The best AI app for learning to speak English in India depends on what you need:
ELSA Speak for pronunciation and accent, SpeakX if you want to learn through Hindi
or another Indian language, Stimuler for IELTS speaking, and Praktika or Speak for
open conversation with an AI tutor. If you want to spend nothing, Gemini Live, ChatGPT’s
free voice chats and Google Translate’s new pronunciation practice cover a lot of
ground.

We compared nine options available in India on what they teach, what they cost and
what they do with your voice. Paid prices are the in-app purchase prices each developer
lists on the Apple App Store for India, checked on 13 November 2026; Android prices
and launch offers can differ, so check the final price in the app before you pay.

## Key takeaways

 * SpeakX is the cheapest dedicated speaking app we found, with monthly plans listed
   at ₹99 and ₹299, and it teaches through Hindi, Marathi, Bengali, Telugu, Tamil,
   Kannada and Malayalam.
 * ELSA Speak is the strongest pick for pronunciation; its App Store India listing
   shows a ₹499 monthly plan and a ₹3,449 one-year Premium plan.
 * Gemini Live has been free for everyone on Android and iOS since 20 May 2025, 
   but only for users aged 18 and over.
 * Google Translate added AI pronunciation practice for English, Spanish and Hindi
   on Android in the US and India in April 2026, at no cost.
 * Several apps send your voice to outside AI providers or use recordings to improve
   their own speech systems, so read the privacy settings before you start.

AI English speaking apps and their listed prices in India. · Infographic by 100xFounder

Two notes on the table. App Store listings show every price point a developer has
registered, including discounts and old plans, which is why several apps show ranges;
the plan the app offers you may be only one of them. And Duolingo’s listing in India
shows only Super Duolingo prices, not Duolingo Max, so we could not verify a Max
price for India.

## Best for pronunciation and accent: ELSA Speak

ELSA Speak is built around pronunciation: you speak out loud and get instant, personalised
feedback on your pronunciation. According to [ELSA’s website](https://elsaspeak.com/en/),
it builds a learning path around your level, goals, preferred accent and industry,
offers AI role-play across real-life scenarios, and has a “bilingual AI tutor” that
lets beginners start conversations in their native language.

The [App Store India listing](https://apps.apple.com/in/app/elsa-speak-english-learning/id1083804886)
describes practice for job interviews, presentations and meetings, more than 8,000
lessons, and exam preparation for IELTS, TOEFL and TOEIC with ELSA Premium. Listed
prices include ₹499 a month, ₹1,189 for three months of Premium and ₹3,449 for a
year of Premium; the most expensive item is ₹12,900 for a year, without a plan name
that explains the difference.

Pick ELSA if people often ask you to repeat yourself or if you want a neutral accent
for calls with overseas clients. It is less useful if your main problem is finding
words quickly in conversation.

## Best for Hindi-medium learners: SpeakX

SpeakX teaches English through the language you already think in and moves the conversation
into English step by step. Its [App Store listing](https://apps.apple.com/in/app/speakx-english-speaking-app/id6756059415)
names seven supported languages: Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi
and Bengali. Learners talk to an AI practice partner called Sia, get a progress 
report on fluency, vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation, and can practise for job
interviews, office conversations, higher studies and travel. Cricketer MS Dhoni 
appears in the app as a motivator, according to the listing.

SpeakX is the cheapest dedicated app here: the listing shows SpeakX Premium Monthly
at ₹99 and ₹299. The company claims on [its website](https://www.speakx.ai/) that
four in five active learners speak mostly English within two months; that is its
own figure, not an independent study. The app is published by Ivypods Technology
Private Limited.

## Best for IELTS speaking: Stimuler

Stimuler focuses on speaking tests: you record a 60-second answer and get feedback
on pronunciation, fluency and vocabulary, plus an estimated IELTS band score. Its
[App Store listing](https://apps.apple.com/in/app/stimuler-english-speaking-app/id1627501632)
also describes video mock tests with an AI interviewer and more than 100 speaking
topics. The band score is the app’s own estimate, not an official IELTS result.

Prices on the listing run from ₹149 a week and ₹199 to ₹399 a month to ₹499 to ₹
1,999 a year, including an item labelled “Annual 699 india” at ₹699. For a learner
preparing for an exam in two or three months, that makes Stimuler one of the cheaper
exam-focused options.

## Best for conversation practice: Praktika and Speak

Praktika and Speak both put conversation first, with lessons and an AI tutor you
talk to out loud. They suit learners who already know basic grammar and need speaking
time more than drills.

