When learning a language, it's really difficult to find content that is both engaging and at your level. To solve this problem, Lingofable is a mobile app that delivers short stories to you that you actually want to read (from sci-fi to r/AmITheJerk-style posts) at the perfect, pedagogically backed, ~98% comprehensibility! By tracking all of your vocab, we're able to dynamically adjust to your level as you read and improve.

The i+1 comprehensibility approach is exactly right. Finding content that's slightly above your level is the hardest part of language learning, and the fact that you track vocabulary to dynamically adjust the difficulty is a huge differentiator from static graded readers.
Really cool that this came out of real experience with xianxia webnovels! What genres are available right now, and do users have any control over the story themes they get? Being able to choose between sci-fi, slice of life, or something like the AmITheJerk style would keep reading sessions really engaging.
The i+1 content gap is so real. You hit a point where textbook dialogues are boring but real books/shows are still overwhelming. Stories at your level is honestly the missing piece for most language learners — glad someone is finally building for this specifically.
