PROGRIT Releases Free English Vocabulary App 'ProWords'

PROGRIT Inc. (Headquarters: Hamamatsucho, Minato-ku, Tokyo; President: Shogo Okada; Securities Code: 9560), an English learning platform, is pleased to announce the release of the English vocabulary learning app 'ProWords' as a free app for iOS and Android on April 3, 2026. Based on the English coaching expertise accumulated by PROGRIT, this app will support the improvement of business professionals' English skills by fixing vocabulary in their minds not just to the level of 'memorized,' but to the level of being 'instantly usable.'

■ Development Background

In English learning, vocabulary is the foundation of everything. Whether it's listening, speaking, or taking qualification exams like the TOEIC, you cannot fully demonstrate your true abilities without a solid database of vocabulary.

Currently, there are many learning services available to strengthen vocabulary. However, the reality is that typical English vocabulary learning centers around 'memorizing meanings,' which alone is insufficient for mastering English in actual business situations.

Since our founding in 2016, we have supported the English learning of over 25,000 individuals through our English coaching service 'PROGRIT.' In supporting numerous learners, what we emphasize in vocabulary learning is 'not just rote memorization, but training the rapid response skills required for practical use.'

To realize this learning approach within an app and deliver optimal vocabulary training not only to those who need English for business but also to working adults and students aiming to improve their scores for job hunting, career changes, or promotions, we have developed the English vocabulary learning app 'ProWords.'

■ 4 Key Features of the English Vocabulary App 'ProWords'

< Rapid Response Training >
Measures retention considering response speed with a 3-level evaluation: 'Understood instantly', 'Understood', and 'Did not understand'. By training rapid response—not just right or wrong, but 'how quickly you understand'—it fosters vocabulary skills that can be used immediately in business settings.

< Customized Review >
Automatically calculates the optimal review span based on the evaluation of your answer speed and the pattern of memory fading over time (the forgetting curve). This allows you to acquire English vocabulary efficiently.
