MindDory - Learn words once. Actually remember them.
by•
MindDory turns new words into lasting memory using smart spaced repetition and AI that adapts to how you learn.
Unlike Duolingo (streaks over retention) or Anki (powerful but painful), MindDory handles everything once you add a word.
● Flashcard practice - right time, every time
● AI stories - your words in context
● Memory cues - hooks for hard words
● Smart notifications (soon) - notifies you right before you forget

Hey Product Hunt! 👋¨
I built MindDory because I kept hitting the same wall learning languages: vocabulary just would not stick.
I tried Anki. The algorithm is great, but the setup killed my motivation, and honestly, it feels like a tool from 2006.
No modern UX, no mobile-first experience, just endless configuration before you can even start.
I tried Duolingo. Fun app, but it is really just a streak machine.
So I built MindDory. Here is how it works:
You add a word, and that is it. It can come from a photo of a book page, a lookup, or a conversation with Claude through our MCP server. Then MindDory gives you three ways to make it stick:
→ Flashcards with fixed, honest intervals: a hard word comes back in three days, an easy one in a week, and the second time you call it easy, the card retires. Nothing to configure.
→ AI stories: your words show up in context, in a short story built around them.
→ Keyword association: for a word that refuses to stick, MindDory writes a memory hook that connects it to something you already know.
No deck building. No configuration. No mascots and no guilt notifications.
🌍 Learn in 60+ languages; the Word Map and CEFR test cover eight.
I'm launching it because I want honest feedback: what's missing, what's confusing, what would make you actually use this every day.
Would love to hear from language learners especially 🙏
