👋 Intro As a serial startup founder and someone who has been learning English for 20 years, I'm aware of the difficulties of regularly practicing a new language. Approximately 760 million English First Language speakers like me are motivated to learn the language, but not motivated enough to change our habits and practice it regularly. One of the reasons for the difficulty with regular practice is that it's challenging for an adult city dweller to embed a new activity or habit, in our case, learning a language, into the established mode of life. 📺 Watching videos to learn English After much experimentation, I found that incorporating my English learning into my daily routine was possible by watching videos in English. This allowed me to enjoy my spare time while improving my language skills. However, if you're not fluent in the target language, stopping to check unfamiliar words ruins the pleasure of watching, and we are first and foremost watching, and then learning. Not checking unfamiliar words also means missing context, often important context. 🔍 Existing solutions Upon reviewing the existing solutions, I found that most language platforms or advanced competitors were too complicated to use, which meant that the desire to use them quickly came to naught. 💡 Our Solution Our goal is to create a complete solution that simplifies the discovery of unknown words in videos and makes it easy to learn them later, with unobtrusive help and hints from AI based on statistics. 👉 What we have so far: Google Chrome extension that works on YouTube, Netflix, Coursera (with more platforms to come) * Instant word translation on hover or click, including context * Automatic saving of viewed words with context into your personal vocabulary * Personal account with viewed/saved words and statistics * Mobile apps for memorizing words * Weekly digest of frequent words * Free and premium plans 📝 What is in the plans: * Automatic detection of phrasal verbs and other strong expressions * Support of Safari, desktop and mobile versions * Coverage of major streaming and educational platforms * Editing of saved words/phrases in the personal account * Different modes of playing captions and showing translations 🙏 The ask. And give :) We would love to hear your thoughts, questions, and feedback, so we can continue to improve the product. We appreciate constructive criticism, but please don't throw tomatoes at us just yet! As a token of our appreciation, we're offering 2 weeks of full access for those of our PH users who activate the code: PH2WEEKS. Or follow this link: https://app.intersub.cc/en/check.... P.S. Huge thanks to @kevin for hunting us today. We greatly appreciate your support! 🤩

As a maker, I'm proud to announce the launch of another edutainment project - InterSub which helps people elevate their language learning while watching videos. It was a long journey with lots of UX and technical experiments, and I love the final product. However, we're constantly looking for your feedback and for improvement ideas for further development inspirations. Feel free to share it in your comments. Also, check the Kirill's intro post for more details and for a special offer for PH users.

@kevin @mujaji Congratulations on the launch of InterSub! Users can easily learn new words by watching videos on popular platforms with instant translation and automatic saving to personal vocabulary and contribute to a productive learning experience. Well done!

Looks very intriguing! Wondering what age this will be most appropriate for as a teaching solution. Can my 7-year benefit from it?

Kirill, keep rocking!

Congtrats on the launch! This tool looks like actually useful browser extention 🙂 Good luck with the development

I have been planning to build something similar like this but for articles. Few ideas to share: 1. Build this for news and other articles too if no legal issue or support only allowed sites. 2. Create a flashcard system. Notify users to review words and context. 3. In the context highlight memorized words green, lesser known words yellow and red for words that user should know but might not based on his level. 4. Let them/ provide a set of goals for number of words to learn in a given timeframe. 5. Might use a leaderboard.

Good luck! Great idea and I like your visuals that you make)

It is an great platform to learn languages and in a new way Great product Congratulations on your launch All the best!

@dennis_crane congratulations on the launch! This tool looks very interesting - if not for learning English, but definitely for translating. I've tested in on Youtube and my favorite part is that it pauses video on hover on a new word and automatically starts again. Great usability!

Chrome extension looks like very useful and practical solution for Youtube and Netflix

I love that you can get the word translation with one click. I sometimes find myself pausing a movie just to Google "word + definition". Your solution is so much easier and less time-consuming. Congrats on the launch!

My sincere congratulations on the launch to the team! Wish you guys good luck ahead! And looking forward to the appearance of Hebrew in the list of avaliable languages.

This is one of the most effective language learning tools I've come across.

I'm so impressed with how well InterSub works on different platforms like YouTube and Netflix.

The interface is user-friendly and easy to navigate.

Congrats Kiril! This looks great!

I've just installed and use this. Amazing. It's helpful when I watch ABC news. Thank you!

Great tool!

Great news! This is what happens when you continue pushing forward! Congratulations !!!
