Real-time, speech recognition-enabled conversation practice on a smartphone, even offline... this vision became a reality with Supiki, a leading iOS app for people learning English as a second language. The fully custom, media-rich app with ground-breaking features was supported by a purpose-built content management system and enterprise reporting tools.
Custom UI
The Supiki interface was custom designed and built throughout, with innovative interactive components and an impressive attention to detail.
Speech Recognition
One of Supiki's key innovations was the integration of embedded, offline speech recognition. Without taking up airtime or mobile data, users could practice their English conversational skills with an app that understood them and responded appropriately.
Multilingual
While Supiki's purpose was to help people learn English, it supported native speakers of many different languages. Its interface was available in Mandarin, Japanese, Korean and Spanish. Internationalization and localization were always at the forefront of the development process.
