Hi, Product Hunters 👋 After eight months of development and testing, we are finally launching our product - Trancy. Let me briefly tell you the story of Trancy. ### Why have we built it? As a non-native English-speaking product manager, I don't have much time to learn a new language. However, I've found that watching YouTube has significantly improved my English listening skills. Though tools like Language Reactor and Ejoy have been helpful, their user experience is not yet satisfactory. So, I'm designing and optimizing YouTube to become an effective language learning tool. Practicing language while watching favorite videos is wonderful! ### How does it help? We made a simple chrome extension, so you can turn YouTube and Netflix into personalized study materials. You can build your vocabulary and grammar skills, Improve your listening and speaking abilities. We have recently integrated the popular OpenAI technology to further enhance our ability to define words and parse grammar. Trancy supports learning in multiple languages, including English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, Hindi, Korean, Japanese, and Chinese. 📺 Theater Mode The new theater mode can help you purify all distractions on the page and focus more on the video content itself, whether you are watching YouTube or Netflix, you can enjoy a more immersive viewing experience. - Bilingual subtitles - Word highlighting - NLP word segmentation - Open AI word definition - Loop playback - Speed control 📖 Reading Mode In reading mode, Trancy uses innovative intelligent sentence segmentation to divide subtitles into complete sentences, helping users focus more on reading subtitles, facilitating overall viewing, and more convenient sentence practice. This mode is also particularly suitable for practicing songs and singing along. - Intelligent sentence segmentation - Focused playback - Word collection - Sentence collection - Font adjustment 🎧 Practice Mode Different from other bilingual subtitle extension, Trancy has customized a unique practice mode for users. Through various practice methods, it comprehensively improves listening and speaking abilities. You can do shadowing or fill-in-the-blank exercises, master new words through keyboard muscle memory, and practice mastering long and difficult sentences. - Open AI grammar analysis - Oral training - Listening training - Mode training - Fill-in-the-blank training 🌟 Other Features - External dictionary - Lifelike Text to Speech - Shortcut keys ready - Multiple themes - Multilingual

As a multilingual learner with experience using similar tools, I must admit that this is the most user-friendly and fantastic one.

Hey there! 🎉 Congratulations on launching Trancy on Product Hunt! 🚀 It's incredible how you've transformed YouTube and Netflix into personalized learning materials for language learners. The bilingual subtitles, AI-translation, and multiple training methods are game-changers! 🌍💬 The focus on creating a clean and focused interface is much appreciated too. 😍 Keep up the amazing work, and I can't wait to see how Trancy continues to help people learn languages more effectively! 🤩👏

I tested this out today with Spanish and it is amazing! I can't believe how many features it is. I found the speaking practice particularly helpful for shadowing and working on my accent.

This is amazing! Really love the effort put into the design. For me, the reading mode is a game changer. Now I can learn more languages with a great collection of words and sentences. Great work Elidi and Team!

Wow! This sounds like a great tool for language learners. How does Trancy make learning easier?

Check out Trancy! It's a great way to turn YouTube and Netflix into personalized study materials. You can build your vocabulary and grammar skills, improve your listening and speaking abilities, and more.

During the first 10 seconds of utilising this product, I knew it was fantastic. So amazing. I'm going to look more closely. I'm grateful.

I could tell this was a brilliant product within 10 seconds of start using. So amazing. I'm gonna see in detail more. Thank you.

Cool! I will definitely check out your product! I need something besides my project, which I think takes me 23h per day :D

I got you, Elidi!

Great job on Trancy! Looking forward to seeing how it helps with language learning. What kind of features make it stand out?

Congrats on the launch! The signup page seems not working for me. Is it just me? Or is it a bug for everyone? Looking forward to trying it

This is a great idea! I'm always looking for new ways to improve my language skills, and Trancy sounds like the perfect tool to help me learn through my favorite shows and videos. Can't wait to try it out!

Good, useful idea 😎 I enjoy studying in YouTube

As a teacher, I find this tool really helpful 🔥

I love learning new languages and watching international shows on Netflix made me want to understand the basics and technicalities of the language. Trancy is an amazing tool for people wanting to upskill themselves while consuming media. It's entertainment + knowledge. What would you say is Trancy's best feature?

Looks great, BUT - why does the Chrome extension need access to ALL data on ALL websites, instead of just youtube/netflix... ?

Sounds interesting!
