Got questions?

Is Banter really free?

Yes, 100%. We're in beta right now and everyone gets full access for free. No credit card required, no hidden fees, no "free trial" that suddenly charges you.

How is this different from ChatGPT?

Banter is purpose-built for conversation practice. We have structured scenarios, real-time feedback on your social skills, and the AI responds like an actual human conversation partner — not an assistant trying to be helpful.

What languages are supported?

We currently support English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, Hindi, Arabic, and Dutch. More coming based on demand.

Will there be human-to-human matching?

Yes! That's our Phase 2. Once you've built confidence with AI practice, we'll match you with real people for conversation practice. Think language exchange meets social skills training.

I have social anxiety. Is this actually helpful?

That's exactly who we built this for. Practicing conversations in a zero-stakes environment builds the same neural pathways as real practice — without the anxiety. Start slow, go at your own pace, and build up gradually.

How long does a practice session take?

As little as 2 minutes or as long as you want. Most people do 5-10 minute sessions. The key is consistency, not marathon sessions.

Stop overthinking.
Start practicing.
