Tagline: Teaching the world languages through music
Elevator pitch: Univoice helps you learn a new language through music – no singing skills required! Unlike traditional language apps that teach you ‘classroom’ speak, Univoice teaches you to speak a new language as it’s spoken in the real world - including informal and slang speech. Simply select the language / genre of music you're in the mood for, and start singing along with the artist. As you sing or speak, you will receive instant, color-coded feedback, graded on pronunciation alone (not pitch or tone).

FAQ:
- Q: App sounds pretty cool. Your iPhone app says “you’re graded only on your pronunciation”. Are users pronunciation graded by a physical person?
  A: Univoice uses patented and patent-pending speech recognition technology that measures, word-by-word, how understandable a user might be to a native speaker. Our focus is on helping you to recognize words that sound a lot like one another, (as boat Vs. boot,) and focus your training more on those than on words that are very unique, (like rutabaga or kumquat.) This is driven by AI and machine learning technologies.
- Q: I downloaded it but kept freezing / crashing, maybe still beta mode? (I am on iPhone) Also limited language selection - will u add russian at some point?
  A: Francis, thank you for your feedback! Would you be willing to email me specifics about your device, so I can ensure that we can support you properly? A part of our commitment to make Univoice a global service is ensuring that our app works on as many devices as possible! (And yes, we're in beta, and building our library fast. I can't wait to support Russian language!) bryan.riester@univoice.app​ 
- Q: Do you have a "Lead Investor" as defined by Wefunder? If so, how much have they invested?
  A: Paul, thanks for your question. Yes, Eugene Bond is the campaign's Lead Investor (soon to be published on our page), with an investment of $10,500. Eugene is the former Head of Engineering at Babbel, and currently serves as Technology Advisor on our BOA.
- Q: How many further rounds of financing will you engage in, that will subject my shares to dilution?
  A: That's a really great question! Firstly, it's important to note that dilution is heavily based on the number of fundraising rounds your startup undergoes. This is rooted in your exit strategy - as a frame of reference, companies who are seeking to become the next billion dollar unicorn (Facebook, Airbnb, Uber) engage in many funding rounds, given that they need $10's-100's of millions in capital to break billionaire status; these rounds include Pre-Seed, Seed, Series A, Series B, Series C, Se...
- Q: I really wanted to invest but the $500 minimum is too high for Reg CF. I hate Reg CF limits.
  A: Baron, appreciate you reaching out about this. In the near future, we are planning to drop the minimum investment amount to $250, for a limited time. Stay tuned!
