A wrong kanji is forever. Before you ink, see what it actually says and get a clean brush version for your artist. Thinking of a kanji tattoo? Before it's permanent, find out what it actually says. Paste your kanji, type the meaning you want, or upload your tattoo design — Sumi tells you the real meaning, whether it reads naturally to a native speaker, and fixes it if it's wrong. Everything is checked privately on your device. Nothing is uploaded. WHY SUMI - See the real meaning: literal, plus how natives actually use it - Catch the embarrassing traps (愛人 means "mistress," not "lover") - A clean brush version (PNG/PDF) to hand your tattoo artist - Honest about names: foreign names are sounds, so katakana is the accurate form No account. No uploads. No "I thought it meant honor." Free instant check for every word. The one-time Verified Report adds the full breakdown and the high-res brush export for your artist. Sumi is guidance to help you avoid a permanent mistake. You and your artist make the final call.
