About Us
Our mission is to revolutionize the way individuals learn, starting with language.
Learning a new language can profoundly impact one's life, unlocking opportunities to explore diverse cultures, advance careers, and connect with new communities. With two billion learners worldwide, accessing the most effective learning method—one-on-one tutoring—remains a challenge, having seen little innovation over the years. At Speak, we're creating a human-level, AI-powered tutoring experience right in your pocket. Our conversation-first platform allows learners to engage actively, receive immediate feedback, and advance through meticulously crafted lessons, leading them from beginners to confident speakers across various languages.
Since our launch in South Korea in 2019, Speak has emerged as the top language learning app, catering to learners in multiple markets and over 15 languages. With more than $150 million in venture capital from prestigious investors like OpenAI, Accel, Founders Fund, and Khosla Ventures, we have established ourselves as a leading AI company. Our talented team is distributed across San Francisco, Seoul, Tokyo, Taipei, and Ljubljana.
