How does the free trial work?
Sign up with just your email—no credit card required. You'll get full access to Bennie for 2 weeks. Start learning immediately with daily personalized emails, instant feedback, and weekly progress reports. If you love it, choose a plan to continue. If not, no worries—your trial simply ends.
What languages can I learn?
Currently, Bennie supports Spanish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, and Mandarin Chinese. We're working on adding more languages based on user demand. Each language is taught by our AI that's been specifically trained on natural conversation patterns.
Can I cancel anytime?
Absolutely! There are no long-term contracts or cancellation fees. You can cancel your subscription at any time from your profile settings. If you cancel, you'll continue to have access until the end of your current billing period.
How much time do I need to commit each day?
Just 10-15 minutes a day! Read Bennie's email (2-3 minutes) and write a reply (5-10 minutes). That's it. The beauty of email learning is that you can fit it into your schedule whenever it's convenient—morning coffee, lunch break, or before bed.
Is Bennie suitable for complete beginners?
Yes! When you sign up, you'll tell us your current level. If you're a complete beginner, Bennie starts with the basics and gradually introduces new vocabulary and grammar. The AI adapts to your pace, ensuring you're always challenged but never overwhelmed.
What makes Bennie different from Duolingo or other apps?
Unlike gamified apps with repetitive exercises, Bennie teaches through natural conversation. You're learning by writing actual sentences and having real back-and-forth exchanges—just like you'd use the language in real life. Plus, everything happens in your inbox, so there's no app to remember to open.
Can I switch languages or change my plan?
Yes to both! You can switch your target language at any time from your profile settings. You can also upgrade from monthly to yearly (or vice versa) whenever you'd like. The change takes effect immediately or at the end of your current billing cycle.
What if I miss a day or need to pause?
No problem! Life happens. You can adjust your email frequency in settings (daily, every other day, or custom schedule). If you need a longer break, you can pause your subscription from the billing tab. Bennie picks up right where you left off when you're ready to continue.
