## What GrooTalk does differently

- Every session is a phone call. You talk, the character answers what you actually said, and nothing needs to be tapped.
- Each call has five tasks, such as ordering, asking a price or giving your name, so you always know what to say next.
- Every sentence you say gets a more natural version, explained in one of 16 languages.
- 26 characters with American and British voices, on a path from A1 to C1.

## Choose Loora if

- You are already comfortable in English and want free conversation on your own topics
- You mainly need professional English: meetings, interviews, presentations
- You do not want a script or a task list

## Choose GrooTalk if

- Open conversation leaves you wondering what to say next
- You are between A1 and B1 and need a clear task, an example sentence and a hint when stuck
- You want to rehearse specific everyday situations before they happen

## The short version

Loora suits confident speakers who want range. GrooTalk suits learners who want direction: a situation, five tasks, and a fix for every sentence along the way.
