One of the major hurdles to speaking an additional language is self-consciousness. The CaptINI platform offers a selection of curated topics and lessons that allow users to practice speaking with a pre-trained AI model. That means they can flex their Icelandic muscles without fear of judgment or 'being imperfect'.
The system provides users with corrective feedback—how they can adjust their pronunciation and grammar to make their speech more clear and correct. Víkonnekt is currently developing a method for automatic pronunciation scoring, which will provide users with immediate feedback.
A data scientist developed CaptINI's pronunciation modules using NLP and other technologies for speech processing and recognition.
Vikonnekt helped in the development of the learning platform by handling everything from front-end design to back-end functionalities.
Our startup collaborated closely with the research data scientist team to integrate their scoring and feedback models into the platform.
By clicking in the flags provided in the header or the footer of the pages, users can seamlessly toggle the user interface between Icelandic and English without losing their progress.
