Our verdict on Cadence

Cadence is a language-learning app for independent learners building vocabulary for personal study, travel, or exams such as JLPT and DELE. Its central method is FSRS spaced repetition: learners study cards and decks, with support for scripts and diacritics. Rather than framing learning around a broad sequence of lessons, Cadence puts review at the center and adds tools for audio, grammar, and creating study material. It is a fit for learners who want to shape their own practice and revisit vocabulary over time.

The free plan includes FSRS scheduling, unlimited cards and decks, text-to-speech audio, real-time synchronization, community decks, deck import, and full open export. Cadence Plus costs $6 per month, billed monthly. It adds a native-speaker audio library, pronunciation scoring and feedback, premium professionally made decks, advanced retention statistics, and unlimited AI card generation. That makes the free tier useful for a self-directed card workflow, while Plus concentrates its paid value on richer audio, speaking feedback, statistics, and generated material. Learners who mainly need spaced review can start without a subscription; those wanting the additional audio and scoring should weigh the monthly cost.

Beyond review, Cadence supports automatically generated cards with definitions and examples, conjugation and grammar card types, and sentence mining from articles or subtitle files. Native-speaker audio is complemented by a text-to-speech fallback, and pronunciation recording is scored through speech recognition. Offline-first study, sync across web, iOS, and Android, and full export give learners options for studying across devices and taking their data out. Choose Cadence if flashcards and vocabulary review suit your learning style, especially if you value customizable materials. Learners looking for a lesson-led course structure may prefer an app whose core is organized around guided lessons instead.
