Loora: English coaching aimed at your career, not your streak

Loora is an AI English coach built for people whose paycheck depends on their English. Rather than generic vocabulary drills, it stages the conversations professionals actually face — job interviews, business meetings, presentations, networking small talk — and coaches you through them 24/7, with instant feedback on pronunciation, grammar, and phrasing. Its speech recognition is tuned to analyze accented English, so feedback stays useful whether your first language is Portuguese, Hindi, or Hebrew.

The app positions itself as a judgment-free practice room: you can fumble a negotiation rehearsal at midnight with no human on the other end, then re-run it until it lands. Dedicated Business English modules and TOEFL/IELTS exam preparation round out the career focus.

Key Features

• Real-life conversation scenarios: interviews, meetings, presentations, casual chat
• Instant evaluation with pronunciation correction and grammar feedback
• Speech recognition designed to understand and analyze accented English
• Dedicated Business English modules for professional contexts
• TOEFL and IELTS exam preparation support
• Available 24/7 at a fraction of the cost of an hourly human tutor

Ideal Use Case

Loora is for non-native professionals and students who already have functional English but need polish and confidence for high-stakes moments — a job interview abroad, client calls, a visa exam, or a promotion that requires presenting in English.

How Loora differentiates

Loora raised a $12M Series A in February 2024 led by QP Ventures, with Hearst Ventures, Emerge, and Two Lanterns Venture Partners participating — $21.25M raised in total. Where most language apps chase beginners across many languages, Loora concentrates entirely on English fluency for career outcomes, which shapes everything from its scenario library to its accent-aware feedback.
