This has massively increased the amount I'm speaking, far beyond what I could manage before. It's scary how close it sounds to your voice Olly, I almost feel guilty for taking up too much of "your" time 😂

Ever since I finished college a year ago I haven't had the structure of French classes anymore and I've found that I haven't really been practicing as much as I'd like. I also struggle the most with speaking, so this is amazing! I would love if you could add Thai in the future as I love the language and plan on learning it soon.

My schedule is really packed, so I can't easily use other speaking apps with real people. I think this is a great addition to a learning curve. You can try some things you've learned and when you have the time talk to real people in the languague. I'll surely going to use this in the coming year! Great work! 👏

Kudos on your German, Olly!

I bought your French course more than a year ago, realized that my German wasn't quite good enough for my new life here in Germany, and therefore put French on the back burner. Yesterday, I started up my French journey and am surprised by how much kana/haven't forgotten from my highschool days. An AI language tool designed by you will make a real difference for your fellow language lovers! Thanks so much for sharing the news!

This a game changer! This is an introverted language learners best friend.

I find this really fascinating and I hope you'll keep on adding more languages (not so secretly hoping that Hungarian will be added at some point because of very selfish reasons lol). Anyway this seems like a super useful use of ai, that can help many ppl start talking and incorporate it into their language learning to a much higher degree similar to how we’re reading and watching tv shows in our target languages :)

Wow! This is amazing. This will be a powerful tool for keeping up your speaking skills and gaining confidence speaking in your target language. Well done!!

This is EXACTLY what I’ve been looking for! I’ve been learning Croatian for 3-4 years now, and not only is it a really difficult language to learn (7 grammatical cases, difficult vocabulary, very few cognates), but it’s also not nearly as popular as the mainstream languages (French, German, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Mandarin, etc.). That makes it nigh on impossible to find decent language learning material. Up until now I’ve been having bi-weekly conversation sessions on iTalki with a native Croatian speaker, which is great, but it certainly does have its limitations. When I watched this video, I thought to myself that this is yet another AI language learning platform designed for the mainstream languages, which I might one day use to keep up with my Spanish, German, and French. But I almost fell off my chair when I discovered Croatian as one of its language offerings! No more performance anxiety! No more lesson scheduling difficulties due to time zone differences (I live in Australia)! I now have the chance to speak Croatian every day and have meaningful and effective conversations that will boost my speaking ability. This is truly a game changer for me, and I can’t wait to see the reaction of my tutor when he sees the improvements in my Croatian. Well done, Olly, Xiaoma, and Jan! This is incredible!

I see you have so many beautiful and difficult languages in your program. Amazing! Olly is Hebrew coming soon. I have been studying it and would luv to practice it in your platform.

I’ve been curious about speaking practice with AI for a while. Your video isn’t the first on the topic. But while I think Chat GPT may be ready to go if you’re looking to type messages, I don’t know if the computer will understand my accented speech well enough to make this a pleasant experience. The only AI chat bot I’ve tried was basically turning on text to speech for Chat GPT and the voice to text for me. It was interesting but I stopped after a few minutes. I figured I’d wait for a developed product like you’re doing here. Again, it’s really important that it understand American accented Korean.. think it can?

Wow! I have just enetered late beginner in French and am having a hard time firuing out times to speak with someone, if I can even find that someone! This is great..... logging in now.

Hi Olly very useful video and great update. I could not see the facility to use for a free trial update and goes straight into asking you to sign up. Do you know if there is the facility to trial it out prior to sign up, thanks Mark

That was a hell of a demo. I look forward to tracking your product as it is something I think I need for French. Hopefully there's a way to control the cadence of how Teacher AI speaks to the student so I can absorb what is being said. Thanks.

I signed up and love this program!

I loved it, but gotta stick with the books and apps. It's a bit expensive for me, but the price is surely fair

Hey Olly for those of us who are using your storylearning courses, it would be nice to use this with the speaking practice exercises!

Signed up for this service based on your suggestion. The issues have been prohibitively bad. I received an email saying I would get a free month for my troubles, which is nice, but that’s what I would expect. I haven’t been able to use this service for the month I’ve paid for it. Obviously I need to be credited for that. If you want to make a gesture of good will I need to be credited for the month that’s been wasted due to the technical issues on the site AND another month for my troubles.

Looks like a great tool, I am really afraid to lose my Catalán so I would love to practice that there. It would be awesome if you could add that language!

Thank you for the website review, Olly! When it concerns the (Brazilian) Portuguese version, I must point out that it sounds perhaps too informal due to the sole use of simple or even poor grammatical structures. Although this might be a matter of taste and some users may find it useful. However, do bare in mind that the tool also features unnatural pronunciation (intonation) of some phrases ass well as spelling mistakes (such as “corrijo” spelled with a G at 5:58). In fact, I guess your Portuguese is too good to benefit from that tool. As a side note: The fact that the Brazilian stands in front of the Saint Mary’s Basilica of Kraków surprises me, as they could certainly have used a more representative landmark of the language.

I tried a competitor a few weeks ago and I was pretty surprised at the progress they've made in this sort of technology.

