About TalkDrill
We’re building a fluency engine — not another English app.
Most apps teach you about English. TalkDrill is built around one thing: getting you to actually speak it, under real pressure, until it sticks — with AI tutors, guided practice, short lessons, peers and human tutors in one compounding loop.

Why most English apps fail
Millions can read and write English — and still freeze when it’s time to speak.
It’s not a knowledge gap; it’s a practice gap. Each of the usual fixes solves one piece and drops the rest.
The real problem isn’t teaching — it’s retention. People quit the moment they get stuck. TalkDrill is built so they never do.
Pure-AI apps
Cheap and scalable, but robotic. Learners lose motivation with no human on the other side.
Pure-content apps
Grammar and vocabulary drills. They teach you about English — not how to speak it under pressure.
Live-tutor apps
Effective, but expensive and hard to scale. Practice stops the moment the class ends.
Our moat
AI + human + peer, in one loop
Three learning modes most apps offer separately — combined, and feeding each other.
AI
Daily AI practice
Voice & video conversation every day, with instant, always-on feedback. Never wait for a slot.
1:1
Real human tutors
Certified coaches step in exactly where you get stuck — the human push AI alone can’t give.
PEER
Peer practice
Live sessions with learners worldwide — real conversation pressure, and one more stream of signal.
Every mode writes to one learner profile. The more you practise, the sharper both the AI and your tutor get — for you.
Why it’s hard to copy
The AI is the cheap part. The loop isn’t.
Data that compounds
Every tutor, AI and peer session enriches a per-learner profile no competitor can replicate — it only gets more accurate with use.
Already live & shipping
On the web, on Google Play and in colleges today, used by 30,000+ learners — not a pitch-deck concept.
The moat isn’t the AI — it’s the loop, and the data only we are collecting.

What we believe
The principles we build on
Speaking is a skill, not a subject
You don’t learn to swim by reading about water. Fluency comes from reps out loud — so practice is a conversation, and even our lessons end with you saying it.
Retention beats content
The apps with the most lessons aren’t the ones that make people fluent. We optimise for the day you come back, not the day you sign up.
Priced for everyone
A free-forever tier pulls you in, and affordable paid plans unlock the full loop. Confidence in English shouldn’t depend on your income.

The same loop — going deeper, and wider.
More courses
Learn starts with grammar and everyday spoken English. More courses are on the way, built the same way: short chapters that end with you speaking.
On every phone
TalkDrill runs on the web and Android today. An iPhone app is coming.
Beyond English
The loop is language-agnostic by design. Everything we build for English transfers to the next language — English is just the beachhead.
We’re building a fluency engine, not one more English app.
