Lua

Tired of Duolingo? I built an AI app that teaches you a language by actually speaking it. I've always wanted to learn Italian, but Duolingo and the other apps didn't work for me. I didn’t need streaks or avatars—I needed to speak out loud, practice real-life conversations, and get instant feedback. So I built Lua — an AI app that lets you learn a language the way it actually sticks: by talking. You speak with realistic AI voices, get corrections in real time, and improve as you go. No silly gamification—just natural, engaging conversations that make learning fun and authentic. I’ve been using Lua for just 2 weeks, and I’ve already gone from near-zero to confidently having casual conversations. It feels like magic. I'm convinced this is how language learning should always have been—previously it meant hiring an excellent tutor and now you can just talk with Lua. It’s completely free. Give it a try—I hope it helps you finally make real progress in the language you’re learning! Implementation note: built using GPT-4, ElevenLabs, and Whisper—entirely no-code with Windsurf.
