About

Weyd Language

Read full description

Weyd Language is your AI language coach — built to accelerate acquisition, not just track time. Most language apps measure streaks. Weyd measures velocity. HOW IT WORKS Chat with your coach to build a personalized plan based on your goal, level, and schedule. Log your study sessions — from any app, class, or resource. Your coach adapts the plan weekly based on what's actually working. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT Your coach identifies the single constraint holding back your progress — whether that's speaking output, study consistency, or ambiguity tolerance — and focuses the week on removing it. BUILT FOR SERIOUS LEARNERS • Supports Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese (Brazil & Europe), Japanese, and English • Connects with Duolingo, Anki, LingQ, WaniKani, Bunpro, Babbel, Pimsleur, and YouTube • CEFR-aligned progress tracking (A1–C2) • Apple Watch complications for daily streaks and session goals • Works alongside any method, tutor, or program you already use LOG ANYTHING No special equipment or integrations required. Log a conversation, a podcast, a grammar drill, a lesson — anything. Weyd tracks it and adjusts your plan accordingly. ADAPTIVE PLAN Your coach generates a weekly plan with specific activities, durations, and resources. Plans adjust automatically when your pace or priorities shift. No rigid programs. Weyd doesn't replace your teacher or your apps. It coordinates everything into a single adaptive plan — and tells you what to do next.
