Question 1

Is IELTS Anvil different from Anki or Quizlet?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Anki and Quizlet are generic tools where you build the content yourself. IELTS Anvil comes with 2,600+ words selected from real Cambridge IELTS exam texts (Cambridge 13–21), 28 drill modules built around actual IELTS question types, and spaced repetition that works across vocabulary and skills together.

Question 2

Is IELTS Anvil for Academic or General Training?

Accepted Answer

IELTS Anvil currently focuses on IELTS Academic. General Training support is on the roadmap.

Question 3

Do I need to pay to start using IELTS Anvil?

Accepted Answer

No. The core experience is completely free — vocabulary practice, spaced repetition, skills drills, and worked examples. No credit card required, no trial period.

Question 4

Will IELTS Anvil guarantee my band score?

Accepted Answer

No tool can guarantee a score. What IELTS Anvil guarantees is that everything you practise traces back to what real IELTS exams actually test — not generic content, not guesswork.

Question 5

Who built IELTS Anvil?

Accepted Answer

IELTS Anvil is built by Faction9, an independent developer who analysed Cambridge IELTS books 13 through 21 to build a preparation tool based on evidence, not assumptions.
