Orvoca: Vocabulary Builder

Looked up the same English word again?
Give it a place in your own vocabulary.

Orvoca helps you build vocabulary from your reading. Save first, choose what to learn later, and come back for flashcards with spaced repetition.

SEND WORDS WITH SHARE
In an app that supports text sharing, select a word or sentence and choose Orvoca from the share menu. When you send a sentence, you can choose the word to save. Sharing support depends on the app you are reading in.

KEEP ONLY WHAT MATTERS
Your words arrive in Inbox, where you can check meanings and keep the ones you want to study. Not every unfamiliar word needs to become another task.

LEARN IN CONTEXT
When you include the original sentence, revisit where you met a word and choose the meaning that fits. Build vocabulary from your interests and the reading you already enjoy.

REVIEW AT THE NEXT STEP
Check what you remember with flashcards. Your answers help determine the next review time, so the words you selected become part of an ongoing review routine.

SEE YOUR PROGRESS IN ORBIT
View the learning state of your words in Orbit. See what you have collected through your reading and how those words are progressing.

CONTINUE FROM CHROME
Use the separate Orvoca Chrome extension on websites where you have granted access. Sign in with the same account to find those words in your mobile Inbox.

Orvoca is made for readers of English articles, novels, work documents, and papers. It is a companion to what you read elsewhere, not a built-in book library or a ready-made language course.

Your reading. Your words. Your pace.