Fantastic and amazing! I will check this out !

I'm trying to learn Spanish as an older adult. I never learned when I was in high school. I'm a math person. So, I decided to take a more scientific approach. I watched a linguistics playlist on YT. That made me watch other linguistics playlist. And, watch people like you. I recalled one of the presenters said that morphemes help people to understand language better. But, how am I as as an English non-linguist speaker going to know the morphemes in a Spanish word. Well, your video made me think ... what if I start to use ChatGPT. I heard of ChatGPT. But, never used it before. Wow! It is amazing. I asked ChatGPT to give me a word in Spanish that has 3 morphemes. It gave me desamado. This what I got ...The word "desamado" in Spanish, meaning "unloved," is indeed composed of three morphemes: 1. **"am-"** is the root morpheme. It comes from "amar," meaning "to love." 2. **"des-"** is a prefix morpheme, indicating negation or the opposite. When attached to "amado" (loved), it changes the meaning to its opposite, so "desamado" means "unloved." 3. **"-ado"** is a suffix morpheme that is commonly used to form past participles in Spanish. In this context, "amado" means "loved" (as a state of being, not the past action of loving), and "desamado" translates to "unloved." This what a light-bulb moment. I learned about a prefix, a suffix, and the root word. The root word will help me identify other words now from context. This might be an idea for a future video.

Sounds very interesting. I would love to try it out first before paying for a subscription. especially since it's a bit expensive to just try it out. will there be a trial period some time later?

Os there anyway we can get a free trial to see if it suits us?

I think if you really want to maximize feedback and have user confidence in this AI then you would make a less aggressive sales offer on the website. There is no 7 to 14 day free trial that is typical for most language apps and or competing language learning AI platforms. Platforms that aren't predatory and have confidence in what they have built. Requiring us to immediately commit financially without being able to test drive is questionable and makes me unable to trust what is being offered here. This AI has incredible potential, but that pricing strategy makes me think this is a cash grab at the moment. Would love to see this made more available for all to give a try.

Hi Olly!! Do you think the gap between when you speak and when you receive your response will improve? It makes it a little bit unnatural. This is an incredible tool but that would make it better!! Thanks.

This is really cool. I would like to try this program if they add Japanese.

The fact they all have a local accent when they speak English is pretty hilarious. Only thing is that there are some mistakes when it comes to pronunciation in French (so far). I didn't notice them nor in Spanish, neither in Portuguese, but they are not my native language, so I might just have missed them. Anyway, I think it's a very exciting tool that you are developing now. I will be following what's going on with this app very closely and try it for me soon (and, hopefully, improve my language skills). Cheers, and thanks a ton for the good work!

Is this capable of just having regular conversations in your language and slowly over time introducing a new word here and there and when you reach a certain point in vocabulary introduce concepts like word order or conjegations in a natural way? What I saw in this video was amazing but I'm curious on a slow immersion.

Fascinating possibilities!

Hi! Is it possible to try it out a couple of times before paying for a subscription? Thanks! Cool stuff!

This will definitely be a game changer, and the developers will make loads of money from us 😅 Although I can keep my languages “alive” by flying to continental Europe at least once a month to practise, but the output remains at A1-A2 through convo at the hotel, restaurants, and shops only. The input I can also practise in the UK whilst watching the TV & KZread in the target languages, which keeps my input at B1-C1. This AI is very exciting!

I'm curious to know more of the story behind how this came into being. Is that a possibility for a future video? Who all was involved in the creation & development? How long did it take? Which languages will be added in the future? (I'm hoping for Maori personally, but I realize there isn't a huge market for it...)

Congrats Olly! So all the information the AI gets it is from the internet, right? If I want to practice a certain language while asking it questions about a specific location and its touristic features among others.

I hope we get this as an app for IOS and Android in the future when its all polished up. It would also be nice if they added not as popular languages but still used, Ex: khmer and Swahili and cantonese

This is exactly what i need, except that i cannot afford it…. Now, I understand the cost of IT, so i see why the prices are where they are. It’s just unfortunately not what i can currently spend my money on. But i am genuinely happy to see tools like this becoming available. This is a game changer. Greetings from the Netherlands.

This is really impressive especially in Portuguese. I can't wait to practice my German with it and get my speaking to be more fluid.

It does look promising. There are are quite a few bugs to iron out, though. In the video, the French pronunciation is mostly 'off' and the grammatical explanation for "veuille/veuilles" is misleading. I've tried TeacherAI for Brazilian Portuguese and Russian for one month and there are still too many bugs and glitches. I'm going to give it some time for it to be developed further before I decide-or not-to reactivate my membership. I'm optimistic and confident that this will be a major game-changer in language learning.

Rapaz, fiquei surpreso ! Your portuguese is Level A ! congrats

Just signed up, but I did not have a chance for any test conversation, it is asking for making a subscription first. I don't think I will subscribe without a test period, even without a single test conversation!

Is there any trial before I commit even with 1-month subscription?

Would love to use this but is too pricy for me. Is mainly because of the exchange rate. $33 a month is a fair price but when converted to AUD thats $50 a month.
