AI-powered Korean speaking practice for adult foreign learners
Voice-based roleplay and interactive speaking support
Currently in MVP development and testing
Problem
Learners need more than textbook Korean.
Many Korean learners can study grammar and vocabulary, but they
still lack realistic speaking practice, personalized feedback, and
real-time support when preparing for actual conversations in Korea.
Solution
A voice-first, scenario-based learning experience.
SKAI Buddy helps learners practice spoken Korean through interactive
roleplay, practical travel and everyday-life scenarios, contextual
support, and AI-generated speaking feedback.
Core experience
