Bruno Godinho
Founder, Lingo Practice

Bruno Godinho is the founder and developer of Lingo Practice. After years of trying language apps that taught him to tap translations but never to hold a conversation, he built the tool he wanted: an AI tutor that explains corrections, spaced repetition that adapts to what you actually forget, and a learning loop designed for adults.

Lingo Practice exists because the dominant language apps optimize for engagement, not for output. Streak gamification keeps you opening the app; multiple-choice taps measure something โ€” but not whether you can speak. The team that built Duolingo published research showing this gap years ago. The market response was a more expensive tier with a chatbot bolted on.

Lingo Practice is built around the parts that move the needle: an AI tutor that lets you produce real sentences and corrects them in plain language, spaced repetition that adapts to what you actually forget, and a free tier you can build a daily routine on without paying.
