CallVocab turns the English calls you already sit in into English lessons. It reads the live captions your call displays and mirrors them into a panel where every word is clickable. Tap a word for its meaning and pronunciation — it's saved with the sentence it came from. Tap a line to read it in your language; 16 supported. After the call, review your words as flashcards, organized per meeting. No account, no API key, no ads. Everything stays on your machine. Google Meet and Microsoft Teams.
Hi Product Hunt,
I kept sitting in English meetings where a word I didn't know would
go past, and I'd tell myself I'd look it up later. I never did. The
meeting ended, the word was gone, and the next call had its own.
So I built CallVocab. Your call already generates live captions —
CallVocab mirrors them into a side panel where every single word is
clickable. Tap one and you get its meaning and pronunciation, and it's
saved automatically together with the sentence it appeared in. A word
without its context is a word you forget twice.
After the call you review everything as flashcards, grouped by meeting,
and you can export it all to Anki, Notion, Markdown or plain text.
Two decisions I care about:
It's free with no account, no sign-up and no API key to paste. Your
words and transcripts are stored in your own browser, never on a server
of mine — because a transcript of your work meetings is not something
I want to be responsible for.
And it doesn't do speech recognition. It reads the captions the platform
already provides, which is why it's light and why live captions need to
be on. Google Meet and Microsoft Teams work. Zoom doesn't, because Zoom
only shows captions in its desktop app and no browser extension can read
a desktop application.
I'd genuinely like to know where it falls short. If you try it in a real
call and something breaks or feels wrong, tell me here — I'm around all
day.
