Trancy: The AI-Powered Way to Learn Languages Better
Popular language learning apps like Duolingo and Babbel have already fused AI into their core. However, many of us may not have time to dedicate to spending on these learning apps.
Trancy offers an even more immersive way to learn and speak new languages using familiar platforms like YouTube, Netflix, and TED. It does so by translating subtitles and website content into the language you want to learn. But Trancy does a lot more than that.
At its core, Trancy is a bilingual translation tool. It uses the power of Artificial Intelligence to show bilingual subtitles on platforms like YouTube and Netflix. So, the next time you watch a TED talk or a favorite TV series, you will see two subtitles: one in your native language and one in the language you want to learn. This approach helps you pick up new words in context without interrupting the experience. With Trancy, you’re not just passively watching; you’re actively learning.
“Our goal is to make learning language not boring anymore, We are trying to open up a new world of language learning for you,” says the Trancy team.
Setting up Trancy is effortless since you can simply install the web browser or mobile extension. Once you have done the initial setup, you can find a Trancy button every time you open YouTube or Netflix. Tapping the button would show you bilingual subtitles. You can then use a handful of features to customize how you learn.
