tota helps people learn languages.

Traditional language learning apps rely on visual learning and gamification to get users to learn languages. However while users might build a vocabulary, they often struggle with having an actual simple conversation. tota completely redefines this approach by getting you to speak your first word almost immediately. You learn through conversation. 

From personal experience, I have found that the only time I learn a language is when I try to speak it. I have lived in Bangalore for over three years but the only time I picked up even a little Kannada was when I found a friend who had the patience to have broken conversations with me.

tota uses AI agents to give everyone a patient friend in their pocket. It currently supports 20+ Indian languages.

I will be adding a lot more features around guided learning paths, gamification, community learning challenges and much more.

This project is in the Multilinguality and Consumer tracks
