The technology

The AI does the part you would have given up on

Making good language material by hand is why most people quit: writing the cards, finding a real example sentence, sourcing audio, checking the pronunciation. Here that work is done for you, in one app, by models that are genuinely good at it. You do the learning.

What the AI actually does for you

Not a chatbot bolted onto a flashcard app. These are the jobs that used to be yours.

  1. 01

    Learn the words your life actually needs

    Name a topic and a level — restaurant Greek, Dutch tax vocabulary, the phrases your job uses — and in about a minute AI writes you a whole collection: cards, example sentences and short stories. You start learning today, not after a weekend of building a deck.

  2. 02

    Fix your pronunciation, one sound at a time

    Say the sentence on the card and AI scores it, highlights the words that need work and shows what it heard next to what it expected, down to single sounds. Speech coach covers 31 languages; switch it on once in your learning settings.

  3. 03

    Learn grammar without studying grammar

    Paste an article, a song or an e-mail and AI translates it sentence by sentence and explains the grammar of each one. Its verb forms become practice cards (English, Dutch, German and Italian for now), so you learn them as they are really used.

  4. 04

    Understand whole conversations, not just single words

    Once you have some vocabulary, AI writes short stories and dialogues from the words you already know, at your level. Hearing your words inside a real exchange is what trains you to follow a conversation instead of catching one word in five.

  5. 05

    Train your ear with everything you learn

    Every card, story and text you add — even the sentence you typed at midnight — is turned into natural speech by AI, in 76 languages, so your listening grows with your vocabulary. A slower version is there when you want to shadow.

  6. 06

    Use every new word correctly from day one

    Type a word and AI translates it, while the pronunciation in IPA and a natural recording arrive with it, in every writing system. You know what it means and how it sounds from the first moment, instead of guessing and fixing it later.

And it is supported by smart algorithms

Generation is only half of it. The other half is a set of algorithms that decide, every session, what you actually see. None of them is a model, and we do not call them AI: for these jobs arithmetic and retrieval genuinely beat one.

It knows when you will forget

Every item carries its own difficulty and comes back just before it would slip. That timing is the difference between a review that costs you nothing and one that teaches.

It mixes instead of blocking

Material arrives shuffled rather than in neat sets, so you have to work out which rule applies before applying it. Harder in the moment, better a month later.

It finds you a real sentence

Type a word and authentic example sentences appear, pulled from millions of real ones. Retrieved, never generated, so nothing you learn from was invented.

It writes the pronunciation

Phonetic transcription on every card, in every writing system, produced by rule rather than guessed.

It orders what you hear

The listening queue leads with what you have heard least and what you find hardest, so nothing quietly goes unplayed.

It makes review uncomfortable on purpose

Items return slightly too early to be easy. The effort of pulling something back out of memory is what makes it hold.

The alternative is doing all of that by hand

Anki is a fine program and we will not pretend otherwise. But its content model is you: you type both sides of every card, hunt for an example sentence, find or record audio, look up the pronunciation, then design your own deck structure and keep it tidy for years. People do not abandon Anki because the algorithm failed. They abandon it because making material is a second job.

The wager here is simple. If the material makes itself, and something else decides what you see today, the only thing left for you to do is the learning.

The other half of the argument

Courses from A1 to C2

The Core collections run one continuous path, and you can generate your own alongside them.

Material made on demand

A collection on any topic at any level, written, translated and voiced in about a minute.

Speech coach

Say the sentence and see a score and which sounds to fix, in 31 languages.

Learn and Listen

The same library scheduled on screen and played hands-free in your ears.

This is for you if

  • You want an app where the AI actually does something, not one where it writes you a chat reply and calls that a feature.
  • You have material you need in another language and no appetite for building the cards for it by hand.
  • You have tried Anki or Quizlet and stalled, not on the reviews but on making the deck.
  • You can read the language but are never sure you are saying it right.
  • You want the AI to decide what you study today so you can stop managing your own curriculum.

What users say

Over 24,000 people forge a language with Taalhammer.

As a polyglot I tested all the other tools like Anki, Quizlet, and Memrise. But Taalhammer is in a league of its own. — Martin

The material makes itself, the schedule decides itself. Your job is the learning.
