Clearly vs BeginClass

Clearly turns anything you read into natural speech — and into a way to learn the language while you listen. Everything runs on your device, offline. NEW — Read the web in Safari. Turn on the Clearly Safari extension and listen to ANY web page right where it is — no copy-paste, no importing. Select a sentence, tap play, and Clearly reads aloud from there in a natural voice, highlighting each line and scrolling to follow along. Pause, skip sentences, and change the speed from a control bar on the page. It's the fastest way to turn articles, blogs, news, and docs into hands-free, fully on-device listening. Paste text, open a .txt file, drop in a web link, or bring in an X post. Clearly pulls out the article, reads it aloud in a natural voice, and gives you a quick summary — all on your device. Tap any sentence to start listening from there, with the sentence highlighted as it plays. Pause on something you don't fully understand and open Interpret: Clearly shows a literal translation and a natural one, then explains the words you pick — meaning, pronunciation, and an example sentence. A reader and a quiet language tutor in one.

Turn every class into text, translations, and study-ready highlights you can revisit anytime. BeginClass is a smart lecture-notes app built for classes, online courses, seminars, and learning across languages. Follow a live transcript while the class is happening, then review the recording, transcript, bookmarks, translations, and AI summary together after class. LIVE LECTURE TRANSCRIPTION Choose the language being spoken and see timestamped transcript segments appear while you record. It is useful for university lectures, online courses, seminars, interviews, meetings, and study discussions. REAL-TIME TRANSLATION Display the original transcript and translated text together for supported language pairs, helping you keep up in a class taught in another language. You can also translate the complete saved transcript after class. RECORDING, TRANSCRIPT, AND BOOKMARKS TOGETHER Each recording stays with its transcript. Listen while you read, add bookmarks during class, and return quickly to the moments you want to review. AI CLASS SUMMARIES Create a structured summary from a saved transcript to identify key ideas, learning points, and review cues. The transcript is sent to the AI service only when you explicitly request a summary. TRANSCRIBE AUDIO AND VIDEO FILES Import recordings, audio, and video from Files or Photos, or send supported media to BeginClass from another app. Turn course recordings, podcasts, talks, and interviews into searchable text. PHOTO AND CONVERSATION TRANSLATION Capture or choose slides, handouts, whiteboards, and other images to recognize and translate their text.
