Keeping Yki Testi Alive & Growing

Hi everyone! / Hei kaikille!

My name is Tony, and I am the creator of this project.

When I started Yki Testi, my goal was to build a tool that truly helps people pass the YKI exam and feel at home in Finland. I’m thrilled to see the site growing so fast! However, this success has brought a challenge: I’ve reached the limits of free hosting, and I now have to pay to keep the servers running.

To keep the project alive and make it the best resource for Finnish learners, I am introducing a one-time payment for 1-year full access.

The cost is just 20€ for the entire year.

This isn't just to cover hosting bills. Your support will allow me to roll out powerful new features that are already in the works:

• Audio Dialogues: I’m adding voiced dialogues for every tag/topic so you can practice your listening skills effectively.
• Smart Wordlist (Real-World Analysis): I am developing a script that analyzes actual Finnish websites—news, sports clubs, and marketplace listings—to identify the most frequently used words.
• The Result: You’ll get a list of 'real' vocabulary. For example, learn the top 500 words to understand 60% of common Finnish, or the top 1000 to reach 80% comprehension.
• YKI Practice Sets: I will be creating new YKI-style answer options based specifically on this real-world vocabulary.

A large portion of the basic materials will remain free so that everyone can start their journey. But the Full Access version will help you save hundreds of hours by focusing only on the words that actually matter.

Thank you for your support and understanding! Onnea kokeeseen!
