About

Training better eyes for every skin tone.

Dermatordle is a daily dermatology puzzle. Each case helps learners practice recognizing skin disease across diverse skin tones, where findings can look different and are often missing from training materials.

Visual diagnosis depends on what learners see again and again.

Dermatology is pattern recognition. Many image sets overrepresent lighter skin, which can make common findings harder to identify in patients with darker skin tones.

Erythema may look violaceous, brown, gray, or muted. Scale, pigment change, follicular inflammation, and scarring can become the most important clues. Dermatordle builds practice around those differences on purpose.
