Built for German exam candidates

The words that get you through the exam.

German exams reward the words you can produce on the spot — not just the ones you recognize. Worio makes them stick, A1 to C2.

“My words are scattered across notebooks, screenshots and tabs.”

One tap, one vocabulary bank

Save a word from your course book, a Modelltest, DW news or last night's series — it all lands in one place you actually revisit.

“I recognise words I can't produce when it counts.”

Practice recall, not recognition

Cloze & retrieval drills the exact skill Schreiben and Sprechen are graded on — producing the word, not just spotting it.

“I'm never sure I'm studying the right words.”

The right words for your level, first

Frequency-first across A1–C2 puts the words most likely to appear at your level up top — the strongest predictor of recall.

Thuc Hien Nguyen · Founder, WorioGermany
