You've tried the green owl. You've matched flashcards. You've completed 47 lessons and still freeze when someone actually talks to you. That's because most language apps teach you to READ a language. SpeakSwipe teaches you to SPEAK one. โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€” HERE'S WHAT'S DIFFERENT Swipe through 10-second video lessons. Real conversations, real pronunciation, real cultural moments โ€” set in vibrant Vietnamese street life with elders who speak flawless English, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Spanish, French, and German. Then do the one thing other apps skip: open your mouth and say it back. SpeakSwipe listens, scores your pronunciation with Gemini 2.5 multimodal AI, and tells you exactly what to fix. Every. Single. Phrase. โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€” THE SPEAKSWIPE METHOD SWIPE โ€” Watch a 10-second video of a real phrase SPEAK โ€” Repeat it out loud (yes, actually out loud) SCORE โ€” AI rates your pronunciation 0-100 REPEAT โ€” Fix what's off, nail the accent That's it. No grammar trees. No cartoon characters. No 20-minute lessons you'll skip anyway. โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€” WHO THIS IS FOR - You can READ English but can't ORDER coffee in it - You've "studied" Japanese for a year but never spoken it out loud - You're traveling next month and need survival phrases NOW - You're bored of gamified apps that never ask you to talk - You want to sound like a local, not a textbook โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€” WHAT YOU GET - 10-second video clips set in real Vietnamese cultural settings - AI pronunciation scoring with specific feedback (Gemini 2.5) - Word-level captions synced to speech - Bilingual subtitles โ€” toggle on/off - Daily streak tracking and reminders - Tap any phrase to repeat, slow it down, or practice - 7 target languages: English, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Spanish, French, German - 8 caption languages: Vietnamese, English, Chinese, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, French, German - Free tier: 10 lessons/day. Premium: unlimited โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€” THE UNCOMFORTABLE TRUTH Language apps are a $15 billion industry because they make you FEEL like you're learning without the uncomfortable part โ€” actually speaking. SpeakSwipe is the uncomfortable part. But it's also the part that works. 1 minute a day. 6 phrases. Out loud. Scored. That's how you stop "learning" a language and start speaking one. โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€” Download SpeakSwipe. Open your mouth. Get uncomfortable.
