Fluento puts you on a short voice call with a stranger who is learning the same language you are. Nobody is grading you. Nobody is recording it. You both sound a bit uncertain, and that is exactly the point.

There are two ways in, and neither of them is a queue you wait in silently.
A short level check places you on the CEFR scale — A1 to C2, the same six bands a language school uses. It is a starting point, not a verdict, and you can change it whenever you like.
Tap Match and you are paired with whoever else is waiting and learning the same language. Or open the lobby, read the rows, and call somebody yourself.
Hold the microphone key and your phone transcribes and translates what you want to say, so you can read it aloud instead of giving up on the sentence.
Every feature here exists because speaking a half-learned language to a stranger is hard.
No video and no typing on a call. Nobody has to tidy the room or decide what their face is doing — there is just the language, which is difficult enough.
Audio goes straight between the two phones and never reaches a Fluento server. There is nothing to record, and nothing to leak later.
Chat and story translation run on the device itself. The message never leaves it — no server sees what you wrote, and it works with no signal.
Six bands of hand-written stories per language. Drag the reading lens across a line and it translates word by word under your finger, and reads it aloud.
You are listed in every language you study, each carrying its own level. Switch the active one and the lobby, the ranking board and your profile all follow.
A block is enforced on the server, not hidden on your screen. They cannot call you, message you, or be matched with you — in either direction.
The first two thousand people to open the lobby are given a permanent, numbered founding place. There are exactly two thousand of them, they are handed out in order, and when they are gone there will not be more.
Fluento puts you on a call with a stranger who is trying to speak a language they have not finished learning. That takes some nerve. These are the rules that keep it worth doing — the same ones written inside the app.
The person on the other end is speaking a language they are still learning, to a stranger, out loud. Give them room to finish a sentence. Correcting somebody is help; making them feel small for needing it is not.
Nothing aimed at who somebody is — their country, religion, gender, accent or level. Threats and abuse end an account, not a call.
No sexual talk, no nudity, no advances. Nobody came here for that, and the fact that they did not say so is not permission.
Your own photo, your own name, one account per person. A profile built out of somebody else's pictures is the quickest way off the app.
Fluento is not a place to advertise, to grow a following, or to move somebody onto another app. Nobody in the lobby asked for any of it.
No genuine language partner asks a stranger for money, gift cards or bank details. If somebody does, report them — that is exactly what the queue is for.
Do not record a call, screenshot a chat, or repost either. Two people practising badly in private is the whole point; an audience ruins it.
A review sits on somebody's profile for everybody to read and outlives the call. Rate how they were to talk to, not how good their grammar was.
Reports go to a queue only Fluento can read — never the person reported. Accounts that break these rules can be removed from the app.
Fluento is in beta on Android and iPhone. Write to us and we will send you a build and a founding number.
