Mimic turns any YouTube video into a speaking lesson. Listen line by line, shadow real native speakers, get instant feedback on your pronunciation and train your ear with dictation.
Practice with the creators, shows and channels you already watch, not textbook audio.
Paste a YouTube link and Mimic fetches the subtitles and splits the video into short clips you can practice one at a time. Or pick from recommended videos for your level.
Shadowing means repeating a native speaker right after them. Record yourself on each line and Mimic shows exactly which words to fix.
Listen to a line and rebuild it word by word. Dictation sharpens listening and spelling at the same time.
Not sure what a phrase means or why it's said that way? Get any line explained by AI, with translation and context.
Follow a karaoke-style transcript that highlights each line as it's spoken.
Tap any word in the transcript to see its meaning without leaving the lesson.
Change speed (1× to 2×), jump line by line and loop the hard parts.
Short daily sessions and streaks turn practice into a habit.
Paste a YouTube link or choose a recommended video in the language you're learning.
Play one line at a time, then repeat it out loud and get instant feedback.
Use dictation and AI explanations to lock in new words and phrases.
Shadowing is a speaking technique where you listen to a native speaker and repeat what they say right after them, copying their rhythm, stress and intonation. Mimic makes it easy by splitting videos into short lines and giving feedback on each one.

It works with YouTube videos that have subtitles in the language you're learning. Paste the link and Mimic splits it into clips you can practice.
