Why I built this
Spaced repetition helped me learn both Catalan and Spanish.
Then Memrise raised prices and shut down the community courses I'd used for years. I lost access to thousands of words I'd studied.
So I built an app that works offline, with a one-time purchase. Your learning can't be taken away by somebody else. The words are yours.

Do I need to download anything?
No. You can start learning in your browser for free. The app adds offline learning and lives on your phone when you're ready.
Is it really a one-time purchase?
Yes. You buy the app once and it's yours. There is no subscription and no recurring fee.

You keep what you've learned. The app works offline and your content stays on your device, so your progress can't be taken away.

Spanish and Catalan today, with more languages on the way. You can start either one on the web right now.
How does spaced repetition work?
We resurface each word right before you'd forget it. Reviews stay short because you only see the words you're about to lose.
