Hello Product Hunt 👋🏼
I'm Aditya, a mobile engineer and language learner striving to become a polyglot. My goal is to read more English book, so I bought some paperback self-help books. The main challenge, though, is running into unfamiliar words. Typing each word into a separate app or website breaks the flow of reading. That's why I build Paglyph.
Paglyph lets me to look up a word in just two step: snap a page and tap a word. That's it. On top of that, here is what makes Paglyph special:
Photo lookup: Capture a page or choose an existing photo, then tap any word to look it up.
Context-aware meaning: Paglyph highlights the meaning that fits your sentence, savings your time scanning through every definitions.
Contextual explanation: AI elaborates on the highlighted meaning and shows how it works in your sentence, giving you a deeper understanding.
Personal word library: Save the words you look up and build your own vocabulary list.
Spaced repetition: Review your library on a schedule that adapts to how well you remember each word.
Daily goals and reminders: Make a room for a little vocabulary practice every day.
iCloud sync: Keep your library up to date across your devices.
I'd love to hear your thoughts, feedback, or critiques to help me make Paglyph even better in upcoming updates.
Thank you 🙌🏼
