Engible
Automated ESL lesson creation from YouTube videos.
The founders
The company
Engible turns any YouTube link into a complete, ready-to-teach ESL lesson: a full transcript, target vocabulary pulled directly from the video, exercises based on the language actually used, and an interactive lesson students open via a link. Learners complete and submit without creating an account, and tutors get results organised by exercise for quick review.
ESL tutors increasingly teach with authentic content — real conversations and topics B1+ students actually care about — but prepping those lessons by hand eats hours per video. With language models now able to parse transcripts and generate targeted exercises, that manual slog is exactly the kind of work worth automating.
Founded in 2026 out of Hungary by Dmitrii Matveenkov, Engible is built around a specific tutor pain: the transcript-to-exercises grind that makes using real video content so time-consuming. The company frames authentic content as a strength for intermediate learners, not a barrier.
It's early days — pre-funding and newly founded — so the case rests on a sharp, narrow product rather than a long track record. The founder has shipped a focused workflow that covers the full loop from lesson creation to assignment and review, which suggests a clear read on how tutors actually work.
