Tavi connects directly to ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini to create personalized lessons in real time.

Clio teaches practical AI skills in short, hands-on lessons - in Arabic. IMPORTANT: all lessons and the app interface are in ARABIC. This listing is in English so Arabic speakers browsing an English storefront can find it. NEW IN SEPTEMBER 2026: The AI Model Guide, in Arabic, covers GPT-6 Astra, Claude Opus 5.5 and Fable 5.1, Gemini 3.8 and Grok 4.7, and how to pick the right model. NEW: WHICH AI SHOULD I USE? Pick the job, from writing and coding to research, images or video, and Clio names the model to use today and why, with two good alternatives. Kept up to date as new models launch. NEW: CERTIFICATES Finish a course and get a certificate with your name on it, ready to share. ALSO INSIDE - Prompt Lab: a real job, then build the prompt line by line from tiles you tap. Graded out of 100, with the prompt a pro would have sent. Ten briefs, 200 tiles. - Paths: four goal-shaped routes through the courses, not a catalogue. - Daily questions: five questions from your own lessons, about a minute, so the streak survives a busy day. - On a wide screen: a sidebar instead of a tab bar, the question beside the card that taught it, and Split View alongside another app. Every lesson takes about two minutes: read a short idea, then practise it straight away on a real prompt. Progress is saved on your device. WHAT YOU LEARN - How to write prompts that actually get the answer you wanted - Working with ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini - Using AI for writing, study, and everyday work - Checking AI output instead of trusting it blindly HOW IT WORKS - Short lessons with a practice step after each one - Tap-to-answer quizzes, no typing drills - Your streak and progress stay on your device Free to start. An optional Pro upgrade unlocks the full course. Clio Pro is a monthly or yearly subscription with a 7-day free trial. It renews automatically at the end of each period until cancelled, and can be cancelled any time in your App Store settings.
