Your AI language buddy for speaking Swedish

A language buddy (språkkompis) is someone you speak Swedish with to practise. Kompis is a language buddy on your phone: there whenever you want to talk, in the evening, before an important conversation or for five minutes on the bus.

What does an AI language buddy do?

Talks with you by voice

You speak, Kompis answers out loud. The text is shown too if you need it.

Rehearses what's coming

The job interview, the meeting at work, the health centre. Kompis plays the other person.

Remembers and follows up

With your consent, Kompis remembers what you tell it and asks afterwards how it went. You can see, edit or delete all of it.

No red pen

No grades and no points. Kompis says things back the natural way and keeps talking.

AI buddy or a human buddy?

Both matter. A human language buddy brings friendship and life in Sweden. Kompis is there when no one else is: in the middle of the night, before tomorrow’s interview, or when you want to practise the same thing once more. Many people use both.

Kompis (kompis.site) is an app for practising spoken Swedish. We have no connection to the association Kompis Sverige.

Questions

Is Kompis a real person?

What does it cost?

You can start for free.

Do I need to know a lot of Swedish?

No. You can ask Kompis to speak more slowly and get help in your language.

Is what I say stored?

Kompis never stores your voice. Kompis only remembers with your consent. You can see, edit or delete what Kompis remembers.

Can I use Kompis alongside a human language buddy?

Yes. Many people practise with Kompis before and after they meet.
