Kind of! Our content was AI-generated, which is unfortunately a necessity if you want to compete with big services like Duolingo, but, on top of already being high-quality, it's now being refined and corrected every day with the help of volunteer Brazilians who are testing the app. Our goal is to make Falando profitable enough to hire natives to review it on a regular basis.

Most of our material as of now is based on high-quality text-to-speech tuned to Brazilian Portuguese but we are currently in the process of replacing all of it with recordings by Brazilian natives, with new ones being uploaded each week. Our goal is to to avoid using TTS wherever possible and replace it with native speech to ensure a more human-based listening experience.
