Russian fluency starts after Duolingo

The app for learners who hit the A2 wall. Real stories, AI conversations, and a path to fluency that doesn't plateau.

Free for early supporters. No spam, ever.

You're on the list!

We'll let you know as soon as Mishka is ready for you.

The Problem

You've done the courses. You've got the streak. So why can't you have a real conversation?

You spent months on Duolingo. You can order coffee and count to a hundred. But when a real Russian speaker talks to you, it's like starting from zero.

That's because every app abandons you at A2. The market for intermediate Russian learners is small, so nobody builds for you. You're stuck googling grammar tables and hoping something clicks.

Mishka picks up where they leave off. Built by a learner and a Russian language tutor, specifically for the A2–to–fluency gap that everyone else ignores.
