What are we building?

Duolingo chat (a community feature where learners help one another directly)

Why are we building this ?

  1. For users to learn more efficiently through connecting with locals
  2. To build a community of Duolingo learners.

Target Audience

Current learners on Duolingo.

Goal

Enable users to learn from locals through correcting one another’s exercise.

Success Criteria

  1. Increase Duolingo adoption as people learn from the app due to the psychological mirroring effect of talking to local speakers of the language they’re learning.
  2. The psychological persuasion enables users to feel like they’re local speakers too.

Metrics

  1. Time to activate
  2. Feature adoption rate
  3. Net Promoter Score
  4. Monthly new users
