A case study on end to end development of a social language learning app.
Introduction:
- We asked ChatGPT the major problem with language barrier and the response was as follows “With over 7,000 languages spoken in the world, it can be particularly problematic in international business and diplomacy, as well as for immigrants and refugees. Although technology has made communication easier, it is not always accurate and may not capture the nuances of language and culture”
- Although technology has made communication easier, it’s not always accurate! But that’s impossible because technology is supposed to be right!
- Our client understood the gap in the technology and came to us with the challenge in hand. It’s not the problem with technology, it’s the problem with the way it’s presented.
- Any language learning platform always teaches languages in a traditional way, not the way it’s spoken.
- Every place has a different way of speaking a language, learning English in India never made it easier to understand the same in Australia.
- This could be solved by learning the way any language is spoken! And this product makes it happen.
- We also understood that with any language learning platform user engagement fades over time.
