おこみ · Okomi
Japanese that sticks, in small daily steps.
Okomi is a calm study companion. Warm-ups catch words before they fade, conversations teach you how people actually speak, and every sentence breaks down into pieces a beginner can understand.
Your first eight conversations are free · no flashcard decks to manage

How it works
Pick a situation. Everything else follows.
ONE
Choose what you need to handle
Checking into a hotel, ordering ramen, a toothache that can't wait, a first meeting at work. You start from the thing you want to do, not from chapter one.
TWO
Learn only what that needs
The kana, the words, the grammar and the politeness that scene actually uses — taught just before you need them, and never as homework.
THREE
Have the conversation
Then have it: tap the words, hear it back in a real voice, and get corrected the way a good teacher corrects — in flow, kindly, and only where it matters.
Why Okomi
Built for memory,
not for streaks.
Most apps reward opening the app. Okomi rewards remembering — every screen is designed around how memory actually works. There is no streak to protect and nothing to lose by taking a day off.
Review that finds you
Spaced repetition timed to when you actually forget — not an arbitrary deck to keep on top of.
Native audio everywhere
Every word and every line of dialogue. Tap to hear it as many times as you need — and hear your own lines in a second voice, so a turn sounds like a turn.
Four real-life tracks
Survival, Daily Life, Social, Work — the Japanese you'll use, in the order you'll meet it.
Beginner-proof grammar
No jargon. Sentences break into pieces, each one saying what it is and what it's doing there — with the reading over every kanji.
Tracks
Learn the Japanese you'll use
Survival
Airports, konbini, getting lost gracefully.
Daily Life
Errands, small talk, the everyday rhythm.
Work
Meetings, email politeness, office small talk.
