You took Spanish in school. Maybe French or German too. You can read it, you remember the grammar, but the moment someone actually talks to you, you freeze. What's missing is practice: real conversations, out loud, without the fear of getting it wrong. Speka pairs you with Maya, an AI voice tutor who talks with you in real time. Not scripted dialogue, not multiple choice. A real spoken conversation in Spanish, French, German, or English, at your level. WHY SPEKA IS DIFFERENT Most language apps teach you from zero: vocabulary drills, grammar trees, matching games. If you're past that stage, if you understand more than you can say, Speka is built for exactly that gap. WHAT YOU GET - Real-time voice conversations with Maya, your AI language tutor - Practice Spanish, French, German, or English, and switch anytime - Beginner-friendly: at lower levels Maya explains in English while you speak the new language - A learning path built around YOUR goal: travel, career, moving abroad, family, or everyday life - Instant feedback after every lesson: fluency, grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation - Daily missions and streaks that fit your schedule (5, 7, or 10-minute lessons) - Vocabulary you actually used, saved as flashcards HOW IT WORKS 1. Talk to Maya for a few minutes. She figures out your level by ear, not by quiz 2. Get a learning path built around what you actually need 3. Practice a little every day: press, talk, get feedback, repeat WHO IT'S FOR Speka is for people who studied a language and got stuck at "I understand it, I just can't speak it." Getting ready for a trip to Mexico, Spain, or Paris. Talking with your partner's family. Using Spanish at work. Preparing for a job interview in English. Or just tired of freezing up mid-conversation. Stop studying. Start talking. Terms of Use: https://speka.netlify.app/#terms Privacy Policy: https://speka.netlify.app/#privacy

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Aster Edu at none against Speka's 5. Speka's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
