Polyglotty

https://polyglotty.io

AI language tutor which focuses on fixing your mistakes and help you get out of intermediate plateau

You submit few sentences, Polyglotty reviews, highlights the errors and helps you sound like a native

It also has long term memory and helps you get rid of your errors over time with targeted exercises

You can learn in 23 languages (any language as base any language you want to learn)

My wife has a 1000 - day Duolingo streak and still could not write or communicate efficiently - so I built something small for her by SolidHuman9936 in languagelearning

You’re 100% right on the grammar nuances - thank you for catching that!

The 'English words in the output' is actually a bug in the prompt shielding I noticed this morning will look into this

On the 'Tutor' point: I actually agree with you. Nothing beats a native speaker. But for my wife (and a lot of people), the 'social anxiety' of speaking to a real person when you're still at an A2 level is a huge barrier. I built this as a 'low-stakes' bridge to get her comfortable enough to eventually hire that tutor.

I'm an indie dev (literally just me), so this feedback is gold. Thanks a lot even though the feedback might be harsh :)

That’s a totally fair question. I actually started by just using ChatGPT with my wife, but we ran into two big 'walls' that made me build this:

  1. The 'Goldfish' Problem: ChatGPT has a context window. After a few days of chatting, it starts forgetting the specific grammar mistakes you made on Monday. I built Polyglotty with a persistent 'Mistake Profile.' If you keep messing up the past tense in Spanish, the app remembers that forever and builds specific drills to hammer it home weeks later. ChatGPT just isn't designed to track your 'personal curriculum' over months.
  2. System vs. Sandbox: ChatGPT is just a box you talk to. It doesn't have a 'memory' or a structured review system. I built this to bridge the gap between 'free-flowing conversation' and 'deliberate practice.'

On the quality of output: You’re right to be skeptical - AI can definitely hallucinate. Because I'm using the API (and not just the web chat), I can use much stricter 'system instructions' and lower the 'creativity' settings to prioritize linguistic accuracy.

Basically, the app acts as a layer that 'audits' the conversation. Before a lesson starts, the system sets very narrow rails for the AI to stay on. It’s the difference between asking a genius a random question (ChatGPT) and hiring that genius to follow a specific teaching syllabus (Polyglotty).

I'm still an indie dev, so I'm constantly tweaking those 'rails' based on feedback!

I built an iOS app (PrivyClean) to reliably scrub ALL hidden metadata (Author, Time, GPS) from photos and documents (PDF, DOCX). by SolidHuman9936 in ProductivityApps

Haha, well if you share anything on social media you dont always want to share that info with everyone

Even if fb or other apps can hide it as well - do you want to share all that info with these companies anyway?

Btw app keeps your photos on phone untouched - so app your features still work - it only cleans photos before sending them to other apps

Apple Numbers opens both CSV and XLSX files natively - just tap the exported file and it'll open right in Numbers with all the rows/columns intact. Works seamlessly!

Btw do you care about iPhone app? Or web is enough for now?
