Hi Product Hunt 👋 I'm the maker of Chorus.
I'm a parent, and I built this in the small pockets of time around family life, with AI as my coding partner. The idea came from my own listening routine. I kept playing podcasts in the language I'm learning, and every time I missed a sentence the loop looked the same: pause the player, open a dictionary app, open a translator, maybe record myself with a voice app, and then try to find my place in the audio again. Four tools, one sentence, and the podcast never really got listened to.
Chorus puts that whole loop inside one player. Real audio comes first — curated podcasts, or your own audio and video. Word-level subtitles follow the sound, with readings above the words and a translation underneath. When a sentence still doesn't click, AI Explain breaks it down: translation, vocabulary, grammar, all in context. And when you're ready to talk, Echo walks you through one sentence at a time: listen to the original, recall it with the subtitles hidden, say it out loud while recording, then play your voice right after the original recording. To be clear about what it is: record and compare, not automatic pronunciation scoring — your own ears are the judge, and that turns out to be the point.
It's live on the App Store for iPhone (iOS 17+), free to start. If you'd rather not install anything yet, the website has a few real lessons you can try in your browser.
So here's the question I keep circling back to: if you have tried learning from real audio — what made you give up on it?
