Sync that starts with export
Import your local extension JSON, normalize it into a versioned Cloud snapshot, and keep the schema compatible with existing progress as you sync to your account.
Optional hosted companion
Local-first by default. Cloud when it actually helps.
AnimeVocab Cloud adds account-backed sync, AI explanations from anime scenes, notebooks, streaks, and leaderboards without taking away the free extension.
Why hosted exists
- Chrome review should not be the only distribution path.
- AI usage needs account-level caps and cost controls.
- Notebooks and leaderboards need identity and sync.
- Local progress should remain exportable and user-owned.
AI from the scene
Explanations should attach to the exact word, line, and anime moment: memory hooks, tone notes, and review sentences, not generic chatbot practice.
Streaks and challenges
Weekly anime challenges, streaks, and opt-in leaderboards give learners momentum while preserving private local-only mode.
AnimeVocab Pro
Cloud sync, AI coach, and social features — when you want them
Pro pays for hosted transcription and Cloud compute. The extension stays free forever; accounts are optional until sync or AI actually help you.
