Use AI superpowers to learn new languages right in your browser. For every 30 words you learn, we donate money to PlasticBank to clean up the world's oceans.
Hello Product Hunt! 👋
My name is Denis and I'm the founder of the Corgi browser extension.
I'm incredibly happy that we're here today and looking back I want to say that it's been a very hard road for us. We've done two pivots, collected a huge amount of feedback and now we're ready to tell you about the work we've done and what we're planning next.
We started this project as a hobby about 2 years ago. What it was then and what it is now are completely different extensions. But that's the journey of a startup 🙂 .
I think everyone on this site understands us.
About a month ago, we got into the Google Chrome Editor's Choice selection. I would like to thank them separately for that. It means a lot to us!
But let's get back to Corgi.
What we already have:
🐶 Corgi AI. Your personal language teacher based on ChatGPT. At the moment you can chat with him on any topic or ask him to explain grammar rules. He will also correct your messages if you made a mistake somewhere. In future updates we plan to add voice chatting, thematic chats (for example, checking in at the airport or ordering a coffee), detailed explanation of mistakes and many other useful features. Our goal is to make a full-fledged language teacher right in your browser
🤖 Translation of words and sentences. Corgi works as an ordinary translator. You can translate sentences on websites or individual words. Corgi will suggest several translation options and filter them by popularity.
🥋 Word Trainer. You can add any words you want to learn and memorize them in a special word trainer. For each correct answer you will be awarded 5 points, when you reach 100, the word will go to the studied. Don't forget to open the extension periodically and learn the words. Even 5 minutes a day can yield results over the long haul
🌎 Learn words in context. This feature is turned off by default, but you can enable it in the extension settings. In this case, Corgi will analyze words on the sites you visit and if it comes across a word you've added to study, it will highlight it. When you hover over that word, you will have to select the correct translation option. This will help you learn words more efficiently while you are just surfing the web.
P.S. Corgi does not have access to your browsing history or enter any data. We value your privacy and do not collect or store any data other than the words you add to the study.
🐡 Motivation is important. To make you more motivated to learn foreign languages, we've added a little charity mechanic. For every 30 words you learn, we will invest money to our partner (PlasticBank) who is dedicated to cleaning plastic from the world's oceans. Every 30 words equals one plastic bottle.
We really want to contribute in a small way to this common cause and hope you will help us in this :)
At the moment we support learning several languages including English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Russian and Spanish. This list will be constantly expanding.
Thank you very much for reading our post and learning a bit more about Corgi.
We look forward to your support and feedback

Congratulations on this launch! It's inspiring to hear about your journey and the significant milestones you've achieved. The word trainer feature is great. I think it will really help enhance my vocabulary systematically. Are there plans to expand language support? Good luck!
