Our Story
Language learning combines it all. Logic, memory, listening, empathy, muscle memory, interpretation, and cultural backgrounds are all part of the journey.
With Lingophant it is time to make natural learning much more effective.
We’re based in Vienna under strict data privacy laws, and are setting up a remote academy in the beautiful country of Georgia.
Why Lingophant?
As an exchange student in Tel Aviv, I would’ve loved to learn Hebrew or Arabic in six months. I joined a classroom course and tried all mobile apps out there. But no way I’d become fluent with them. My goal was always to have fun in the language quickly.
Because as soon as you’re having fun, it becomes easier to learn. Learning languages can be more fun than watching series or movies.
Quite a nice vision
We’re more than just an app, we help create excellent courses. And we give creators a possibility to sell a course with us, without being overwhelmed with all the required skills and set-ups.
Course revenues are fairly shared between the course creators, the people in videos who give us their time, face and story, the people doing the work, and Lingophant as a company.
We’re a global and independent company.
Lingophant has worked with people from Brazil, Germany, Egypt, Italy, Kazakhstan, Chile, Russia, Georgia, the US and many more. We wanna be a start-up that does things a little differently.
100% of our company is founder owned, who used his salary and savings to fund this. We’re dreaming of creating a system that gives 3-month scholarships for people to live anywhere and work on language learning and personal development.
We will treat your data like we want companies to treat our own data, meaning that we won’t sell data, and won’t use your private voice data for e.g. training AI models. We use a simple but effective stack of technologies, also to keep costs low.
Our mission is to make language learning more enjoyable than Netflix. Ultimately, we want to make the world a better place through education, technology, and collaboration.
