Remember every word
from your lessons.

Add words as you learn them. Get gentle reminders on your terms. Mark them off when you actually use them — in a lesson, a Netflix binge, or a real conversation.

How it works

1. Add the words

Paste from your lesson notes or import a spreadsheet.

2. Get reminded, your way

Email or in-app notifications. Daily, weekly, or a custom schedule. Opt-in, per list.

3. Mark them used

The moment you actually reach for a word in the wild, it graduates off your active list. Retention over drilling.

For language learners

Every word from every source, in one place

· One list per language. Words are grouped by date so you can see what you learned when.
· Practice mode with a used-it counter — retire a word only after you've reached for it a few times.
· Connect with a tutor, teacher or study partner and share the lists you choose.
· Full data export, delete anytime — you're never locked in.

For tutors, teachers & helpers

The space between your lessons

· Create a list for your student — they own it, you get full editing access.
· Add words as you teach. Every card shows who added it, no confusion later.
· Reminders live on the student's side. You help, they retain — and you never nag.
· Great for teaching Italian to one, Spanish to another, and learning German yourself.
