Martin Schneider
Martin Schneider is the co-founder and CEO of RemNote, the all-in-one note-taking and spaced-repetition app he started coding as an MIT computer science student in 2017 to fix his own habit of forgetting everything he learned a semester later. What began as a private side project he used alone for three years grew into a learning platform with over a million users, backed by a $2.8M seed round from General Catalyst, 468 Capital, Soma Capital and Dorm Room Fund. He blends learning science, neuroscience and software to chase a single idea: that you should be able to learn something once and remember it forever.
