The basics
What is Assist With Languages?
A place where your AI keeps what you know in a language, how you learned it, and what comes next. Your AI teaches and practices with you; Languages remembers, plays the activities your AI makes, and keeps your progress so any AI can pick up where you left off.
Does Languages teach me?
No. Your AI teaches. Languages is its memory of you and the place where its quizzes, decks, and readings become things you can actually use.
My AI is already good at languages. Why would I need this?
It is good, often remarkable. But each conversation starts fresh. It doesn't know which words you've mastered, which mistakes you keep making, or the plan you agreed on last month. Languages gives it that memory, so every session builds on the last one.
Which languages does it support?
Any language, including regional varieties, older forms, and scripts that read right to left. Your AI does the teaching, so the range is as wide as your AI's. Languages is built for many writing systems from day one.
Is this a course or an app like the ones with streaks?
Neither. There's no fixed curriculum and no streak to lose. You and your AI choose the method, and the site keeps an honest record of what you can do.
How much does it cost?
Nothing right now. Languages is in early use with a few friends and family. Some audio features are for Pro members, who are added by an admin.
How do I get help?
Email support@assistwithlife.com. If your storage fills up, email us there and we can give you more room.
Your AI
Which AI do I need?
Any AI app that can connect to a remote MCP server can use Languages' tools. The Connect page explains how to add the connection. Without a connection, you can still use the site directly and copy context into any AI.
What can my AI do here, and how do I limit it?
When you connect your AI, it gets full access to your Languages record from the start: it can read, save, organise, archive and restore your words, lists, lessons, sessions and Queue, including tools we add later, with no end date. You can limit it any time: in Settings → AI, or just ask your AI to limit itself (for example, “only read, don’t change anything” or “stop until Friday”). Your AI can narrow its own access but never widen it. Only you can give access back. It never permanently deletes anything or spends money for you.
How do Queue requests and AI suggestions differ?
Requests you ask your AI to add are ordinary Queue items. Its own ideas are AI suggestions, hidden by default in the Queue until you accept or dismiss them. Only you can accept or dismiss; your AI may withdraw its own untouched suggestion. Needs your input is a flag on a request, never a work state. Nothing runs automatically.
What if I switch to a different AI?
Your languages, lessons, lists, evidence, and recordings stay here. Connect the new AI and it reads the same record and continues.
Can I tell my AI how to talk to me?
Yes. Your AI Interaction Profile says how you want to be corrected, how hard to be pushed, and how much to explain. You write it, often with your AI's help. Languages stores it word for word and gives it to every AI you connect.
Does the site run its own AI?
No teaching AI of its own. Your AI does the thinking, teaching, and assessing. Languages checks simple answers like a flashcard or quiz, and Pro members can create saved audio, always labelled as generated.
Learning and progress
Will it tell me my level?
It shows your ability skill by skill with the evidence behind it. It can record a formal level you've earned, with its framework and date. It does not certify fluency.
If I get a word right once, have I learned it?
One correct answer records a checked result. A flashcard rating records your own report for that skill. Neither automatically changes what the site says you know; you and your AI make explicit assessments using the history.
Which learning method does it use?
Whichever you and your AI choose. Your AI can teach in the style of one of seven professors, a method you describe, or your own mix. The site doesn't pick one for you.
Can my AI change what the site says I know?
It can save evidence and record assessments with a reason. You see every change, who made it, and why, and you can correct it.
What happens if I stop for months?
Nothing is lost and nothing is punished. When you return, your AI sees what faded and what stayed, and plans from there.
Can I learn more than one language?
Yes. Each language gets its own words, lists, lessons, and history.
Reading, writing, and translation
Can I use it just for reading?
Yes. Reading works without a learning plan, and words you look up or read are not counted as learned unless you choose to study them.
Can I read a book side by side with a translation?
Yes. The Reader shows each passage of the original with its translation alongside it, or beneath it on smaller screens, with audio where available, and remembers your place.
Can I trust the translations?
Translations come from your AI, and they're labelled that way. For legal, medical, immigration, or safety-critical documents, have a qualified human translator check the result.
Voice and pronunciation
Can I practice speaking?
Every word and card has a play button using your device's own voice, and you can record yourself saying a word and keep it with that word. Your AI can listen to your recordings and suggest what to work on.
Is my accent being judged?
No accent is treated as the correct one. You choose the variety you're aiming for, and feedback says what it compared against and how sure it is.
Privacy and your data
Who can see my recordings and writing?
Only you and the AI apps you connect. Everything is private by default. Nothing is shared unless you share it on purpose.
Can I export or delete everything?
Not yet. You can export a lesson, and you can archive words, lists, readings and other records, but there is no whole-account export or permanent deletion yet. When deletion arrives it will always be your action, never your AI's.
