About Slova

Built by a Russian learner,
for Russian learners

Slova was born from the same frustration you're feeling. We studied the exact Reddit threads you've been reading. We know the A1-to-B1 wall because we hit it too.

The problem we couldn't ignore

We tried Duolingo. We tried Anki. We tried Clozemaster. We read every "what app should I use?" thread on r/russian. The answer was always the same: nothing teaches Russian vocabulary the way Russian actually works.

Russian isn't a language where you learn a word and you're done. Every noun has 12 forms. Every verb has two aspects. Knowing "книга" without knowing its declension table is knowing 8% of the word. No app addressed this.

So we built one.

What Slova is

Slova is a vocabulary trainer where every word is learned in its grammatical context. Nouns are drilled across all 6 cases. Verbs are trained with full conjugation tables. Grammar exercises use AI-generated sentences from your own word list.

It's not a full language course. It's not a replacement for a textbook. It's the missing piece - the tool that bridges the gap between knowing words and actually using them correctly.

What we believe

Principles behind Slova

01

Vocabulary and grammar are inseparable in Russian

A word without its forms is a dictionary entry, not knowledge. Slova teaches the word as a system - all forms, all contexts.

02

Production beats recognition

Tapping a multiple-choice answer feels good but teaches little. Typing the correct case form under pressure - that builds real recall.

03

Zero setup friction

You shouldn't need to spend hours building Anki decks before you can start learning. AI builds your word lists. You just train.

04

Built for Russian, not translated into Russian

Every feature exists because Russian requires it. Cases, aspects, stress marks, declension tables - these aren't add-ons. They're the foundation.
