Hey Product Hunt,

You look a word up on Google or ChatGPT, understand it, and a week later it's gone. That's why I built Recabulary.

How it works. Look the word up on recabulary.app. It's saved to your board and comes back for review on day 2, 5, 12, 30 and 60. Each time, you write what it means and get a recall score. Five reviews, and the word is yours for life.

What's free. Everything. It runs in your browser; save it to your Home Screen and it works like an app. No ads, no clutter.

It asks for one small change in habit: looking words up here first. The payoff is many times bigger.

I'd love your questions, suggestions and feedback.

Thanks,
Amarjit

P.S. On the roadmap: Sending words to Recabulary from anywhere, including your AI chat assistant through an MCP plugin.

Why does Recabulary exist?

The most common way to look up the meaning of a word is probably to search for it on Google or ask an AI assistant. And there's absolutely nothing wrong with either approach. Except for one thing: neither approach necessarily helps you build lasting memory.

If you're anything like me, you'll probably find yourself looking up the same word again after a few weeks. Or, you might struggle to use it naturally in your writing or everyday communication. That's exactly the problem Recabulary aims to solve.
Recabulary brings each word back at the right moment and gets you using it in your own sentences, so it sticks.
