Voice-led Spanish learning. Exploring AI-generated content and conversational practice.
The idea
Audio courses teach well but never know if you’re right. Tap-and-match apps interact but don’t teach you to speak. Habla sits between the two: a voice-led app that listens when you speak and gives immediate feedback.
The approach
A proven audio teaching method with one meaningful upgrade. The interface is almost invisible: a waveform, a state label, a text area. Everything else (timing, transitions, feedback variation) is driven by a single state machine so the interaction feels like a conversation, not an app.
Status
In development. Core loop is working: speech recognition, fuzzy matching, and the full state machine running against a test lesson.
Next: an AI content pipeline that generates lesson scripts and produces audio with ElevenLabs, expanding from one lesson to a full course.
