Langotalk is the most advanced AI Chatbot built especially for language learners. Built with gamification in mind, you can chat or speak with multiple friendly bots about things you love, and get instant feedback on your grammar.
Hi Everyone! Super excited to be launching my first product on PH. 😀
Langotalk is probably the 4th/5th AI-related product I'm building since DALL-E came out, and definitely the one I invested in the most. I'm a solo founder and I got a little help from my super professional friends to build/ideate it.
My passion was always building B2C products that many people love, especially in education, because they can really affect people's lives for the better. A friend suggested this idea while I was working on a more general AI Chatbot product, and it seemed like the perfect pivot for me to work on. He was right, ChatGPT came out and made my original idea much less needed.
A little bit about the problem:
After talking to dozens of people learning a language, I realized that finding a good language pal is a huge pain point. People are excited to practice their language, but don't have enough people in their lives to do it with. While they had some good experiences with language exchange websites, they also raised a lot of issues there. I realized that AI could be an excellent solution for them, and after looking into similar products, I decided it can have a big impact on a lot of people, and it's worth my time and money to build it.
Since then, Langotalk was already used by over 5,000 learners, and we're just getting started :) We're starting to get some really amazing feedback from our users, and there's still so much to build and value to add.
Can't wait to hear your feedback and see how to make it even better!
Also always happy to discuss collaborations of all sorts.
@arielverbz Congratulations on launching Langotalk!
Your use of gamification and friendly bots is an exciting approach to making language learning fun and engaging for users.
I also launched free illustrations design today. Give it a try.
@arielverbz hey 👋!
I loved the UI and the simplicity to explain how it works! Congrats on the launch.
I noticed your website says it helps people to learn a language 6x faster by talking to an AI.
How did you come to that number? Is there any study/research behind that?
@arielverbz Congratulations on the launch! Your product looks amazing, and I can't wait to try it out. Best of luck with the launch, and I'm excited to see how your product grows and evolves in the future!
Howdy buddies? Fantastic work on getting Langotalk on Product Hunt! I'm going to check out this product. I've only got one inquiry. Which languages does Langotalk support?
@denis_galka Hi, thanks a lot!
It currently supports English, Spanish, French, German, Dutch and Italian.
More languages are in testing mode: Portuguese, Japanese and Mandarin (Chinese).
We take requests as well haha.
@arielverbz can you PLEASE let me know when you add Japanese? 🙏🏻 I use ChatGPT to practice Japanese already and it works pretty well, but I'd like to try having a separate "app" to go to for language practice + the build in grammar tips sound helpful.
@simon_s_j Hi Simon! We cover English, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, and German. More languages should be added this week once we make sure it's accurate enough.
It's free to try with a daily limit, but a subscription opens up new features, the yearly plan is currently $59.99 a year after a 7-day free trial.
@simon_s_j@arielverbz consider mentioning the price upfront. It feels really scammy if you don't mention the price at all (visitors assume it's free) and then, AFTER you make an account, it tells you you'll need to pay 60$.
Congrats on the launch! Product is great! It's an innovative solution to a real problem that a lot of people face when learning a new language, and it's already made an impact on the lives of thousands of people. I'm excited to see where it goes from here.
@andrewalex Thank you! If I'm not mistaken, the feature you're talking about is a feature for native apps, Langotalk is currently a web app so you can simply increase font size in the browser 🙏🏼
@arielverbz Thanks for your reply Ariel. I checked it on my iPhone. It’s usable with no more than 125% zoom however some things are overlapped. Also, I didn’t find a button to speak text, it’s a pain to select text then find and choose that command in the menu.
Anyway, I like the idea and I’m sure everything is just beginning. Good luck!
@andrewalex Thanks! I will definitely check it out and see if there's a way to improve it :)
Switching from text to voice should be available in the chat's top bar for subscribers / under a free trial. Feel free to email me at hi@arielverber.com and I'd be glad to help more.
I'm thrilled to see Langotalk featured on Product Hunt! Back in December, I had the honor of watching Ariel present Langotalk live at the Microsoft Generate AI Conference in Tel Aviv, and I've been blown away by the product ever since. As someone who speaks four languages, I've tried Langotalk in multiple languages, and it feels like I'm having a conversation with a compassionate and caring human being. The realism of the experience is unmatched, and I truly believe that Langotalk is the best way to practice and stay up-to-date with my language skills. I'm excited to share my positive experience with the Product Hunt community and can't wait to see others benefit from Langotalk as well!
@philippe_bensadon22 Thanks Philippe! You were the first person to subscribe haha 😍
Since then there were more, but it was encouraging to see that people believed in what I was doing ❤️
@arielverbz Congratulations on the launch of your first product! Good luck with Langotalk . I totally agree with you on this one - "finding a good language pal is a huge pain point"
@alexey_yar Thanks Alexey! We currently support and have content for 6 languages: English, Spanish, French, Italian, German, and Dutch. There are many requests for more languages, so we plan to add a few more this week.
Congratulations ony our launch! 🚀 I think this is one of the more useful and grounded approaches to leveraging chat based AI tools currently out there. The interface is very nice and clean, it draws people in and doesn't distract you. I more see this tool for people who have some understanding of the language they want to practice so as to maintain a conversation 🗣️
If I'm a complete beginner who wants to learn a new language, does the AI language model adapt to my level? For example, if I ask a simple question, does it generate a long answer that I might not understand?
@nuric Hi nuric, thanks a lot!
Currently, my product's focus is to help more intermediate learners. I wouldn't recommend it for complete beginners.
To hold a basic conversation you need to work on some vocabulary and grammar skills, and there are plenty of wonderful apps for that. Once you reach a level where you can hold a basic conversation, I believe it's a very good option.
For beginners, AI is also good at helping you understand things, such as 'What is the correct way to say __________ in Spanish?'. I'm exploring ways to add value for different levels as well.
Congratz on the launch Ariel! Loving the onboarding and the language correction feature.
Brilliant work.
Learning and practicing new languages is all about building a habit, so I'm bullish on AI & chat bots making a difference there!
My hobby is teaching English, and I usually chat in English with students on various matters in addition to my lessons. Chatting is a very powerful thing for learning, chatting is an unobtrusive but super useful practice of written language, which is much more difficult than spoken language.
I've tested your product and it's wow! From the idea to the realization.
I'll send my students to chat with a fairly educated bot ;)
Thnx!
I've been using Langotalk for a few weeks now and I'm blown away by how much it's helped me improve my language skills. The gamification aspect makes it really fun and addictive to use!
As someone who's always struggled with language learning, I can honestly say that Langotalk has made a huge difference for me. It's so much more engaging than traditional study methods.
