Introducing Polyglob: Language Learning, One Delightful Story at a Time

We’re excited to introduce Polyglob, a language learning app we’ve built for busy people who want to pick up a new language without overhauling their entire schedule.

Meet Polly

Polly is our friendly mascot who guides you through your language learning journey. She’s a reminder that learning should be fun—not a chore.

The Problem with Language Learning

Most language learning apps ask too much. They want you to commit to 30-minute daily sessions, maintain streaks that punish you for missing a day, and grind through repetitive exercises that feel more like work than learning.

We asked ourselves: what if language learning could be different? What if it was genuinely enjoyable, fit into the cracks of your day, and actually stuck?

Meet Polyglob

Polyglob delivers personalized language lessons straight to your inbox, three times a week. Each lesson takes about 5 minutes to complete and includes:

Engaging Stories: Learn through dialogues and narratives that feel real, not robotic textbook phrases
Clear Audio: Hear how words are actually pronounced
Cultural Context: Understand not just what to say, but when and why
Interactive Quizzes: Reinforce what you’ve learned with quizzes that explain what you did well and what needs improvement

Why Stories?

Research shows that contextual learning—learning words and phrases within meaningful narratives—leads to better retention than isolated vocabulary drills. When you learn that a phrase is used in a specific social situation, you remember it better and know when to use it.

Built for Busy People

We designed Polyglob specifically for people who:

Have 5 minutes a day (not 30)
Want sustainable progress (not burnout)
Appreciate quality over quantity
Care about cultural authenticity
