Yabberoo takes a different approach to language learning. It is designed to be used while your hands are busy and you're doing other things. Whether that's a chore or an errand, or relaxing and playing a game. We know that schedules can be busy, and language learning can be boring. Instead of needing to carve out time specifically for it, we want to fit into the gaps and the moments you already spend with your mind idle. Yabberoo is a real-time, artificially intelligent, language tutor and conversation partner. It is powered by Gemini Live, and employs numerous techniques in the background to further your language learning. You simply speak, and it responds. It corrects you gently, introduces new words and topics, remembers your progress, and tries to have you recall vocabulary that you're on the verge of forgetting. The result is that you'll progress without even realizing it. You're not making time for language learning. It just fits into your day.
