Pingo AI
AI conversation practice: spoken conversations with an AI companion that builds a plan around your goals, corrects you as you go and remembers your mistakes.
Is Pingo AI worth it?
Yes, if you already know some of the language and want to speak it every day, on topics you choose, with an AI that corrects you and remembers what tripped you up last time.
What it costs. Pingo AI publishes no price on the web. Apple's US store lists Pingo Pro from $14.99 to $99.99, without saying which is monthly and which yearly.
What's free. No free tier; a free trial before you subscribe. Pingo publishes no refund terms of its own.
Skip it if you want a course that explains grammar step by step, or a person to talk to: Pingo is an AI you speak with, its answers can be wrong, and it is free only for a trial.
What learners rate it. 4.6 out of 5 from 15,629 ratings in Apple's US App Store and 4.7 from 204,960 on Google Play (Language Learning: Pingo AI), checked 16 Oct 2026.

How a Pingo AI lesson works
- What you do
- Tell Pingo what you want to practise, from ordering in a café to a job interview, and talk it through aloud; it answers, teaches what you need and corrects your pronunciation and grammar as you go. The next session picks up from the level, mistakes and words it remembers.
- What comes back
- AI: the app answers what you say and points out mistakes.
- Not included
- A live teacher or stated CEFR levels.

Plans and prices
Every consumer plan on Pingo AI's own pricing page or app-store listing, in US dollars unless marked. Per month is the plan price divided by its term. Each price is what the seller was charging on the day we checked it. When a plan was on sale, its regular price is shown under the sale price; a crossed-out figure that is only a comparison, such as a year at the monthly rate, is in the plan's note.
| Plan | Billing | Price | Per month | Covers |
