## What is Mochi?

Mochi helps you learn Chinese the way you'll actually use it — not by memorizing isolated flashcards, but by reading, hearing, and speaking real Mandarin in context.

WHY MOCHI WORKS
Most apps stop at recognition: you can spot a word on a flashcard, but you still can't use it in a real sentence. Mochi's AI reads the sentences you write and listens to how you speak, then coaches your fluency — so each word goes from something you recognize to something you own.

A single flashcard gives you one meaning for a word, but real Chinese uses that same word in all kinds of ways. Mochi quizzes you on each word in fresh sentences and new contexts, so you learn to read and use it however it shows up.

ONE ESSAY, FOUR WAYS TO LEARN IT
• Read — Tap any word for pinyin and meaning. New vocabulary and chengyu are highlighted right in the story.
• Listen — Hear it in a native voice, word by word, with each one lighting up as it's spoken.
• Speak — Say it out loud. Each character lights up green the moment you nail it, with real-time pronunciation scoring.
• Write — Put words into your own sentences (coming soon) — the final step from recognition to fluency.

BUILT AROUND YOU
Pick your HSK level (HSK 1–6) and we'll match every essay to it — never too hard, never too easy. Choose topics you love, from food and travel to work, culture, tech, and hobbies, so you're always reading about things that interest you.

WHY IT STICKS
Every word travels from Saved to Mastered to Owned. You master a word by reading it, and master it again by using it — until it's fully yours.

Start your Chinese era. Read it. Hear it. Use it. The Chinese that sticks.
