Why we're building Yomi.
The problem
Almost everyone learning Japanese hits the same wall. You finish the beginner course. You can read the hiragana. And then you put on something in Japanese and understand almost none of it โ because nobody talks like a textbook.
The shift
The people who break through the wall almost always do the same thing: they stop studying Japanese and start consuming it. Hours of real speech, looking up what they don't know, letting the patterns settle in on their own. It works โ but doing it properly means juggling a dictionary, a subtitle file and a flashcard app all at once. Most people give up on the setup long before the method can work.
The outcome
Yomi is that whole setup collapsed into one screen. Real clips, a transcript you can tap, and a flashcard deck that builds itself out of the words you actually met. No tabs, no exports, no configuration. Just press play.
