Who it's for

  • Students who need an English or Japanese conversation practice partner. You can keep a relaxed conversation going with a character of whatever personality you want
  • Creators who want to build a novel or game character and talk to it. You can write the character setup yourself and publish it
  • People who want to practice by role-play with a set situation — an interview, a counseling session, a presentation

Drawbacks

  • It isn't for information search or work. Facts can be wrong and there are no sources
  • It's easy to get absorbed in the conversation, so teenagers' usage time needs managing. Check the age limits and guardian settings
  • The free plan puts you in a queue when busy, and the English screen can make settings feel unfamiliar

Getting started

  1. Sign up on the official site or app with a Google or Apple account. Enter your age accurately.
  2. Search for the partner you want — "English teacher", "interviewer" — or pick a popular character.
  3. Start the conversation. If you speak Korean, it mostly answers in Korean.
  4. If no character suits you, go to "Create" and write a name, personality, and speaking style to make your own.
  5. For study use, put "correct my mistakes" in the setup so you get corrections.
