Shaded – It’s Anki Meets AI

Hey language people,

After spending quite a long time working with flashcards and building up a huge vocabulary I realized… I couldn't speak or use Japanese at all. So, I created Shaded which takes the tried and true method of SRS and pairs it with an i+1 sentence crafting system.

Basically, it takes the words you know '本, 好き' and creates a sentence based on that – "私は本がすきです。"

When you answer, "You like books." it does a pretty good job recognizing what went wrong and in typical SRS fashion the word '私' would pop again after a little while.

The screenshots should be pretty useful for understanding some of its capabilities, but I can of course go into length about how it makes exercises easier or harder depending on your preferences and abilities.

If you sign up and dm me your username, I'll give you 3 months of the premium experience free. The majority of the app is free, but the premium portion is for more expensive operations like audio and unlimited skips.

This app will work best if you:

  • Know your kana
  • Have an understanding of simple grammatical structures (は、です、を、など)
