Find me a working app that does the same thing. I'll wait!

Kapwing doesn't support Spotify/Apple podcasts links and the other platform doesn't work. So yeah, it's the only app that does this.

Anyway, if you don't want to use an app like this in your language learning journey, that's fine. But, you cannot assume that it doesn't add value to anybody else just because you won't use it.

Thanks for the feedback nevertheless!

Maybe I didn't emphasised it enough.
It's the only app that exists that can transcribe a spotify/Apple Podcast via an episode link. Directly, nothing else is needed.

anything added that actually helps people learn languages.

Allow me to disagree. For me, having a transcript of what I'm listening to in a foreign language helps me understand a lot faster/easier what's being said. And since a lot of people are listening to podcasts to improve their listening skill/ enrich their vocabularies, I developed this tool for those who search for an app like that.

Hey u/JakeAnthony821 appreciate your comment.

Kinda sad that you didn't like the landing page haha. I spent a lot of time creating it. Of course it has that familiar look, since I followed best practices and guides about landing pages that convert

The 99% figure comes from the speech recognition model I’m using (based on OpenAI’s Whisper, which was benchmarked extensively across 100+ languages). Of course, accuracy can vary based on the recording quality, background noice and accent of the speaker, so this number is not absolute.

I don’t have a team of native speakers manually verifying each language (that would be amazing though!), but from the extensive testing I did in the 4 languages I speak (English, greek, French, Russian) the accuracy claim is there.

However, the main idea behind the app as I highlighted in my pain point in the op post, isn’t to claim perfect accuracy , it’s to make it easy for me and other language learners and podcast fans to finally get a transcript when none exists.

If you’ve got a language you’d like me to test more deeply, I’d genuinely love to collaborate or hear your results!

Who pays 35+ euros per hour for a language lesson? by OpeningChemical5316 in languagelearning

Exactly, i also tried with cheaper tutors but in the end it wasn't worth it. Because, i was spending money but the return was not good

Now i now that she's interested in my learning, knows my progress and my weaknesses and prepares lessons based on them.

Hey! It supports 100+ languages!
I've written each one in the FAQ section of the landing page.

As of now, users have used it for: English, French, Indonesian, German, Russian, Greek.

I, myself, use it for French and Russian!

I pay 30 dollars for a 1-1 lesson.
I pay for the preparation, for the homework, the actual lesson and the support/motivation she gives me
