Tonight · 21:00
First-timers café
Six seats, one rule: nobody corrects you mid-sentence. Sara moderates and keeps the pace slow.
Reserve a seatSalut = hello 12 languages
Say it wrong.
Then say it right.
A parrot never studies grammar. It listens, repeats, gets it wrong, tries again — until the sound is its own. SaluTalk is that loop, with a native speaker and a coach on the other end of the chat.
- Free plan, no card
- One-time payments, never auto-renews
- Block and report are separate
Streaks and XP are part of the loop, not the point of it. Miss a day and the parrot waits.
00 | The exchange
A correction you can actually read
Struck in red, fixed in your colour, then explained by Sara in one line — and then you say the clean version back.
Example thread, written for this page. Timings and XP figures are illustrative — not measured product data.
01 | Why it works
Four moves, on repeat.
Every session is the same short cycle. Pick a step — the chat on the right follows.
Step 1 of 4
Listen first, speak second
Your chatmate sends a voice note about their day. You listen as many times as you like — nothing is timed, nothing disappears.

02 | Chatmates
Match with natives.
Speak like a local.
You teach, they teach back. Every card is a two-way trade — the ring shows how much of it is yours.

You practise Arabic · in return Layla gets English — and you both get corrected.

People on this card are invented for the mockup; avatars are initials, not users. “Online now” is a design label, not a live count.
03 | Readings
Tap a word. Hear the shape of it.
Every reading shows the script, the sound, and the one thing a textbook would bury on page 40. Pick one.
你好
nǐ hǎo nǐ · hǎo
“hello” — literally you good

Now say it back to Layla with your own name after it.
04 | Voice rooms
Quiet rooms count too.
Host-moderated, small on purpose. Raise your hand, speak when you're ready, leave whenever.

Two minutes each, then the room asks you one question. Tenses appear when you need them.

06 | Safety
You are always in control.
An app that pairs strangers needs rules written by someone who has used it. These are ours.
- Block and report are separate. Blocking hides them from you; reporting sends the thread to a human. Neither tells the other person which one happened.
- Real people read reports. Not an auto-ban, not an auto-dismiss — a moderator sees the messages you flagged.
- Nearby is off by default. Nobody sees your city until you turn it on, and you can share an approximate one.
- Your corrections are yours. The list of mistakes is yours to keep or delete; it is never used to train a model.
Say hello first. Grammar later.
Salut — that's the whole onboarding. Pick a language, pick a person, send one imperfect sentence.
