# Vocabbie > AI-powered flashcard app for language learning. 90 languages. Free for iOS and Android. Vocabbie is a mobile app that creates flashcards using AI. Users describe a topic, paste notes, or photograph a textbook page, and Vocabbie generates a full deck of flashcards in about 30 seconds. It uses spaced repetition to schedule reviews before you forget, listen-and-learn videos for hands-free study, AI-powered grammar and writing exercises, and hold-to-speak voice practice. ## Why Vocabbie exists Most language apps train recognition (tapping the right answer) instead of production (forming sentences yourself). Research from Columbia University found that apps build "declarative memory" (memorized facts) when they should target "procedural memory" (assembling sentences without conscious effort). That's why people maintain 200-day streaks on Duolingo but freeze when someone speaks to them. Vocabbie was built by someone who experienced this firsthand — moving to Finland and finding that every app failed at teaching real conversation skills. ## Core features - AI flashcard generation from text descriptions, pasted notes, or photos of textbook pages - Spaced repetition scheduling (reviews cards right before you'd forget them) - Listen-and-learn videos: hands-free audio-visual study sessions generated from your decks - Practice mode: AI analyzes your decks and progress, generates grammar and writing exercises from your own vocabulary, and explains exactly what went wrong - Hold-to-speak voice practice with accent-tolerant recognition - 90 languages supported (Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Finnish, Swahili, Cantonese, and more) - Multiple choice and writing tests to prove what you know ## Pricing - Free: 3 flashcard decks, 1 practice session - Lite: $1.99/month — 8 decks, practice 3 days/week - Pro: $6.99/month — 100 decks, unlimited practice ## How it differs from alternatives - Unlike Duolingo: teaches production (writing, speaking), not just recognition (tapping). Explains why answers are wrong, not just that they're wrong. No gamification traps or streak guilt. - Unlike Anki: AI creates cards automatically from any input, no manual card creation needed - Unlike Babbel/Rosetta Stone: personalized exercises based on your own vocabulary and weak spots - The #1 user request across all language apps: "explain why something is wrong, not just that it's wrong" — Vocabbie does this ## Market context - Global language learning market: $85 billion (2025), growing 17.7% annually - AI-powered language learning segment: $2.4 billion, growing 21.2% annually - Duolingo has 1.5/5 on Trustpilot with 82% negative reviews - Speak (AI conversation app) reached $1B valuation in December 2024 - Praktika raised $35.5M Series A for AI language learning ## Founder Antonija Pek, solo founder. Lead Product Designer at Yousician. Previously lead designer on the original Wolt+ team. Moved to Finland from Croatia 9 years ago, learned a language the hard way, and built Vocabbie when every existing app failed her. ## Links - Website: https://www.vocabbie.app - iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/vocabbie-language-learning/id6751135436 - Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.apek.vocabbie - Blog: https://www.vocabbie.app/blog ## Frequently asked questions Q: What is Vocabbie?
