Real conversations, real people

Rileyy connects language learners with native speakers for relaxed, in-person conversation practice. You can book a one-to-one conversation session with a native speaker, or join a small group meetup where learners and native speakers of the same language gather in a café or bar and simply talk.

There are no textbooks, no classrooms and no scripts. You meet over coffee, practise the language you are learning in a real conversation, and get gentle correction and local expressions from someone who grew up speaking it. Every native speaker builds their own profile, so you know who you are meeting, which languages they speak, and where they like to meet before you book.

Rileyy is built for intermediate-level learners and above: people who can already hold a basic conversation in their target language and now want to use it with confidence. It is equally for native speakers who enjoy meeting new people from around the world and earning from the conversations they already love having.

The app is built and run by a small, independent team of language learners and native speakers who wanted the practice that language classes never quite give you. We keep groups intentionally small, we work with cities we know well, and we would rather ship a meetup per city than a thousand automated lessons.
