I was inspired by the success of my other apps: GoDarija (for learning Moroccan Darija) and GoDarija Translator.
Users enjoyed them, but many struggled with pronunciation. That’s why I created GoDarija Speak, an AI-powered pronunciation app that completes my ecosystem and helps learners sound more authentic.

What I Learned

  • Using Gemini for speech analysis and pronunciation scoring
  • Structuring a subscription model using new paywall builder
  • Building for an under-documented language like Darija

How I Built It

  1. Speech Analysis with Gemini – process voice input and generate instant feedback
  2. Feedback & Scoring – rhythm, intonation, and word-by-word breakdowns
  3. UI/UX – mobile-first design tailored for learners
  4. Monetization – integrated RevenueCat for subscriptions

Challenges

  • Fine-tuning Gemini for nuanced pronunciation
  • Balancing simple vs detailed feedback
  • Ensuring smooth voice input and analysis
