No more alt-tabbing or reaching for your phone. Just seamless, immersive learning. Built natively for macOS Use code launch100 for 100% off.

I made WordHunter, a macOS app that lets you master vocabulary without ever leaving your favorite content. With just one keystroke, it pauses your movie, series, or YouTube video, finds the word you don't know, defines it in the context of the subtitle, and saves it to Anki so you never forget it. Why WordHunter? Whether you’re bingeing a series on Netflix, catching a documentary on Apple TV+, or learning from a creator on YouTube, the biggest hurdle is the "flow killer." You hit a word you don't know, and suddenly you’re reaching for your phone or alt-tabbing to a browser. You lose the narrative, and you lose the momentum. WordHunter changes that. It’s a native macOS app that sits silently in your menu bar. - ⌥Z (Option+Z): A global hotkey that instantly captures your screen, OCRs the subtitles, and highlights the hardest word in your current frame. - Zero-flow interaction: Designed for one-handed keyboard control. It auto-pauses, highlights, and fetches the definition in milliseconds. - Anki Integration: Found a world? ⌥A pushes the word, the context sentence, and the definition directly to your Anki deck. Stop translating; start understanding. Get WordHunter for free during our launch.
