Blast Off: Kippy's in the App Store
by Steve
Have you ever learned a foreign language, only to forget it due to lack of practice?
Reached the diamond level on Duolingo but struggled to hold a real conversation?
"Learned" a "destination language" in a week for your travels?
If that's not you, feel free to keep scrolling 🙂. But if you're nodding along, I've got something exciting to share!
And for those interested in the ins and outs of product building, experiments, and data, I'll be sharing more about the ups and downs of this journey – follow me for updates! Like launching a product in two countries that are nothing like the rest of the world....
Last year, I dedicated my time to developing an AI language tutor, Kippy, aimed at helping language learners achieve fluency through engaging, unscripted conversations.
Following a successful 2-month pilot in Japan and South Korea, I'm thrilled to announce Kippy's global launch on the Apple AppStore (Android users, hang in there!).
Now, Kippy isn't here to overthrow Duolingo (at least not this year 😄), nor is it a substitute for an academic language degree. But, if you're looking to communicate in a new language confidently, Kippy could be your go-to.
❓Wondering what sets Kippy apart? Here's the rundown:
1️⃣ Engage in practical, everyday conversations - from casual chats to specific scenarios like ordering food, romantic dates, or navigating through immigration.
2️⃣ Speaking over typing - you're required to speak out loud (there's no possibility of typing).
3️⃣ Conversation guidance - hints and suggestions to keep you chatting.
4️⃣ Pronunciation checks - ensuring you sound just right.
5️⃣ Vocabulary tracking - know exactly how much you've learned over time.
6️⃣ Cost-effective - significantly cheaper than a human tutor, yet an invaluable asset for life.
❓Curious?
