Pre-launch, now inviting the waitlist
Learn AI, five minutes a day.
AILE is the Duolingo for AI. Bite-sized, no-shame lessons that teach you to actually use AI.
If this sounds like you
You're not behind. It's still early.
AI showed up everywhere almost overnight, and hardly anyone got a calm place to learn it. If it feels like a lot, that's because it is. A few quiet minutes a day is all catching up actually takes.
“Everyone at work already seems to get it.”
Almost everyone is still figuring it out too. A few easy lessons and you'll feel at home in the conversation.
“I tried ChatGPT once and didn't know what to ask.”
Totally normal. Knowing what to ask is a skill, and it's one we teach in five-minute steps.
“I'm not a tech person.”
Perfect, AILE was made for you. Plain English, real-life examples, no jargon.
The daily loop
Learning AI, the way Duolingo taught the world languages.
Open the app, finish one five-minute lesson, and leave with something you can use today. Small wins compound into real, visible capability.
Bite-sized lessons
Five minutes a day. Real tasks like writing a prompt, spotting an AI mistake, or automating a chore. No jargon, no lectures.
Ask Spark, your tutor
A patient AI tutor inside every lesson. A hint on every question when you stall, a plain-English reason when an answer is wrong, and a chat for the question you were too embarrassed to ask.
A win you can use today
Every lesson ends with a 'Try this today' challenge you actually do in real life, then log. You leave with something done, not just points.
A live slice of the app. Tap any of the five tabs, or scroll inside the phone, to move through Today, the Library, your Toolkit, Ask Spark and You.
A Capability Map, not a leaderboard
Watch dozens of concrete AI skills fill in across more than forty real tools, from spotting AI hallucinations to building whole workflows. You can see exactly what you can now do.
Hints, not dead ends
Every one of AILE's nearly three thousand questions ships with a hint from Spark, your tutor. Stuck never lasts longer than a tap, and hints are free from day one.
Humane streaks
Earn freezes by showing up. Miss a day and there is a 48-hour, no-shame repair. Your progress is yours, and we never use guilt to keep you here.
The summit
Earn a Credential, not just a badge.
When you're ready, and only when you're ready, there is a summit: a timed, build-based Assessment scored against a published rubric. Pass, and you earn the AILE Credential, a verifiable record of something you actually built. Anyone you send it to can check it.

What is AILE?
AILE is the Duolingo for AI and Tech. It teaches everyday people who feel behind how to actually use AI through bite-sized, gamified lessons, with an AI tutor, a map of real capabilities you unlock, and verifiable credentials you can earn.
Do I need a tech background?
Not at all. AILE is built specifically for non-technical people. Every lesson is in plain English, with no jargon and no assumed knowledge. If you can use a phone, you can learn here.
What will I learn?
Practical, everyday AI skills, and the judgment that goes with them. The free Foundations tier is 25 short courses on the basics: prompting, picking the right tool, spotting AI mistakes, staying safe online, and how AI shapes your feed, your privacy, and the planet. From there, AILE teaches 49 real AI tools by doing, and every lesson ends with a real-world challenge you can use the same day.
How is AILE different from Duolingo?
It keeps the bite-sized, habit-forming loop but drops the parts that punish you. Your progress shows up as a Capability Map of real skills, not just points. Every question ships with a hint from Spark, so getting stuck never turns into giving up. Streaks are humane, with earned freezes and a no-shame repair. And you can earn a real, AI-graded Credential, not just a badge.
Is the AILE Credential just another course certificate?
No. A certificate of completion proves you watched. The AILE Credential is earned by passing a timed, build-based assessment scored against a published rubric, and every credential resolves to a public verification page showing what you actually built. You can retake the assessment, but the standard does not change.
When does AILE launch?
AILE is pre-launch. We are building now and opening access in waves. Join the waitlist to be among the first people invited in and to help shape what we teach.
How much does it cost?
The Foundations tier is free: all 25 courses, the daily loop, and every hint included. Going deeper on all 49 AI tools, the full Claude arc, and the AILE Credential is AILE Pro, a low-cost subscription. Waitlist members lock in founding pricing before anyone else.
Can startups use AILE?
Yes. Startups can buy AILE modules: short, branded courses that teach your product, promote it, and acquire new users in the process. It is a B2B way to turn onboarding into a habit. Email us to learn more.
Still curious?
Ask us anythingA note from the founder
I started researching AI and got lost in all of it. The jargon, the hot takes, the tools that changed every week. I'm supposed to be the tech person in my family, and even I felt behind.
Then I noticed the people around me, my family, my friends, people smarter than me, quietly deciding AI just wasn't for them. Not because they couldn't learn it, but because every guide assumed they already knew the words.
AILE is the calm place I wished we'd all had. Five minutes a day, a friendly crystal cheering you on, one small win at a time, until using AI feels obvious. If you've ever felt a step behind, you're exactly who I built this for. Join the waitlist and I'll make sure you're one of the first ones in.