[Praktika](https://apps.apple.com/in/app/praktika-ai-language-tutor/id1624701477)
offers AI tutors with distinct personalities and accents, including American and
British, more than 1,000 lessons for travel, careers, job interviews and IELTS and
TOEFL prep, and pronunciation and fluency feedback. It also lets you upload your
resume to rehearse interview answers. Its [website](https://praktika.ai/) says the
tutor explains things in your native language. Listed prices run from ₹1,499 for
three months to ₹9,900 for a lifetime plan, with yearly plans from ₹1,999 to ₹5,199.

[Speak](https://www.speak.com/) uses a learn, practise and apply loop built by language
teachers, ending in a back-and-forth with the Speak Tutor. English is one of its
languages, but its site does not list Hindi or any other Indian language among its
interface languages, so it assumes you can follow instructions in English. It is
also the priciest app here, with monthly plans listed at ₹1,899 to ₹2,299 and Premium
Plus at up to ₹22,900 a year on the [App Store](https://apps.apple.com/in/app/speak-language-learning/id1286609883).

## Best free options: Gemini Live, ChatGPT voice and Google Translate

General AI assistants with voice modes are the cheapest way to get long speaking
practice, because they will hold a conversation on any topic for free. They do not
track your progress or grade your pronunciation the way a dedicated app does, so
you have to ask for feedback.

**Gemini Live.** Google made Gemini Live with camera and screen sharing free for
everyone on Android and iOS on 20 May 2025, for users aged 18 and over, according
to [Google](https://blog.google/products/gemini/gemini-app-updates-io-2025). Paid
Google AI plans are listed at ₹399 a month for Google AI Plus on the [App Store](https://apps.apple.com/in/app/google-gemini/id6477489729)
and ₹1,950 a month for Google AI Pro on [Google One](https://one.google.com/about/plans),
but you do not need either for speaking practice.

**ChatGPT voice.** [OpenAI’s pricing page](https://chatgpt.com/pricing) lists “limited
voice chats” on the Free plan and more voice chats on Go. The App Store India listing
shows ChatGPT Go at ₹399 and Plus at ₹1,999 a month.

**Google Translate.** In April 2026 Google added pronunciation practice to the Translate
app on Android in the US and India, for English, Spanish and Hindi; it scores your
pronunciation of a phrase and gives instant feedback, according to [Google’s Translate blog](https://blog.google/products-and-platforms/products/translate/fun-facts-google-translate-20-years/).
Google also lets people in India talk to Search by voice with Search Live, which
started in English and Hindi and now covers languages including Marathi, Tamil and
Bengali, [Google India said](https://blog.google/intl/en-in/products/explore-communicate/search-live-comes-to-more-indian-languages/)
in March 2026.

A simple prompt for Gemini Live or ChatGPT voice works well: “You are an interviewer
for a fresher marketing role in Bengaluru. Ask me one question at a time. After 
each answer, tell me one grammar mistake and one better phrase, then ask the next
question.”

Which AI app to use for which English goal. · Infographic by 100xFounder

## Which app to use for what

The right app depends on your goal more than on the technology, since all of them
use speech recognition and a language model. These picks follow from the features
and prices above.

 * **Job interview prep:** Praktika (rehearse answers from your own resume) or ELSA(
   interview and meeting scenarios); for free practice, use the ChatGPT or Gemini
   prompt above. Pair it with our guide to [AI resume tools](https://100xfounder.com/best-ai-resume-tools/)
   and the openings on our [jobs board](https://100xfounder.com/jobs/).
 * **Accent and pronunciation:** ELSA Speak, with Google Translate’s free pronunciation
   practice for quick checks.
 * **Daily conversation:** Praktika or Speak if you will pay; Gemini Live if you
   want it free.
 * **Hindi-medium or regional-language learners:** SpeakX, which teaches through
   seven Indian languages, or Duolingo’s English course for Hindi speakers to build
   vocabulary first.
 * **IELTS speaking:** Stimuler for timed answers and band estimates, with ELSA 
   or Praktika as alternatives.
 * **Kids:** [Duolingo ABC](https://apps.apple.com/in/app/learn-to-read-duolingo-abc/id1440502568)
   is free and rated 4+, but it teaches reading in English for preschool to second
   grade, not speaking. Gemini Live is for users aged 18 and over, and ChatGPT and
   Speak are rated 13+ on the App Store, so younger children need an adult account
   and supervision.

For more free tools beyond English practice, see our list of the [best free AI tools](https://100xfounder.com/best-free-ai-tools/).

