Ulpan AI is a Hebrew learning app with one focus — improving your conversational Hebrew. From your first few words, the app drops you straight into conversation with Maya, your AI chat partner. Text or voice note her like a messaging app, and she corrects you as you go, like a supportive teacher. When she uses a word you don't know, add it straight from the chat to your vocabulary, then cement it in long-term memory with the built-in spaced-repetition flashcards. TALK TO MAYA, BY TEXT OR VOICE Open a thread and talk about anything. Maya answers in natural, everyday Hebrew, with niqqud and a translation one tap away, and audio you can replay at any speed. Send her a voice note and get one back. See a word you don't know? Save it straight to your vocabulary list. GO LIVE Live mode is as close as it gets to a real Hebrew conversation, with a partner who never loses patience. Choose from five partners, and slow the speech down to whatever pace you need. Set your Hebrew level in Settings — Beginner, Intermediate or Advanced — and every feature in the app tailors itself to that. ROLE-PLAY REAL SITUATIONS Order coffee in Tel Aviv, barter at Shuk HaCarmel, or talk a lost delivery driver to your door over the phone. Twelve scenarios in all — and some of them open with someone calling you, so the real thing doesn't catch you off guard. VERB TABLES AND GRAMMAR Search any Hebrew verb and see every tense, binyan and relevant prepositions laid out with niqqud and English. Play back every form to hear how it's spoken and practice your own pronunciation. Then take a quick quiz on the very verb you're working on. You build real command of the grammar, and your speech loosens up. SLANG AND PHRASES PEOPLE ACTUALLY USE A library of over 250 everyday phrases you'll hear all the time in Israel. תכל'ס, חבל על הזמן, לא לעניין — sorted by how common they are, each with its literal meaning, audio, and a real example sentence. Add any phrase to your vocab and start sounding more Israeli. SMART FLASHCARDS AND STORIES Adaptive flashcards mix new, learning and mastered words, so you review the ones you're about to forget instead of the ones you already know. Hear a word in a native voice, record yourself, and play them back to back. When you want a lighter session, drop into a choose-your-path story narrated by Maya — reading (or listening) practice that doesn't feel like studying. HOW THE PIECES CONNECT Talk, hit a word you don't have, save it, drill it on flashcards, then go back into a conversation and use it. Every round adds words and fixes them in place. The verb and phrase libraries are there whenever you want to go deeper. WHO IT'S FOR Anyone learning modern, spoken Hebrew — whether you're meeting the alphabet for the first time or you read well but want to speak more fluently. Reading isn't required — there's audio for everything, plus an English translation throughout. FROM THE FOUNDER I moved to Israel in 2011 with barely a word of Hebrew. I know how isolating it is when you can't really connect with people, and how challenging a language Hebrew is to learn. I'm still learning it :) I've taught Hebrew since 2014, and Ulpan AI is the tool I wanted back then and never had. — Teacher Mike
