Every morning, a story from French history or a classic, in cards that move. A question the next day so it sticks. In a month, you are the one people listen to.
Works with no signal
On a plane, in the subway, on a train, in a dead zone: today’s lesson is already on your phone.
The change
One lesson a day, a question the next, and it stays.
You know why Vercingetorix lost Alesia. And you can tell the story.
You can spot an alexandrine, and name who wrote it.
At dinner, you are the one people listen to. Your nugget has grown with you.
Your plan is two minutes away.

Joan of Arc before her judges: the first 3 cards, exactly as the app shows them.
Rouen, 9 January 1431. Dozens of assessors on the benches. Facing them, alone, a girl of nineteen. Her judges are not the English: the Church is prosecuting her for heresy. The point — to prove the coronation at Reims was a heretic’s doing.

Build my planIn practice
Every lesson starts from a brief and from period sources (Wikisource, Gallica, Persée, museums), is written, then checked by a human who verifies every date and every quote. The sources sit under each lesson.
Yes. The daily lesson and the review are loaded in advance and work with no signal; your progress syncs when the network comes back.
Your streak has freezes: one missed day does not wipe it. And the review picks up where you left off, with nothing to catch up on.
From secondary school, with a parent opening the account: five minutes a day of true, sourced things, with no adverts and no social feed. They scroll, they learn.
The iOS and Android apps arrive late September. What you see here is the app as it will be.
