People with cochlear implants often require extensive training to adjust to the different, more mechanical soundscapes. Some professional applications offer up to a few dozen examples, but they do not always provide the option of training at home. An application called "Dacit" was developed as part of a master's thesis to give patients the opportunity to listen and train with a larger corpus, sourced from Wikidata, using pronunciation audio files from Wikimedia Commons. We demonstrate the self-reported improvements of patients and discuss the future of the app.
