About Active Dictionary

Active Dictionary is a web app for adults learning English at B1 level and above. Learners use articles, PDFs and captioned videos to look up words and phrases in context, save them with their source, and practise them through spaced repetition, speaking and writing. The public library is available without registration. Personal practice requires an account, and AI use has limits under the free plan. Video lessons require captions, and PDF support depends on the document. The product has free and paid plans.
