It has been suggested that I talk up the startup. Very well then! Langolab.com is a site where people can watch videos in a foreign language. The videos have captions and all kinds of tools surrounding the captions, like one-click dictionary lookup, flash cards, and notes. Our goal is for people to be able to watch compelling, addictive video content in a foreign language and immediately get exactly the help they want whenever they hear something they don't understand. We think it's an extremely cool idea, and we think we have an edge because of our crazy ambition and technical expertise.
On the content side, our dream is to make the site truly magical by licensing really cool video content, like Family Guy in Spanish. On the functionality side, we want to make the site truly magical by giving users exactly the help they need when they're struggling with a video caption. We would be especially helped by anyone with a background or strong interest in natural language processing.
We talk to people all over the world who learn English by watching subtitled movies. Over a billion people worldwide are learning English right now. On a web page, we can give all kinds of help that can't be provided in movie subtitles. This is a really awesome idea. Please call!
