Learn New Words While You
Read the Web
Save words as you read and meet them again with Reading Assist on supported articles. Look up meanings without leaving the page.
Learning Vocabulary is Broken.
You look a word up, you understand it for a moment, and then you forget it. Traditional methods take words out of their natural environment, making them hard to remember.
Passive Learning
Looking up definitions gives you momentary understanding, but it does not stick.
Lack of Context
Flashcard apps remove words from the rich context that gives them meaning.
Extra Effort
You have to keep switching between what you are reading and a dictionary app.
How It Works
Three simple steps to turn your reading into lasting retention
Select and Save
Double-click any word to get AI-powered meanings, translations, and context. Add it to your personal word list with one click.
Read articles
WordMate highlights and subtly swaps your target words into articles you are already reading with no app switching.
Lock It In
Review your saved words and say which ones you remember. Your feedback helps schedule future reviews.
Why WordMate Works Better
Traditional methods take words out of context. WordMate keeps you in the flow.
No Context Loss
Meanings appear exactly where you read with no switching to dictionaries or breaking your focus.
Zero Friction
Keep reading on supported articles. Pause Reading Assist or turn it off for a site.
Active Recall
Give feedback during reviews so WordMate can schedule when to practice each word again.
Try a sample article
Install the extension and open a short reading sample with prepared Reading Assist examples.
The examples use sample words, not your personal vocabulary, and do not count as reviews. On other websites, Reading Assist uses your words and settings.
