But learning a language doesn't have to be boring.The SolutionVideo games are one of the hardest things to quit on earth, so why not use one to learn a language?... And Fluyo doesn't just gamify endless practice, we're building a true game that's fun and exciting to play every time you log on!Fluyo is a language learning game.Our highlights:Highest funded app in Kickstarter history with over $1.2M in pre-salesCurrently in beta with around 4,000 testers giving great feedback every dayLaunched on January 1st to an audience of 1M+ - See our latest update for details!Aiming to reach $2.5M+ in ARR by July 2025Shipping premium AI tier early next yearInside Fluyo, You'll...... and most importantly, Learn!Fluyo delivers a unique learning loop. Unlike many gamified education apps, we don't shy away from actually teaching learners. Instead, we make it fun and engaging - then make it worth the effort with a rewarding gameplay progression.First, you'll learn grammar in our unique, interactive audio lessons, next you'll learn vocabulary in dedicated, simple learning sessions, finally, you'll practice it all a ton in our games and challenges!And early next year, we'll be launching an AI toolkit with even more personalized learning, including:Personalized mistakes reviewExtended audio lessons and personalized practiceReal-time social chat assistancePersonalized lessons and tutoringPronunciation and voice practiceSo, how does Fluyo make money?We're launching on a Freemium model designed to optimize retention while capturing revenue from the users who are getting the most daily value from the app.We believe each active user will be invaluable in the long run as we test and iterate over the next year, and as we build an audience that makes our social tools and online games really come alive. To back up that belief, we're sacrificing some short term revenue to keep as many users on the app as possible.And People Want It.Highest funded app on Kickstarter ever with over $1.2M in pre-sales150,000+ waitlistNearly 1M subscribers on Ikenna's language learning YouTube channel10M+ YouTube subscribers in affiliate partner language learning YouTube channels accessible through Ikenna's networkLet's talk about the owl in the room.Duolingo is our main competition.Despite Duolingo's excellent gamification and huge growth engine, the owl has pretty poor retention, weak monetization, and lackluster educational value.And that means we've got a plan. And we're already on our way!We're taking all the feedback, good and bad, and iterating every day.Improving retentionSquashing app-breaking bugsExtending courses by ~30xFeedback-driven improvementsElevating daily engagementImproving replay-abilityOptimizing pacingIncreasing gamificationOptimizing FeaturesImproving feature adoptionBoosting feature engagementElevating feature impactWe're launching small cohorts of new users through promotional beta-access giveaways to get fresh eyes and feedback along the way.What's the market?Fluyo targets 14-42 year old individuals in the online market who are interested in games. Pricing has been validated by our competitors and our Kickstarter pricing.About 50% of the market is made up of individual learners, and about 75% of the market fits our target age. Finally, about 67% of our age range plays mobile games.SOM: 14.75B x 50% x 75% x 67% ≈ $3.7BAnd the individual online market is expected to make up most of the overall growth for the next few years.Our Go-to-market Strategy targets $2.5M ARR.Launching in December to target end-of-year excitement and New Year's resolutionsForward-looking projections are not guaranteed.We've got the right people to make it happen.Our team is made up of former founders, polyglots, and language learners.And here's the plan for the future:Forward-looking projections are not guaranteed.Have questions?

Quick question, I'm new to all of this so apologies if these are questions one should already know. Okay so, is it 1 \"share\" per $100? And as a new investor, I am curious as to how we make profit? And lastly what does a $22,5M valuation cap mean?","answer":"For shares: the early bird terms are set at a company valuation cap of $22.5M. That means that for your investment you'd reserve a portion of the business relative to the total value of the company. Since we're raising the money on a SAFE, there's a small chance you could end up with more than that. An exact number of shares is TBD. You can learn about SAFEs from Wefunder here: https://wefunder.com/faq/securities And if you're new to investing, it might be worth doing a little research into d..."},{"question":"So, like the last question, (but asking for actual details this time) is it 1 share per $100, or a share valued at what you put in at the time, or is it determined later by the amount of investors/ amount of total money invested? I'm going to invest either way but it would use...","answer":"It's a little tough to answer since we don't know exactly how much we'll end up raising. I tried a couple of ranges and it looks like something around $2 per share. The actual price of a share doesn't matter as much as the percent of total issued shares you would be buying and the total value of the company."},{"question":"Will the Igbo language be added in the future?","answer":"We're planning to add community tools that allow passionate members of our community to add languages that don't have enough general interest for us to create internally. So whether we add Igbo or not, there's a strong chance it will make it onto Fluyo eventually!"},{"question":"So, referencing your answer to Jason Eichler, for example, if the price per share was $2, then my $100 investment would give me 50 shares?","answer":"Because of the way that SAFEs work, I can't really give you an exact number. Here's how the Wefunder team recommended explaining it: Like most early startups, Fluyo is selling a SAFE (Simple Agreement for Future Equity). Think of it like a promise — your investment will convert to shares in our first major equity funding round. When that happens, your SAFE will convert into shares at this valuation cap. Here's an example: say you invest $100 at $22.5M valuation cap. If the company raises at $..."},{"question":"How do I know if I made it in the SAFEs investment time?","answer":"All of the investments will be in SAFEs, but the early birds will have a lower valuation cap. I'll check with the Wefunder support team on how to verify your terms."}],"recent_posts":[],"provenance":{"source":"wefunder_public_company_profile","as_of":"2026-06-20T02:44:29Z","claims":{"total_amount_raised":{"source":"FrontCompanySummary#amount_raised","last_verified_at":"2026-06-19T05:01:19Z","as_of":"2026-06-20T02:44:29Z","confidence":"high"},"total_investors":{"source":"FrontCompanySummary#number_of_investors","last_verified_at":"2026-06-19T05:01:19Z","as_of":"2026-06-20T02:44:29Z","confidence":"high"},"active_raise_states":{"source":"Fundraise.visible(nil, nil)","last_verified_at":"2025-05-01T15:28:47Z","as_of":"2026-06-20T02:44:29Z","confidence":"high"},"latest_fundraise_state":{"source":"Fundraise.visible(nil, nil).order(funding_started_at)","last_verified_at":"2025-05-01T15:28:47Z","as_of":"2026-06-20T02:44:29Z","confidence":"medium"}}}}}}
