After years of traveling to Japan, I found myself craving those small cultural moments back home: the sound of temple bells, seasonal haikus, morning radio snippets.

Gachari gives you one authentic piece of Japanese culture daily in 30 seconds. No overwhelming content, just a small cultural vitamin.

21 users so far with 30% coming back daily. The progressive onboarding (3 free draws) seems to hook people without overwhelming them.
