She holds real conversations, corrects you in context instead of from a textbook, remembers the mistakes you keep making, and adapts to how you actually speak. With Bestie Mode she drops the teacher act — she roasts you, hypes you up, and chats casually in your target language, so practice feels like texting a friend.Street Smart scenariosOver 100 playable, voiced real-life scenarios per language — opening a bank account, renting an apartment, doctor visits, registration offices — so you make the mistakes in the game, not at the bank.50 languagesGerman, Spanish, French, Dutch, Italian, Portuguese, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, Polish, Turkish, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Thai, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Russian, Arabic and Hindi.Coming soon — join the beta at language-lab.io.
