Listening.Hiwar

Learn any language effortlessly with videos and these tools!

What it does

Most language apps give you fake sentences and gamified drills. Listening.Hiwar works differently — paste any YouTube video, get a synced transcript, click any word to translate it, and practice the vocabulary you actually encountered. Real content, real language, real progress. Works with Spanish, French, Korean, German, Japanese, and more. Free to try, no credit card needed.

We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
