The AI adapts to every learner

In every simulation, the AI adjusts the conversation in real time to the person speaking.

  • It adapts to the learner's level: pace, vocabulary and complexity evolve along with them.
  • It takes the learner's first language into account to anticipate common pronunciation and phrasing difficulties.
  • It gives constructive feedback based on the mistakes actually made, without judgment.
  • It answers the learner's questions during the simulation and rephrases as many times as needed.
