Tourist
"You just landed."
180 minutes means 2–3 sessions a week — that's 50% more than the standard 120 as a thank you for being early. Enough to build the habit, find your characters, and start hearing progress. Same conversation quality as every tier.
Full Conversation Experience
Local
"They know your order."
300 minutes is daily practice. This is where practice starts compounding — the coaching layer tracks your mistakes across conversations, auto-queues vocab you struggle with, and surfaces patterns you'd never notice. Not "more of the same" — a qualitatively different product.
Everything in Tourist, plus the Coaching Layer
The Real Comparison
A single private tutoring session costs $15–50 per hour. One month of Project Fluency gives you hours of conversation practice with characters who remember everything you've ever said.
Tourist matches Duolingo Super pricing. Local is under Duolingo Max.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use minutes across different languages?
+Yes! All plans give you access to Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian, and English. Your minutes work across all languages — practice Italian today, Spanish tomorrow. All 60+ characters are unlocked from day one.
What's the difference between Tourist and Local?
+Same conversation quality. Same characters. Same memory. The difference is volume and intelligence. Local doubles your adaptive questions (10 vs 5), adds Vocab Correction Auto-Queue that turns your mistakes into drills automatically, gives you a Monthly Mistake Patterns report, and unlocks Conversation Audio Playback. It's not more of the same — it's a coaching layer that makes every minute compound.
What are adaptive questions?
+After every conversation over 3 minutes, the system analyzes your grammar mistakes, vocabulary gaps, and pronunciation patterns — then generates personalized drilling questions targeting your specific weaknesses. Tourist gets 5 per conversation. Local gets 10.
What is PTO and how does it work?
+PTO (Practice Time Ownership) rewards consistent practice — you earn free minutes as you learn. Tourist earns 10%, Local earns 15%. Once you bank 60+ PTO minutes, redeem them 1:1 for practice minutes that never expire. Learn more about PTO →
What's a One-Way Ticket?
+A lump-sum commitment — one payment, full Local-level access, a pool of minutes, and a deadline. No refunds, no pauses. It's a commitment device for people who are done debating. Cash arrives day one, and your characters are waiting.
Why not unlimited?
+Real conversations. Real memory. Real cost. Every minute you practice costs us money to run — AI voices, character memory, adaptive analysis. "Unlimited" at $8–12/month is a bet you won't show up. We're betting you will. We charge what it costs to deliver something that actually works.
