Learning languages is actually pretty simple: if you consume content you enjoy, and you understand that content, you will make progress. Period.

Migaku (and its Chrome browser extension) enables you to do that:
1. Our courses take you from 0 to 80% comprehension in ~6 months (10 cards/day)
2. We make text interactive: click words in your phone's YouTube subtitles to see what they mean
3. We let you make flashcards out of those words with one click
4. We make personalized study sessions out of the flashcards you create
5. Repeat!

Whether you're learning Japanese, Mandarin, Korean, Spanish, German, Cantonese, Portuguese, English, French, Italian or Vietnamese, Migaku gives you the tools you need to make real progress.

Migaku – AI Language Learning Tool

■ How languages are really learned:

Trying to learn a language by following a textbook is kind of like reading a textbook about biomechanics to learn how to ride a bike. If you want to watch movies in other languages, you need to practice watching movies. If you want to read books in other languages, then you need to practice reading. Why? Because as you spend more time doing the things you enjoy doing in your target language, you'll build the unique skills you need to more easily do those things.

Unfortunately, it's hard to consume media in another language as a beginner.

And that's where Migaku comes in:

■ Data-driven courses for beginners

The problem with most apps/textbooks is that they teach you what someone else thinks you need to know, and those things may not reflect what you actually need to know to do the things that are important to you. This matters because not all words are used equally often: while an adult native speaker knows ~30,000 words, you only need to know ~1,500 to recognize 80% of the words in modern media.

Our flashcard-based courses teach you these ~1,500 words—the ones that are useful to everyone, no matter their goals—plus a few hundred basic grammar points. What makes our courses special is that every "next" flashcard contains only one new word, making Migaku's learning curve super smooth. You're always learning something new, but never overwhelmed. It's a fluent language learning approach.

We currently have courses available for Japanese, Mandarin, and Korean.

■ Turn subtitles and text into interactive language learning opportunities

Migaku makes texts interactive: just click on words to see what they mean... or listen a real audio recording of it, check images of it, example sentences that include it, get an AI explanation of what it means in context, and have AI translate the sentence it appears in or break it down word-by-word.

Basically, Migaku lets you consume content in another language as if you knew as many words as a native speaker.

Our mobile app supports YouTube, manually pasted content, and physical content like books or street signs.
Our Chrome extension supports web pages and several popular streaming websites.

■ Create custom study cards or import language flashcards

Find a useful looking word while consuming content? Turn it into a high-quality flashcard with one button, and Migaku's spaced repetition language practice algorithm will create personalized study sessions for you. You'll be nudged to review these flashcards periodically, ensuring you remember them.

Decks designed for the Anki flashcard app can be converted for use with Migaku, too.

■ Study anywhere, even offline

Migaku's courses and any flashcards you make are available offline and automatically sync between all of your devices.

■ Learn multiple languages at once

A single Migaku subscription gives you access to all of Migaku's languages and lets you use all of Migaku's features and AI language learning tools as much as you want.
