Compare
Babbel and Practiz.
Not one or the other. Babbel and Practiz do different jobs. Here's how they compare, and how to use both.
Choose Babbel if
you want short, structured lessons in one of 14 languages, built around speaking with confidence.
Add Practiz if
you're learning English and want more practice at your level, with your own writing checked and words that come back on time.
Using both? Take your Babbel lesson, then a Practiz round on a theme you'd actually talk about, to use those words in your own sentences.
Side by side.
| Aspect | Babbel | Practiz |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | A course: "The effective way to learn a language online", in 14 languages.[1] | Practice, not a course: rounds of questions on the words of your level. |
| How you practise | Lessons of about six minutes, with review and repetition built into the learning path.[2] | Rounds of 5, 10 or 20 questions on a theme, or a mix of the words that are due. |
| Speaking and writing | Speech recognition in lessons, and Babbel Speak, an AI conversation partner in beta.[2][4] | No speaking yet. Translations and your own sentences are checked by AI, with a line on what to change. |
| Languages and levels | 14 languages, with lessons aligned to the CEFR.[2] | English only for now, A1 to B2. |
| Bring your own words | Its pages don't describe adding your own words.[2]Our reading of their pages. | Not yet; words come from a dictionary of nearly 8,000, by level and theme. |
| Price | A first lesson is free; full courses need a subscription, listed from $8.95 a month billed yearly, or a Lifetime plan.[1][3] | 5 free sessions, no card. Then $5.99 a month or $59.99 a year. |
