📞 Finding Your Voice — And How to Practice It With a Simple Phone Call

Today, we're introducing something simple — and quietly new: the world's first AI language tutor you reach through a regular phone call.

No app. No Wi-Fi. No sign-up.

Just a phone number anyone can dial.

If you'd like to try it, you can find the number here: www.asklexy.me

We're launching in the US, Canada, and India, and expanding to other countries soon.

Why We Built This

It connects deeply to something I've felt many times.

Remember that feeling when your voice felt too small in a new place? The awkward pauses. The fear of being misunderstood. The quiet hope that someone would just understand you.

And for many of us, there was something else too — the challenge of trying to express your full self in a language that wasn't your own.

I know that feeling well.

Growing up across different countries as an immigrant kid — and later as an international student — I learned languages the way many of us still do: through real conversations, small mistakes, late-night calls home, and doing my best to be understood in words that didn't always feel native to me.

That's why this launch feels personal.

ASKLEXY by phone is intentionally retro, deeply accessible, and built for anyone who has ever felt their voice shrink in a new country — or in a language that wasn't originally theirs.

If this helps even one person speak with a bit more confidence, we'll consider it a good start.

How ASKLEXY by Phone Works (Step by Step)

ASKLEXY is designed to be as simple as possible. If you can make a phone call, you can use it.

Step 1: Go to asklexy.me

Visit asklexy.me from any device (phone, laptop, tablet). You'll see the phone number to call for your country.

Step 2: Dial the number from any phone

You can call from:

  • a smartphone
  • a basic phone
  • a landline

There's nothing to install and nothing to set up.

Step 3: Start speaking

Once the call connects, you can simply start talking.

You can say things like:

  • "I want to practice speaking English."
  • "Can we practice a job interview?"
  • "Help me practice asking for directions."
  • "Give me a listening exercise."
  • "Let's do IELTS or TOEFL speaking practice."

ASKLEXY listens and responds naturally, like a real conversation partner.

Step 4: Practice in real-world ways

During the call, ASKLEXY helps you by:

  • asking follow-up questions
  • rephrasing unclear sentences
  • modeling more natural expressions
  • adjusting its pace to your level
  • explaining corrections in simple terms

There are no grades, no pressure, and no time limits.

Step 5: Hang up anytime — and call again whenever you want

There are no "sessions" to complete. You can hang up whenever you like and call back later — even for just a few minutes.

Many people use ASKLEXY:

  • on their commute
  • between classes
  • during a break at work
  • before an interview
  • late at night when they want to practice quietly

What You Can Practice With ASKLEXY by Phone

Here are some of the most common ways people use it:

☕ Everyday conversations

Practice real-life scenarios like:

  • ordering coffee
  • small talk
  • asking for help or directions

🗣️ Spoken English confidence

Practice:

  • speaking spontaneously
  • explaining opinions
  • telling short stories
  • answering questions clearly
  • thinking in English without translating

This is how fluency actually develops — through conversation.

💼 Interviews and important conversations

Use ASKLEXY to:

  • practice job interviews
  • rehearse difficult conversations
  • say answers out loud before real situations
  • reduce nervousness and hesitation

Because it's voice-based, you practice tone, pacing, and clarity, not just words.

🎧 Listening comprehension

You can ask ASKLEXY to:

  • read a short paragraph aloud
  • then ask you questions to check understanding

This works like a listening test — but without pressure, timers, or screens.

🎓 Language test preparation

Practice speaking for:

  • IELTS
  • TOEFL
  • other spoken English tests

ASKLEXY guides you through typical speaking prompts in a calm, conversational way.

Where We're Available

ASKLEXY by phone is currently available in:

  • United States
  • Canada
  • India

We're actively expanding to more countries soon.

A Simple Idea, On Purpose

This isn't meant to be flashy technology.

It's meant to be:

  • familiar
  • comforting
  • easy to use
  • available when you need it

Sometimes, the simplest interface — a phone call — is the most powerful one.

If you've ever looked for a low-pressure way to practice a new language, we built this for you.
