Knospe — gentle, level-aware language learning
Knospe is an adaptive language-learning app that meets you at your level. Unlike a raw AI chat, it grades every sentence to your CEFR level (A1–C2), remembers the words you struggle with using spaced repetition, and never nags — passive streaks, no shame.
Languages you can learn
German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch and Croatian, with more on the way.
What makes it different
- Comprehensible input graded to your level — no drowning in frontier-model overshoot.
- Roleplay scenarios with tap-to-reveal translations and an “other ways to say it” grammar ladder.
- Spaced-repetition vocabulary that remembers your gaps between sessions.
- German-first, built for European learners; calm, anti-gamified design.
Knospe runs in your browser as a Progressive Web App. Please enable JavaScript to use it, or visit knospe.app.
Frequently asked questions
Which languages can I learn with Knospe?
German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch and Croatian, with more languages being added. The interface is available in German and English.
How is Knospe different from a chatbot like ChatGPT?
A raw AI chat overshoots beginners and forgets you between sessions. Knospe grades every sentence to your CEFR level (A1–C2) so you always understand, and it remembers the words you struggle with using spaced repetition.
Is Knospe free?
Yes, Knospe is free to use in your browser. It runs as a Progressive Web App, so there is nothing to install.
Does Knospe work offline?
Yes. Knospe is an offline-first Progressive Web App, so once a language pack has loaded you can keep learning without an internet connection.
Does Knospe use streaks and gamification?
No nagging and no shame. Streaks are passive — Knospe records what you did and never punishes a gap. The design is calm and anti-gamified by intent.
