Summary
Ignite is an AI-powered English speaking practice tool for engineers that converts technical documentation into speaking drills. Users can share technical articles from Safari, and Claude AI generates five types of questions (concept explanation, comparison, use cases, examples, trade-offs). The tool scores users' spoken English responses on semantic accuracy rather than just keywords, helping engineers improve their ability to explain technical concepts verbally.
