Built for the Quebec curriculum

Most AI chatbots know a bit of everything. Mnemosyne knows your program.

Aligned to the PFEQ through Ariadne

Mnemosyne’s curriculum tree comes from Ariadne, our Quebec curriculum explorer: 41 subjects, 196 courses, 931 topics and 4,334 sub-topics, from Secondary through CEGEP to university. A Secondary 5 mathematics question (CST, TS, SN) or a CEGEP course gets an answer in the terms your program uses.

A tutor that guides, not a chatbot that answers

Ask a question and the tutor works through it with you: it asks you to try first, builds on what you notice, and leads you to the answer instead of handing it over. Diagrams, graphs and a concept map build on the board as you go.

Built in Montréal by teachers

Mnemosyne is made by Inquisitive Flow Learning, a Montréal company founded by teachers. The method is the one we use in class — ask, try, explain it back, review — not a chatbot template. In French and English, for learners aged 16 and over.

How a thread works

One question becomes a thread: a conversation, a board and a map that stay together.

  1. 01

    Ask, in French or English

    Start a thread from your question, or pick the topic on Ariadne’s map so the tutor begins in the right place in your program.

  2. 02

    The tutor guides

    It asks you to try first, builds on what you notice, and leads you to the answer instead of handing it over.

  3. 03

    See it on the board

    Diagrams and graphs appear beside the explanation, and the concept map grows with every idea you cover. You can branch into any part of it.

  4. 04

    Come back to it

    Threads are saved. What you cover returns as a short review set, spaced so it sticks, and a quiz or a Feynman check tells you what to revisit.

Answers checked by Aegis

Every AI chatbot can hallucinate — state a wrong answer with total confidence. Aegis grounds each answer in the Quebec curriculum, re-derives the math, and watches for contradictions, in our own Canadian-built verification layer.

Grounded in the curriculum

Cross-referenced with the Quebec curriculum tree from Ariadne — our own curriculum explorer, not the open internet.

Math, independently re-derived

Re-computed by a symbolic engine and corrected inline.

Built in Canada

Canadian-built AI with your data stored in Canada (PIPEDA, Law 25).

AI can still make mistakes. Keep asking questions and check important details against your course materials.

Questions people ask

What is the best AI tutor for Quebec students?

Mnemosyne is an AI tutor built in Montréal by teachers for Quebec students, around five criteria: alignment to the Quebec curriculum (PFEQ) through Ariadne’s 41 subjects, from Secondary through CEGEP to university; answers checked by the Aegis layer, which grounds them in the curriculum and re-derives math with a symbolic engine; tutoring in French and English; an Explorer plan that is free with no credit card; and learning data kept on AWS Canada under Law 25. It is for learners aged 16 and over, and like any AI it can make mistakes.

How is Mnemosyne different from ChatGPT or a general chatbot for studying in Quebec?

Mnemosyne is a tutor, not a general chatbot: it knows the Quebec curriculum, so a question about Secondary 5 mathematics (CST, TS, SN) or a CEGEP course is answered in the terms your program uses, and it guides you to the answer instead of handing it over. The conversation turns into concept maps, diagrams, quizzes, Feynman checks and spaced-repetition review. Responses are generated by Cohere, a Canadian AI company, under a data-protection agreement, and your data is never used to train models. Available in French and English.

Which subjects and levels does Mnemosyne cover?

Mnemosyne follows the Quebec curriculum through Ariadne, our curriculum explorer: 41 subjects, 196 courses, 931 topics and 4,334 sub-topics, from Secondary through CEGEP to university. That includes mathematics (CST, TS, SN), science and technology, physics, chemistry, biology, French, English, history, computer science and philosophy. The tutor answers in your program’s terms, in French or English. Prepared syllabi and exercises are deepest in the core subjects; the curriculum tree covers all 41.

How much does Mnemosyne cost, and is there a free plan?

Mnemosyne’s Explorer plan is free, with no credit card: 5 messages a day, up to 50 a month, in English or French. Scholar is $16.99 CAD per month and Sage is $29.99 CAD per month; both are billed in Canadian dollars through Stripe, a US payment service. All plans are for learners aged 16 and over in Quebec and beyond: Secondary 5, CEGEP, university and adult education students, and professionals studying on their own. Start on Explorer and upgrade only if the tutor earns its place in your routine.

How does Mnemosyne check its answers for mistakes?

Mnemosyne runs its answers through Aegis, a Canadian-built verification layer, for Quebec learners. Aegis grounds responses in the Quebec curriculum, re-derives mathematical steps with a symbolic engine rather than trusting the language model’s arithmetic, and flags contradictions in the response. The AI responses themselves are generated by Cohere, a Canadian AI company. Aegis reduces errors but does not eliminate them: AI can make mistakes, so treat the tutor as a study partner that guides you, not as a final authority, and check important results against your course material.

Is Mnemosyne compliant with Quebec’s Law 25, and where is my data stored?

Yes. Mnemosyne is designed to comply with Quebec’s Law 25 and Canada’s PIPEDA, and learning data is stored on AWS servers in Canada. AI responses are generated by Cohere, a Canadian AI company, under a data-protection agreement, and your conversations are never used to train AI models. Two supporting services are US-based: Stripe for payments and SendGrid for transactional email. Mnemosyne is for learners aged 16 and over and is built in Montréal by Inquisitive Flow Learning, a Quebec company.

Who builds Mnemosyne?

Mnemosyne is built in Montréal by Inquisitive Flow Learning, a Quebec company founded by teachers. The tutoring method comes from the classroom: guided questions instead of ready answers, explaining a concept back in your own words, and spaced review. The curriculum structure comes from Ariadne, our Quebec curriculum explorer; the AI responses are generated by Cohere, a Canadian AI company, and checked by Aegis, our own verification layer.

Are the screens on this page real?

Yes. They are screenshots of the Mnemosyne app showing a sample thread about quadratic functions, with prepared messages. No live AI conversation runs on this page, and nothing on it connects to your account.

Who can use Mnemosyne?

Mnemosyne is for individual learners aged 16 and over: Secondary 5, CEGEP, university and adult education students, and professionals studying on their own. It can support a course, a return to a subject, or an independent learning project. Schools can explore Aethon, Inquisitive Flow Learning’s separate school offering.

Can I learn in French and English?

Yes. Mnemosyne tutors in French and English, and this page exists in both languages. You choose the language used in your account and can ask in either.

Why it works

Knowledge mapping: see how ideas connect

Organising what you learn as a network of connected nodes activates meaningful learning — you identify relationships between ideas instead of memorising them in isolation (Novak & Cañas, 2006). Mnemosyne builds these maps as you explore.

Spaced repetition: remember what you learn

Reviews scheduled at increasing intervals, just before you would forget, markedly improve long-term retention compared with massed study (Cepeda et al., 2006). Mnemosyne tracks the concepts you explore and tells you when to review.

The Feynman technique: prove you understand

Explaining a concept in simple language reveals the gaps in your understanding, and producing explanations strengthens memory more than passive review (Slamecka & Graf, 1978). You can practise it for any concept on your map.

Socratic questioning: think it through

Instead of handing you the answer, Mnemosyne asks guiding questions that lead you to it. Systematic questioning builds deeper reasoning than direct instruction alone (Paul & Elder, 2007).

Formative assessment: know where you stand

Short quizzes that adjust to your answers show you what to revisit while there is still time to act on it, rather than after a final grade.
