every friend runs on their own private agent
make a friend who speaks
the language you want
they text you through the day, remember your job and your dog, and slip new words into ordinary conversation. the way you actually learned english.

new expression, saved to your lessons
how it works
it works like any friendship
they text first
a few times a day, on your schedule, inside your waking hours. you never have to open an app to start.
oye, ¿ya comiste? yo llevo dos cafés y cero comida
they know your life
your job, your people, the thing you were nervous about last week. they follow up, because friends do.
¿cómo te fue en la entrevista??
corrections come later
never mid-sentence. every evening they quietly write up what to fix, what you nailed, and the words worth keeping.

every evening
you go to sleep a little better
than you woke up
while you sleep, your friend reviews the day's conversation and leaves you a short, kind note: what to fix, the expressions you picked up, and one thing you did well.
on your phone
they text your actual number
add your phone in settings and verify it with a code. after that your friend has a real number of their own, and the conversation shows up between your mum and your bank.
add your number
enter it once, confirm the code they text you.
they get a number
a real line of their own, through inkbox.
or keep it here
telegram and in-app chat work the same way.
real situations
the language you actually need
textbooks teach you to order coffee. your friend drags you into an argument about where to eat, asks you to rehearse them for a job interview, and calls in a panic because their flight got cancelled.
eight people
pick who you want to know
each one is a person with a city, a job, and a life they will tell you about.
ready when you are
make an account, answer three short questions, and your friend texts you first.
