## What is Hiroi?

Every app can teach you a word. Only Hiroi can tell you when it came back.

Hiroi listens to the conversations you're already in — the meeting, the call, the chat over lunch — and translates them live across Japanese, English, and Chinese. The phrases worth keeping become a study deck. Then the part nothing else does: when a phrase you studied turns up again in a real conversation, Hiroi quietly marks it gold.

That's not a quiz score. That's proof the language is yours now.

IT COMES BACK — AND YOU'LL KNOW
Free translation understands the moment and forgets it. Hiroi remembers what you kept, listens for it, and tells you the day it returns. The words that keep coming back move to the front of your practice — because those are the words your life is actually made of.

IT LEARNS YOUR VOICE, NOT A TEXTBOOK'S
Every phrase you save is fed back into how Hiroi listens. The more you study, the better it hears YOUR vocabulary — your clients, your industry, your town.

WORDS THAT SETTLE, AND STOP ASKING
Once a word has come back to you in real life and you know it cold, Hiroi stops testing it. Your life is the review now. Your deck gets finished, not endless.

CATCH IT LIVE
Japanese, English, and Chinese in one live transcript — everything in your language. Face-to-face mode splits the screen for two people, two languages.

KEEP WHAT MATTERED
Save a phrase with a tap. Each card carries an AI explanation, a hand-drawn scene, and the moment it came from — so the word always remembers its context.

STUDY YOUR OWN LIFE
Saved phrases enter a spaced-repetition deck (FSRS), scheduled for the moment you're about to forget. You're not memorizing a stranger's textbook — you're studying your own meetings, your own town, your own life.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Audio is never recorded — it's understood as it streams and let go. Your transcripts, your phrases, and your deck are stored only on your device, never on our servers.

START FREE
Your first hour of live translation is free — no account needed. After that, two simple ways to keep going: hour packs that never expire, or 月帳, the monthly membership (3-day free trial) — 5 hours each month plus unlimited AI explanations, a natural shadowing voice with pitch scoring, weekly recap, and iCloud sync.

Hiroi (拾い) — to pick up what's worth keeping. The words you barely caught today become the language you carry next time.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.6 — 2026-08-17

Two corrections, both in your favour.

Face-to-Face does not cost double. The app had been saying it uses your minutes at 2× — it doesn't, and hasn't since July, when the two streams became one. Same rate as Listen.

And the sharing screen is now precise about what a share link carries: text only. Your audio is never sent through it.

### 1.0.5 — 2026-08-07

A quiet maintenance release: small fixes under the hood, and Hiroi now waits until it has genuinely been useful before ever asking what you think of it.

Nothing new to learn — everything is where you left it.

### 1.0.4 — 2026-07-22

The wrap-up after each conversation now notices when words from your past meetings come back — and lets you keep them with one tap, even in meetings where you saved nothing.

A free monthly letter: on the 1st, Hiroi quietly recaps what last month's conversations left you. No streaks, no pressure — just what happened.

Clearer moments with money: when your free hour ends, Hiroi now says so plainly and shows exactly what topping up means. Hours you buy never expire.

A gentler start: after the welcome tour you land ready to translate, and if there's no meeting today, Hiroi shows how to try it with any video or show in your languages.

Plus stability improvements.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-07-18

Hiroi now helps the words stay.

• A quieter study session — we show the real size of today's review, never a scary backlog.
• Words you've truly mastered settle and leave the study queue, so a growing deck never feels like a chore.
• "The words your conversations keep saying" — surfaced on-device from your own transcripts, so you can keep the ones that matter.
• Milestones along the way as your collection grows, and a free monthly letter about the words that actually came back to you.

No streaks, no guilt — just the words your real life keeps using.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-07-15

NEW — 月帳, the monthly membership (3-day free trial): 5 hours of live translation each month, plus unlimited AI explanations, weekly recap, and iCloud deck sync.
Members' shadowing leveled up: a natural model voice to imitate, and on-device pitch scoring that shows exactly which syllables matched.
Hour packs are unchanged — hours you buy never expire.
Also: sessions left running in the background now stop themselves, and interrupted sessions are billed fairly.
