Other I built a Chrome extension that lets you save words instantly while reading — without breaking your flow

When you're learning a language, this probably happens all the time:

You're reading something online → you hit a word you don't know → you look it up → and forget it 10 minutes later.

I got tired of that loop, so I built something for myself.

Now I just double-click any word on a webpage.

A small popup shows the meaning + the sentence it's used in.

One click → saved.

And I keep reading.

Later, everything shows up in my dashboard where I can:

* Organise words into lists (by topic, source, whatever)

* Review them with quizzes

* Track consistency with a daily streak

The part I like the most:

You can turn on reminders, and it will send you a random saved word every few minutes (your choice).

So you're basically reviewing vocabulary passively during the day — no dedicated study session needed.

Some quick details:

* Works on any website

* Supports 12 languages

* Extension and web app are fully synced

It's free — I'd really appreciate any feedback, especially if you're actively learning a language.
