A glance, not a chore

Argot is built for iPhone and iPad. The Lock Screen pair sits beneath the clock, the Home Screen widget holds the full definition, and the app itself is a step away.

Seven tracks

Choose the vocabulary of your field. Each track is a curated corpus of the terms practitioners actually use.

Written with care

Every definition is precise and serious, the kind of phrasing you can carry into a memo, a brief, or a meeting. Argot is an editorial reference, not a quiz app: there are no points, no streaks, and nothing to grind. Just the right word, explained well.
