LangLime is a language-learning app that emphasizes fast immersion in realistic text snippets rather than rote drills. It supports reading and writing in six languages (Spanish, Italian, French, Portuguese, German, and Korean) and lets users translate contextually rich excerpts with features like text-to-speech playback, sentence-level grammar breakdowns, and in-context explanations. The app allows users to customize examples to their interests, bypasses heavy gamification, and aims to accelerate comprehension through exposure instead of isolated vocabulary exercises. LangLime fosters continuous flow by surfacing instant explanations for phrases that viewers don’t understand without interrupting practice, thus reducing switching between resources. While currently text-based for input, future updates may include spoken interaction. The interface is clean and minimal, and tutorials are available before needing to commit, helping users evaluate the experience early.

Lingo Champion is a language-acquisition platform that enables learners to progress through reading, listening, and vocabulary practice using authentic content rather than traditional drills. It incorporates news articles, stories, videos, subtitles, and uploaded texts into an immersive learning environment, automatically tracking every word you read or listen to and converting it into personalized flashcards. The platform supports over 15 languages and offers a Chrome/desktop extension as well as a mobile app that allows you to learn while browsing the web or watching YouTube. Within any text or webpage you open, Lingo Champion detects words and sentences in your target language and provides instant translations or hover-tooltips; you can customise the translation percentage, choose to focus on words or full sentences, and import external subtitle or caption files. The system includes AI-powered tools that let you look up phrases, get explanations of natural speech, and more.
