Experience an improved workflow

Read and watch content you enjoy

Most language apps and classes use generic, unexciting content that fails to keep learners engaged. When you're genuinely interested in what you're reading or watching, learning happens effortlessly.

Make learning frictionless

Make learning frictionless

Traditional language learning is full of friction. Everytime you look up a word, you have to break your flow - whether it's flipping through a dictionary or switching between apps. This constant switching disrupts focus and makes learning feel like a chore.

Instantly look up words and stay immersed in the content you enjoy.

Solidify your knowledge

Languages have thousands of words, and remembering them all can feel overwhelming. Without the right tools, new words are easily forgotten.

Send new words to Anki with a single click and review them at optimal intervals to reinforce understanding.

Review saved webpages to naturally remember the words you've learned, an underrated but powerful way to boost retention.
