Built by a learner,for learners
Spokira exists because its founder struggled with the same problem you do: knowing French words but freezing when it's time to actually speak them.
From frustration to fluency
It started with a simple goal: whenever I'm in Paris, I want more people to smile at me when I speak French, not wince.
I had studied French. I knew vocabulary. I could read menus and understand movies. But the moment a real French person started talking, I froze. My mouth couldn't produce the sounds my brain knew were right.
Traditional apps kept drilling flashcards and grammar rules. But they never addressed the real problem: I needed to train my mouth, not my memory.
So I built Spokira. An app that uses the shadowing technique with real native French speakers and AI-powered feedback to help learners actually speak with confidence.
“The best way to learn to speak is to speak. Spokira makes that practice feel natural and achievable.”
