HearBrew vs Velocity

HearBrew — Master English Listening, One Sentence at a Time Struggling to understand native English speakers? The problem isn't your vocabulary — it's that real speech comes in long, fast, complex sentences. HearBrew breaks YouTube videos into 15–30 second clips, each containing one natural sentence, so you can train your ear on real-world speech at your own pace. Swipe through clips like TikTok — a familiar, effortless way to learn during any spare moment: commuting, waiting in line, or before bed. How it works: • AI splits videos into bite-sized clips — one sentence per clip, the perfect unit for ear training • Set your target comprehension (e.g. 70%) — the app finds clips that challenge you just enough • Choose how many times each clip repeats — listen 2x, 3x, or more until you catch every word • Toggle subtitles on/off — start with subtitles, then try pure listening • Tap any word for pronunciation, definition, and translation AI that knows your level: • Every clip is difficulty-scored — from simple greetings to dense news commentary • The recommendation engine adapts to your listening ability in real time • Pick your interests: sitcoms, TED talks, news, podcasts, documentaries • Each session feels just right — not too easy, not overwhelming Track your progress: • Study streaks and daily heatmap • Vocabulary book of every word you've looked up • Watch history and favorites Submit your own videos: • Paste any YouTube URL — we process it into learning clips with subtitles, vocabulary highlights, and difficulty scoring • Free users get 100 clips/month, Pro members get 300+ Safety & content: • All video playback uses YouTube's official embedded player — no videos are downloaded or stored • Report inappropriate content or block users directly from the app Start learning immediately with no account required.
