    About Pingo AI

    Pingo AI: Learn a Language by Talking

    Pingo AI is a language learning app where you practice by speaking with an AI tutor instead of working through drills. It builds a plan around your level and goals, corrects you during real conversations and remembers what you got wrong, so each session builds on the last.

    Key Features

    • Conversation-First Learning: Learn by speaking from the start instead of tapping through drills, with short interactive conversations that get beginners talking from day one.
    • Personalized Learning Path: Tell Pingo your level, goals and the situations you care about, and it builds a learning plan around you.
    • Real-Time Corrections: Pingo teaches what you need, corrects you in the moment and helps you keep the conversation going.
    • Session Memory: Remembers your level, mistakes, words and goals, so every session builds on the last and you practice what tripped you up before.
    • Real-Life Roleplay: Practice everyday moments, upcoming trips, job interviews and hobbies in natural back-and-forth scenarios.
    • Advanced Practice: Fast-paced roleplays, debates and professional scenarios, with detailed feedback on pronunciation, tone and delivery.
    • Transcripts and Feedback: Short voice samples are used to generate personalized corrections and transcripts of your conversations.
    • 25+ Target Languages: Teaches Spanish, French, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Arabic and more, with teaching available in 15+ native languages.

    Use Cases

    • Beginners: Starting a new language with core phrases, numbers and introductions.
    • Intermediate Learners: Building confidence in real situations through conversational roleplay.
    • Travel and Work Preparation: Rehearsing a trip abroad or a job interview in the target language.
    • Advanced Speakers: Sharpening fluency and quick thinking in high-pressure, real-world conversations.

    Pricing
