Structured lessons
A real curriculum: units, lessons and prerequisites, gated by quizzes you actually have to pass. Every lesson teaches, drills and tests — there is no endless treadmill of disconnected exercises.
V1.0 submitted to App Review — iOS first
Learn a language. Properly.
Atlas pairs a structured curriculum with real spaced repetition, so what you study becomes what you remember. Starting with French, Mandarin and Hebrew.

The method
Built like a curriculum, not a slot machine.
Most apps optimise for time in app. Atlas optimises for what you can actually say, read and understand — and structures everything else around that.
Spaced repetition, built in
Every word has exactly one memory state, no matter how many exercises it appears in. Reviews land at 1, 3, 7, 14 and 30 days, and every answer is logged — so scheduling keeps getting smarter over time.
CEFR & HSK progression
Levels map to the standards examiners actually use — A1 to B2 for European languages, HSK for Mandarin. Your XP is your vocabulary: one word learned is one XP, and it never inflates.
- Placement test
- Start where you actually are, not at lesson one.
- Listening & typing drills
- Hear it, type it, match it — not just multiple choice.
- Honest streaks
- Streaks track days you learned, not days you opened the app.
- Progress that syncs
- Everything lives server-side. A new phone changes nothing.
The app
Designed for focus.
A black canvas, one exercise at a time, nothing fighting for your attention.
Roadmap
Building in the open.
Atlas is in active development. This is where it stands — updated as milestones land.

Accounts & progress sync
Secure sign-in with all progress stored server-side — a new phone never means starting over.
Curriculum engine & placement
Units, lessons and prerequisites, plus a placement test that starts you where you actually are.
Lesson player
Teaching cards, multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank, matching, and listen-and-type exercises.
Vocabulary-first progress
XP equals words learned. Levels and streaks are computed from real knowledge, not time in app.
Spaced-repetition reviews
A daily review queue on the 1·3·7·14·30-day ladder, with every answer logged for smarter scheduling.
In development
100-day curriculum
Authoring the course as a hundred numbered days, each one a short set of lessons that builds on the last.
5-day curriculum navigation
Grouping the path into five-day sections, so the course stays readable as the number of days grows.
Spanish
A fourth language alongside French, Mandarin and Hebrew.
Expanded developer & testing tools
Internal tooling for exercising content and progression, kept out of release builds.
Planned
Japanese
A fifth language, once the current set is complete.
200-day curriculum across 5 languages
Extending the day-by-day path to two hundred days in every language.
Additional lesson types
More exercise formats beyond the ones the lesson player runs today.
Native-speaker audio
Recorded pronunciation for every word and phrase in the curriculum.
More languages
The engine is content-driven — adding a language is authoring, not engineering.
