The problem it solves

You want to keep learning Japanese with real, current material, not just textbook exercises, but finding an article at the right difficulty level and breaking down the vocabulary and grammar yourself takes more time than you have most days.

Who it fits

Japanese language learners who want daily practice with real news content.

How it works

  1. Every day at your chosen time, the automation runs
  2. It fetches a real news article from NHK Easy News
  3. AI classifies the article's difficulty level and extracts key vocabulary and verb conjugations
  4. It translates the full article into your native language and includes study recommendations
  5. You receive a formatted email with the lesson ready to read
What you get

Daily practice you actually receive

You get a new Japanese news lesson in your inbox every day, broken down with vocabulary and grammar to help you learn.

What you get

A daily email lesson built from a real Japanese news article, with vocabulary, grammar notes, and a translation.

What you need

An OpenAI API key and a Gmail account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
