• Show HN: I build an AI Language Speaking that make 3k a month

  Congrats! 3k a month is a already a nice side hustle. Are you personally using the app a lot? I'm asking because I've also had the idea of a language learning chatbot, put together a quick POC but found it super boring super fast. Also, I've found it difficult to learn new words, because when you are speaking, you are only using the words you already know. At the end, I've abandoned the chatbot project idea and... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Show HN: Glossarie – a new, immersive way to learn a language

  Hi, if it would be sufficient for you to read websites, I'm building https://vokabeln.io, though the concept is a bit different, focusing more on flashcards and spaced-repetition. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Duolingo Sucks, Now What?

  And yet again, I'm promoting my app on HN. SRS flashcards, sentences and audio generated with AI, Wiktionary, YouTube, Webbrowser integration: https://vokabeln.io (landing page is old) Only works for German right now, but I'll be adding Spanish and English in the coming months. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Ask HN: How do you come up with side project ideas in 2024?

  My biggest side projects come from being almost mad that a certain project does not exist. For example, I've seen a lot of gif memes on the internet, in which the text was always very badly jumping around and it was very difficult to make them. So I've spent a few hundreds of hours making https://gifmemes.io. (actually as my bc. Project :D) Another project I'm working on right now comes from my frustrations with... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Ask HN: What have you built with LLMs?

  I'm building a spaced-repetition flashcards language learning app, that generates sentences and explanations for a given word. Unfortunately only for German, but I plan on expanding the languages soon. https://vokabeln.io Tech stack:. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Ask HN: How many of you are self employed?

  I'm freelancing two days a week, which generates most of my income. For the rest of the week, I'm bootstrapping a language learning app.(https://vokabeln.io/) I'm lucky enough not having to pay rent and also living expenses in Czechia are not that high. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Anki – Powerful, intelligent flash cards

  - Skipping ahead --> My level is around B1/B2, I don't want to do placement tests and then re-learning the words I already know Anki has worked the best, but generating cards with sentences and audio was quite cumbersome and (a seemingly minor detail) I was loosing flow while thinking whether I knew the card "well", "good", "easy" or whatever the options options are. So for the past year, I'm on-off working on a... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Show HN: Vocab Miner – find new words in Spanish from texts

  Shameless plug, I'm currently making an app that does the same thing for German: https://vokabeln.io, it does not work 100% correctly yet, because german has just an infinite amount of compound words, but if you are looking for an app that extracts words from a text and then makes you practice with spaced repetition, then it gets the job done. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Ask HN: What apps have you created for your own use?

  I've built https://vokabeln.io to memorize German vocabulary from YouTube videos and websites. Currently at 16000 swipes. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Ask HN: How is your startup doing?

  Not the author, but yep, I think there is a typo here. Should be https://vokabeln.io/ (vokabeln is German for “vocabulary”). - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Show HN

  Warning: shameless self-promotion I'm currently working on German vocabulary learning app, https://vokabeln.io/, which uses LLMs in a similar way. The app allows you to paste text and extracts the vocabulary to learn. The vocabulary is then repeated with spaced repetition, audios are generated and users can generate infinitely more examples. I might have made something that works only for me, as getting users... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
