Most language apps have you tapping. SpeakPair has you talking. SPEAK WITH A REAL PERSON Get matched with someone learning the same language and talk for 10-15 minutes. No lesson plans, no scripts โ€” just a conversation. Your camera stays off until both of you turn it on, so you can start with your voice alone and switch on video only when you both want to. If you would rather not be paired with strangers of another gender, you can ask to be matched with your own. It is optional and never shown on your profile. SHADOWING: 60 LESSONS IN ENGLISH AND GERMAN Shadowing means repeating a speaker almost word for word โ€” copying their rhythm, stress and melody, not just the words. It is one of the fastest ways to stop sounding like a textbook. Each lesson runs through six stages: โ€ข Listen โ€” hear the whole clip once, no text โ€ข Read & Listen โ€” the same clip with the words in front of you โ€ข Guided Shadow โ€” phrase by phrase, pausing so you can say it back โ€ข Shadow โ€” speak along while it keeps playing โ€ข Listen to Yourself โ€” your own recording, played straight after the original โ€ข Full Run โ€” the whole clip at real speed, no text Speed and how much text you see follow your level, and you can change either at any time. English: Daily Life, Restaurant, Science & Space German: Alltag, Im Restaurant, Gesellschaft & Arbeit Ranks open as your level reaches them, or as you finish the one below. AI COACH WHEN NOBODY IS AROUND Practise with a voice AI partner that talks back in real time. Useful at 2am, or before your first conversation with a real person. VIDEO AI COACH Practise English or German face to face with an AI coach. Turn on your camera with permission, see live captions and practise at your level. After a conversation, review feedback on demonstrated strengths and mistakes. The next session uses your saved learning goals for targeted exercises. If you tell the coach your preferred name, it can remember it for later sessions. AI feedback can be inaccurate and is not a certified language assessment. Each video session lasts up to 2 minutes. Your account includes a free trial of up to 2 minutes in total, consumed after 30 seconds of connected time across attempts. Continue with an optional monthly plan containing 20 or 120 AI video minutes. These minutes are separate from conversations with other learners and the voice AI Coach. Prices appear in your local currency before purchase. Subscriptions renew monthly until cancelled in App Store. Unused minutes do not roll over; connection time counts towards your allowance. SPEAK SPRINT AND SPEAK BALLOON Short daily drills for the days you only have five minutes. HALL OF FAME Weekly boards for speaking, shadowing and Speak Balloon. HONEST ABOUT WHAT IT DOES NOT DO There is no pronunciation score anywhere in Shadowing. Nothing is analysing your speech yet, and a number would only pretend otherwise. Your recording is stored on your device, never uploaded, and every lesson works fully if you decline microphone access. Conversations between learners are not recorded by SpeakPair. AI video practice requires separate consent: audio and enabled camera video are processed by our service providers. Transcripts, feedback, learning goals and spoken-name preferences may be retained to support follow-up practice. See our privacy policy for details. 18+.
