AiDict is an AI-powered dictionary designed to streamline language learning by providing comprehensive word and phrase explanations instantly. Unlike traditional dictionaries that require searching multiple sources manually, AiDict consolidates relevant information automatically and integrates seamlessly into your workflow.
While AI chatbots can provide detailed word explanations, they require switching contexts, manual copying, and additional time. AiDict eliminates these friction points, offering:
- One-click word lookup: Get detailed word meanings, synonyms, antonyms, collocations, example sentences, and etymology in one place.
- Seamless Anki Integration: Automatically format and export word explanations to Anki for efficient spaced repetition learning.
- AI-powered insights: Uses AI models in combination with trusted dictionaries to provide the most accurate and comprehensive results.
AiDict is a personal open-source project aimed at optimizing the English learning experience by reducing time-consuming actions. It is not designed for commercial purposes but rather to address a personal need. No one is allowed to use this project for commercial purposes.
