I'm around a C1 level in French and am just starting to learn Polish. The audio pronunciations are a great feature here and (at least in French, where I can judge it) the accents are quite good. I can see this being quite useful for my Polish work for learning some of the basics.
I spent 10 minutes or so playing around with this and it is impressive. I've also built a couple of small side projects around language learning out of frustration with Duolingo.

I would like to see more language support. For me, I'd like to study Korean
The UX around card navigation needs some work. It took me a long time to figure out that after I chose a smiley face, that I was moving to a new card. This was especially true if the next card is similar to a previous card.
oh yeah for improvement I think you can add shortcut keyboard so I don't need to hover around my mouse or bigger accessible button outside card area

Things the webpage should answer: - If it's free, like you say here, that it's free. - What languages does it work for? - What's the process to start? Things I'm curious about: - Is this intended to be a business? How do we get surprised by this costing something or disappearing in the future? - Can it work in the opposite direction, e.g. to help students that speak Chinese pick up targeted English vocabulary based o…
The bottom says: Ricotta developed by Affineur Ventures
Their website says:

When I google that phrase it’s from an “Affinity Ventures” which is unrelated.
Affineur Ventures seems to just be a cheese themed container (hence ricotta). The website just redirects to a login screen for something called “holey triangle” https://affineur.io/

That’s something that’s been nice about Anki. As long as I’ve got my laptop I can do reviews, even if I don’t have a connection or the internet is awful or costs money (flights, etc). It runs on everything too which has worked nicely on the Linux ultraportable I’ve dedicated to study purposes.
