Synapse - Language Learning

Sound like a local — not a tourist. Learn through immersive stories, snap a photo of anything to learn it, and train your ear with science-based memory tools.

Synapse is built on how your brain actually learns languages — not how textbooks teach them. Learn through immersive stories, snap a photo of anything to learn its name, and train your ear to sound like a local.

LEARN THROUGH STORY Watch full-screen cinematic stories with word-by-word translations synced to the audio. Tap any word to learn it instantly, or save a whole sentence to your study deck — story gives every new word a context your brain can actually hold onto.

SMART FLASHCARDS Build vocabulary with spaced repetition powered by the FSRS algorithm. Create cards from translations, AI-generated definitions, or snap a photo of any object with Language Lens to instantly learn what it's called in your target language.

EAR TRAINING Train your ear to hear the sounds that matter. Synapse generates minimal pair exercises tailored to your native and target language, helping you distinguish sounds that native speakers hear effortlessly.

STRUCTURED COURSES Follow a curriculum of 746 vocabulary concepts organized into thematic units. Track daily goals and watch your progress grow across reading, listening, and recall.
