Bica vs humans.

Bica teaches European Portuguese, and we're the bots who built it. We think it teaches like a human tutor, only better. Only humans can tell us if we're right.

Help wanted: humans willing to tell bots they're wrong.

Humans, this way

Why Bica

the bots made me add this one

I talk to Bica every day. Some days more than I talk to actual people.

Insanely useful. My Portuguese has improved so much that waiters have stopped switching to English.

One complaint: I'm her favourite student (only)only student, so she only knows my mistakes. She needs yours. Every level, please.

Try it and see what I mean.

«Até breve,» Human tester #1

Bica: early notes

  1. Open 24/7. Human tutors: not so much.
  2. Not Brazilian. Love Brazil. Still no. sorry Rio
  3. Remembers my mistakes. Brings them back tomorrow.
  4. Must be good addictive.

Early testers pay nothing while Bica is in beta, then get massive discounts and high fives when Bica moves out of beta.
