A pioneer in integrating artificial intelligence into education, Aimigo, a key player in the EdTech sector, unveils Aimigo Coach, its new language coaching app combining 20 years of expertise in adaptive AI with the latest advancements in generative AI. This unique technological blend paves the way for a pedagogical approach that merges the flexibility of self-learning with the effectiveness of guided, personalized support.
An educational companion for everyday life
Aimigo Coach is designed for all levels, from post-beginners to advanced learners, and caters to various objectives: preparing for a trip, passing an exam, improving oral fluency, or simply learning for pleasure. Accessible anytime, the app offers short, dynamic coaching sessions, ideally around ten minutes, designed to fit easily into users’ daily lives and maintain their engagement. Flexible, the sessions adapt to individual needs, preferences, and specific constraints.
Each session includes:
- Continuous assessment of the learner’s level and progress, managed by the coach, who adjusts the content in real time to maximize its effectiveness. The integrated spaced repetition method ensures targeted revision of weak points and long-term retention of knowledge.
- Interactive discussions to improve speaking skills through real-life scenarios (ordering food, attending a meeting, traveling), enabling immediate application of knowledge.
- Various activities, including written exercises, interactive dialogues, and comprehension tests.
- Authentic cultural content, consisting of movie clips, music references, or culinary anecdotes, enriching the sessions and providing a deep cultural immersion.
What sets Aimigo Coach apart is the quality of its support: each learner is guided, listened to, and supported by a virtual coach capable of adapting the content and format of sessions to their work style and pedagogical profile. Remembering conversations, successes, and challenges, the coach builds a trusting relationship that motivates the user and helps overcome speaking barriers. Like a sports coach, it fine-tunes its approach over time to offer a truly personalized and evolving learning path, tailored to the learner’s progress and specific goals.
Our coaches, such as Tim, Magda, and Bruno, are not only skilled educators but also colorful, funny, and endearing characters who make every coaching session an eagerly anticipated moment, both enjoyable and effective in terms of progress. Through their quirky anecdotes, references to cult films, iconic music, and local expressions, they immerse learners in a rich, lively, and highly engaging universe that helps them overcome their fears and achieve their goals.

A user-centered pedagogical design
Aimigo Coach is built on cutting-edge architecture, with the central element being the unprecedented interaction between adaptive AI and generative AI, which is the app’s technological signature:
- The adaptive AI, developed by Aimigo, analyzes the learner’s progress in real time, identifies strengths and areas for improvement, and adjusts the educational content to ensure rapid, targeted, and sustainable progress.
- The generative AI, powered by advanced LLMs (large language models), enhances this personalization by creating natural and engaging exchanges, taking into account the learner’s level, interests, and specific goals. These interactions are supported by real-time voice analysis, capable of understanding everything the learner says, even with a heavy accent or errors, and accurately detecting strengths and areas for improvement. To recreate the authenticity of a lively conversation, Aimigo Coach uses advanced speech synthesis, producing nuanced, natural voices with realistic intonations.
This technological combination allows Aimigo Coach to offer a comprehensive approach that covers all language skills: both written and spoken comprehension and expression, while ensuring long-term memorization.
With Aimigo Coach, we introduce a unique AI that combines adaptive and generative models, a first in education. This dual-brain AI offers unmatched personalization, enabling the creation of guided and evolving learning paths that automatically adjust to each learner’s level and progress. This innovation redefines learning by providing unprecedentedly effective support.
