비전What we're building

Most learners quit before they ever speak.

SKAI Buddy is building the bridge from the Korean alphabet to real, spoken conversation — one AI companion that stays with you the whole way. We shipped the first step. The rest is on the way.

제품Our apps

Two apps, one journey.

Read it first, speak it next. We're building the path in order.
