English RankUp was born to build an app that's good at all of it.

One builder and one stubborn belief: a English-learning app can be good at all of it — vocab, audio, grammar and the roadmap, all in one place.

Why English RankUp exists

I tried a lot of apps. And wanted one that's good at all of it.

Some apps are great at flashcards, others shine at pronunciation or grammar. Each tool is good at one thing, so I kept using several at once and still felt something was missing.

English RankUp brings it all into one place and tries to do each part well: stress-IPA vocab, crisp audio, natural examples, a smart roadmap, an AI tutor and a tidy interface. Every feature solves a real learning need.

  • IPA that doesn't show word stress
    IPA color-coded by the 5 word stress
  • Robotic audio that gets sounds wrong
    Crisp audio, native voices for A1–B1
  • Explanations stiffly translated from English
    Explanations in your language, with relevant examples
  • Ads cutting in, breaking focus
    Every feature must make you learn faster
  • Rote learning with no clear roadmap
    A personalized A1–C2 roadmap + SRS
Principles

Three things we won't compromise on

01

Science, not gut feeling

Every design decision is grounded in memory science (SRS, SuperMemo, spaced repetition). No 'learn it all in 7 days' gimmicks.

02

Respect for your time

Every feature has to answer: 'does this help the user learn faster?' If not, it gets cut. No cluttered UI, no needless features.

03

Beautiful is the baseline, not a bonus

A daily learning app has to be pleasant to look at to stick with. Every pixel has a reason — typography, motion, sound — all carefully tuned.

Roadmap

From September 2025 to now

No fundraising, no loud marketing — just step by step building a decent product. Here are the milestones English RankUp has reached.

    The beginning

    After self-studying through many tools, English RankUp started from one question: how do you bring everything you need into one app that's good at all of it? Interviewed learners and settled on a product philosophy.
