Duolingo creates an online language learning platform that offers bite-sized, gamified lessons. It uses a freemium model: core features are free with in-app advertisements, while a premium subscription unlocks an ad-free experience and additional features. The app works by presenting short lessons that reinforce language skills through interactive exercises and rewards, designed to keep users engaged and learning daily. Compared with competitors, Duolingo leverages a very large global user base and a well-known brand, highlighted by being the most downloaded education app in App Store history and a leading education app by revenue in 2019, along with a visible emphasis on workplace culture. Its overarching goal is to make high-quality education universally accessible to people around the world.
