In the past I’ve mostly done Anki for Chinese and Japanese but am looking for something else since I’ve fallen off Anki.

For Chinese I really need a service that I can read and OCR words to easily identify in a dictionary. I’m at a high intermediate or low advanced level but looking up words is annoying.

For Japanese I just need input for an intermediate level.

  • Clozemaster?
  • Italki?

Listing services I’ve found

  • Clozemaster (but has a bad model now)
  • tutor with something like italki
  • Anki
  • busuu
  • librelingo

Yea, you have to see your budget too. Chinese and Japanese are popular enough, so i think there should be similar free readers. Link below is LUTE, not sure of chinese, jap support. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eqCQnZQCfow
