combinator Startup School
Watch a page get read.
A fountain pen, a sheet of cotton, and an iPad that reads what you wrote — then teaches from it. Every frame is the real app.
Write. Circle. Learn.
-
01
Write like you always have.
Ruled, dotted, or blank. Your handwriting, your pace, an Apple Pencil canvas that stays out of the way. Glyph reads every line as you write it, on-device.
Ink is read as ink, on-device
-
02
Circle anything.
Lasso a term, a step, a whole problem. A capsule rises under it — Explain, Hint, Check my work — and it knows what you circled because it read the page.
Explain · Hint · Check my work
-
03
It teaches. It never just tells.
Steps written out like a tutor on paper. A worksheet aimed at the exact spot you slipped. A quiz later, from your own pages — because that's how things stick.
Steps first · answer last
A widget for everything.
Everything a study session needs, floating on the page you're writing on — not in five other apps.
Your tools live beside your notes.
Graphing, calculator, Math Lab, timers — docked on the page you are writing on, never a tab away.
Written for you.
Your tutor reads your pages, finds the spots you slipped on, and writes a practice set aimed exactly there.
Friends on the same page. Literally.
Match with classmates studying the same thing — their ink shows up live, in their colour, with a chat beside the page. One switch presents it to the room.
A tutor in the margin.
Ask about anything on your page — plain language, steps written out, instant and on-device.
Just ask, out loud.
Talk to your tutor and it talks back. Record the lecture and it writes itself down beside your notes.
Notes become flashcards. Then quizzes.
Glyph builds a deck from the pages you wrote, then tests you on them — retrieval practice, built in, not bolted on.
Write it down. That's the whole interface.
Feels like paper. Thinks like a tutor.
A real page from the app, set down as an object. Nothing on this page is a mock-up.
Built to make you learn, not skip.
Glyph never just hands you the answer. It walks the steps, shows the picture, and quizzes you later — because the research is clear: that's how things actually stick.
Explain, hint, check — the answer is last, and it comes with the working.
Flashcards and quizzes come from your own pages, on a schedule that remembers for you.
Reading and tutoring run on-device. Taking notes is free, forever.
