HaoSay vs Software_Engineering

HaoSay is a Chinese speaking practice app built around curated city scenarios. Instead of only memorizing words or repeating fixed sentences, you practice Mandarin through guided city scenes, character roleplay, and real conversation tasks designed by HaoSay. Step into Shanghai, Chengdu, Beijing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and more. Order coffee, ask for directions, bargain, travel, chat with locals, and handle everyday moments in Chinese. What you can do with HaoSay: Talk with characters such as baristas, drivers, shop owners, travelers, and local residents. Practice in city scenes including cafes, metro stations, shopping streets, night markets, teahouses, and startup spaces. Use photo vocabulary to learn Chinese words from objects around you. Save useful words to your word bag and turn them into spoken mini dialogues. Practice freely with Aocheng, your Chinese speaking partner. Get feedback that helps you speak more naturally. HaoSay is built for learners who want to actually speak Chinese, not just study it. It helps you build confidence through short, useful, culturally grounded conversations. Your practice inputs, photo vocabulary results, and saved word cards are used for your private learning experience, not as public community posts. HaoSay includes free access and optional HaoSay Plus subscriptions. Plus opens the first three city routes, adds unlimited Aocheng chat and unlimited energy, adds more word expansion and mini dialogue practice, and gives you a larger word-card pocket. Later cities still unlock through route progress. HaoSay may request access to microphone, speech recognition, camera, and photo library features for speaking practice, photo vocabulary, and avatar setup. The app includes a Report & Safety entry for reporting unsafe content or behavior. Privacy Policy: https://haosay.chat/privacy Terms of Service: https://haosay.chat/terms
