metis/ˈmiː·tɪs/noun

Every word you search
becomes a memory.

You stumble on a word. Metis turns it into a memory card and brings it back until it sticks. Any language, any level.

The loop

A translation alone rarely sticks.

Metis adds the meaning and a real example, so the word you looked up actually stays with you.

Both directions work.

Type a word in your language or the one you're learning. Metis detects which is which and translates it the right way, every time.

Every word, remembered, forever.

Words resurface on a simple schedule: 1, 2, 4, then 7 days. Reviews mix flashcards, multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank, and typing the word yourself. Notifications and Home Screen or Lock Screen widgets bring a due word back to you. Recall it once after a full week away and it graduates to Learned, for good. Along the way, watch what you've learned add up: this week, this month, this year, and everything still in progress.

04Together

Learning sticks when it's shared.

Add friends and it stops being solitary. Send them a word worth knowing, challenge each other to recall it, and see how many words each of you has learned. Mutual words surface on their own, proof you're both reaching for the same phrase in different conversations.

We didn't want another app competing for your attention. We wanted the quietest possible way to remember a word.

That's the whole idea behind Metis.
