The two modes
Every question you ask uses one of two modes. You choose with the toggle below the input box.
Paste any phrase, sentence, idiom, or grammar pattern you don't fully understand. Your tutor explains what it means, why natives say it, and how it compares to your language.
Paste anything you've written — an email, a message, a sentence you're unsure about. Your tutor corrects it, explains exactly what was wrong, and shows why your language makes that mistake feel natural.
How to ask a better question
The more context you give, the more useful the explanation.
Use the context selector. Choosing "Work email", "Social media", or "Film/TV" tells your tutor where you saw the phrase. The same phrase means different things in different situations.
Include the surrounding sentence if you have it. "What does 'fair enough' mean?" is good. "Someone said 'fair enough' when I pushed back in a meeting — was that dismissive?" is better.
Ask in your own language if it's clearer. You don't need to ask in English. Ask in Spanish, Arabic, Mandarin — whatever is most natural. Your tutor understands and responds accordingly.
Ask about one thing at a time. One focused question gets a sharper explanation than three mixed together.
Image uploads
On Pro and Unlimited plans, you can take a screenshot of any text and upload it directly. Useful when you can't easily copy text — a photo of a sign, a screenshot from an app, a picture of a document.
Your tutor reads the image, extracts the English, and explains it as if you had typed it yourself.
Your review queue
Every explanation is automatically saved. Three days after you first ask something, it comes back for review. Reading it again at that point — just before you'd normally forget it — is one of the most effective ways to move something into long-term memory.
When you have items due for review, a card appears at the top of your tutor screen. Work through them when you have a few minutes.
Dismiss when you understand it clearly.
Snooze if you need more time — it will come back again.
Your library
Everything you've ever asked is saved automatically in your library. You never need to copy or export anything.
From the library you can search by keyword, filter by topic or date, and bookmark explanations you want to find quickly again. Use it to look back at something before a meeting, a trip, or an exam.
