We help language learners boost their confidence & get fluent fast by practicing with AI.
If you’ve ever learnt a language, you’ve probably spent hours memorizing vocabulary or doing infinite grammar exercises only to then realize you can’t really… speak the language.
The Univerbal app helps you get confident to speak by practicing with real-life, open conversations with an AI conversation partner that adapts to your answers and your level. Most importantly, never judges you!
Your personal AI Tutor creates a language study plan combining both the language skills you’d like to work towards, based on CEFR language education standards and the conversation topics you’re interested in. No two study plans are the same because no two language learning journeys are the same.

People learn a language to be able to speak it, but they end up memorizing vocabulary and doing boring grammar exercises and in the process, forget or they get too shy to actually practice speaking
Practicing with native speakers can feel like a burden, language tutors can soon get expensive and using some language apps can only get you so far.
We’re based in Switzerland: the country with 4 official languages🇨🇭 so it was only natural to try to solve this problem by building an AI-powered language learning app to help everyone increase their confidence to speak a new language.
Univerbal was born out of our own frustration as language learners (initially Philipp’s as he was learning Greek to connect to his Cypriot family heritage). It was obvious that the only way to get better was to speak, but it became both difficult to find the time for tutor sessions and very expensive 💸
Univerbal gives everyone access to a conversation partner and language tutor that’s customized to their own needs.
With the Univerbal app, each user gets a personal AI Language Tutor that creates a study plan based on the language goals they wants to work towards and the topics they’re interested in talking about.
Developed in collaboration with the Language Department at the University of Zürich, this ensures that everyone gets the language training based on CEFR language education standards, that’s also personalized to their own needs, skills and interests!
No two study plans are the same.
Users can practice with real-life conversations like ordering coffee or going for a job interview, get help from their AI Language Tutor in their own language and practice with short vocabulary exercises.
