Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Nikolas, a product designer with 13 years of experience — and Lingrus is the third product I've built, but the first one that solves a problem I found myself. Two years ago I took a course on launching micro-products and started hunting for a real problem worth solving. Digging through Reddit threads and talking to people learning Russian, one fear kept coming up again and again: "I can read and understand some Russian, but I freeze when it's time to speak. I'm afraid of sounding stupid." That hit me. Apps teach you to read, match words, and drill grammar — but almost nothing teaches you to actually talk. And speaking is the whole point. So I built Lingrus: an AI conversation partner that lives in your browser. You speak out loud, it replies like a native speaker, and every phrase you say gets instant feedback — wrong case ending? You'll see the correction with a plain-English explanation. Slow the audio down to 0.8X if you need to catch every word. From idea to launch took about 3 months. We're tiny — a handful of early learners and a 5.0 rating on Chrome Web Store — but the feedback so far has been heartwarming. Try it free: install takes 10 seconds, and your first conversation can happen right now. I'll be here all day — tell me honestly: what's stopping you from speaking Russian out loud? Every comment goes straight into my roadmap.
