What's new.

StreamTutor is in active beta. Here's what we've shipped.

Public beta

v1.0.0

The first version anyone can install. The teacher is real and it talks back.

  • Live AI voice teacher — hold the spacebar on any line to ask a question out loud and get a spoken answer.
  • Spoken explanations: at the moments that matter, the show pauses and a tutor breaks the line down, then resumes.
  • Dual subtitles and a click-to-save dictionary, layered onto your own Netflix.
  • Your lesson library, with jump-back to the exact scene where you learned a phrase.
  • Free and Pro plans, with secure Stripe checkout.
  • 30+ languages, led by Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Korean and Mandarin.

The teacher learns to speak

v0.9.0
  • Streaming teacher audio — answers start playing while they're still being generated, so there's no awkward wait.
  • A cadence control: choose how often the teacher interrupts — off, rarely, sometimes, or often.
  • Refined the in-Netflix overlay so explanations sit cleanly over the player.
  • New gold-on-black look across the extension and site.

Accounts and sync

v0.5.0
  • Sign in to save your words and lessons and sync them across devices.
  • Per-user data with row-level security, plus a shared cache so popular shows load fast.
  • Hosted backend so the extension works out of the box, no setup required.

The first prototype

v0.1.0

Where it started: an offline tool that cut a film into bite-size language lessons.

  • The original "lesson-cut" experiment that proved the idea — explain the line, then keep watching.