## Duolingo: good for habit, limited for speaking

Duolingo is the easiest way to build a daily habit, and its English course for Hindi
speakers is free, as [Duolingo has said](https://blog.duolingo.com/language-learning-for-the-next-billion-duolingo-in-india/).
Its main AI speaking feature, Video Call with an animated character called Lily,
is available only to Duolingo Max subscribers, according to [Duolingo](https://blog.duolingo.com/video-call),
with calls lasting about one minute early in a course and up to three minutes later.
Duolingo lists English among the courses with Video Call but does not say which 
base languages, such as Hindi, get it.

Duolingo describes Max as a tier above Super Duolingo and says it is available in
188 countries, according to its [Max announcement](https://blog.duolingo.com/duolingo-max).
The [App Store India listing](https://apps.apple.com/in/app/duolingo-language-chess/id570060128)
shows only Super Duolingo items, from ₹199 to ₹1,749, so check in the app whether
Max and Video Call are offered for your course before paying.

## Privacy: what happens to your voice recordings

Speaking apps need your voice, and most store or share it in some form, so check
each app’s settings before you start. Here is what the companies say.

 * **Gemini:** Gemini Live audio and video are not used to improve Google’s services
   by default. If Keep Activity is off, Live chats are kept for 72 hours; if you
   turn on the audio setting, some recordings may be reviewed by humans and kept
   for up to three years, according to [Google’s Gemini privacy hub](https://support.google.com/gemini/answer/13594961?hl=en).
 * **ChatGPT:** audio clips from Advanced Voice conversations are kept with the 
   chat for 30 days, and the audio itself is not used for training unless you choose
   to share it; transcripts can be used for training if “Improve the model for everyone”
   is on, according to [OpenAI’s help centre](https://help.openai.com/en/articles/20001274-chatgpt-voice).
 * **Stimuler:** its [privacy policy](https://stimuler.tech/privacy-policy) says
   your voice audio during AI calls is streamed to Hume AI and transcripts are sent
   to OpenAI to generate replies and feedback, and that it keeps audio recordings“
   for a limited period of time” before deleting them.
 * **Speak:** its [privacy policy](https://www.speak.com/privacy) says it uses audio
   to evaluate your pronunciation and also to improve its speech recognition and
   voice transcription technology, and lists OpenAI and Microsoft among the providers
   that receive audio.
 * **ELSA and Stimuler:** both list audio data among the data linked to your identity
   in their App Store privacy labels, which Apple notes are not verified.

Use a nickname rather than your real details in role plays, avoid saying phone numbers
or account details out loud, and delete old voice history if the app allows it.

## Honest limits of AI speaking apps

AI tutors are patient and always available, but they are not examiners. Band scores
and fluency percentages are each app’s own estimates; only an official test gives
a real score. Speech recognition can also struggle with strong regional accents 
or background noise, and AI tutors sometimes accept phrases a human listener would
find odd. Google first tested an English speaking-practice feature in Search in 
India in October 2023, [TechCrunch](https://techcrunch.com/2023/10/19/google-takes-aim-at-duolingo-with-new-english-tutoring-tool/)
reported; we could not confirm it is still live, so it is not in our table. The 
best results usually come from 15 to 20 minutes of daily speaking plus some practice
with real people.

## FAQ

### Which is the best free app to practise English speaking in India?

Gemini Live is the strongest free option for open conversation, since Google made
it free on Android and iOS in May 2025 for users aged 18 and over. ChatGPT’s Free
plan also includes limited voice chats. For pronunciation drills, Google Translate’s
free pronunciation practice works on Android in India.

### Which AI app helps Hindi speakers learn English?

SpeakX teaches English through Hindi and six other Indian languages, with monthly
plans listed at ₹99 and ₹299 on the App Store in India. Duolingo also has a free
English course for Hindi speakers, which is better for vocabulary and grammar than
for long conversations.

### Is ELSA Speak worth paying for?

ELSA Speak is worth it if your main problem is pronunciation or accent, since it
gives instant pronunciation feedback and has interview and exam practice. Its App
Store India listing shows ₹499 a month or ₹3,449 for a year of Premium. If you mainly
need conversation time, a free voice assistant may be enough.

### Can I use ChatGPT to practise English for job interviews?

Yes. Start a voice chat and ask ChatGPT to act as an interviewer for your target
role, ask one question at a time and point out one mistake after each answer. The
Free plan has limited voice chats; ChatGPT Go is listed at ₹399 a month on the App
Store in India.

### Are English speaking apps safe for kids?

Check age limits first. Gemini Live is for users aged 18 and over, and ChatGPT and
Speak are rated 13+ on the App Store. Duolingo ABC is rated 4+ and free, but it 
teaches reading rather than speaking. Supervise children using any app that records
their voice.
