Es dzīvoju Rīga.

A place answering “where?” takes the locative case: Rīga → Rīgā.

Would pass
Clear answer, one case mistake

Sound familiar?

The hardest part of the exam is speaking

  • You have the textbook, but speaking is scary

    You know the words, but when you have to answer out loud your mind goes blank. And there is no one to practise with at home.

  • A tutor costs €25 per lesson

    It takes 10–20 lessons to start speaking. That is €250–500, on someone else's schedule.

  • At the exam you freeze and forget words

    A stranger, a timer, nerves. If you never answered these questions before, what you learned just won't come back.

How it will work

Three steps — and you know if you'd pass

  1. 1

    Pick your exam and level

    Lithuanian A1 / A2 or Latvian A2 / B1. Questions follow the topics of the official programme.

  2. 2

    Talk to the examiner out loud

    It asks questions like the real exam and listens to your answer. On your phone, any time — even 5 minutes on the bus.

  3. 3

    Get your feedback

    Mistakes, the correct version and a “would pass / would fail” verdict. Explained in plain English.

Questions

FAQ

When is the launch?

We are collecting the waitlist and building the first version. As soon as early access opens, people on the list hear first. The first 100 get a free mock exam.

Will it replace language courses?

No, and it doesn't try to. Runā trains the speaking part: it helps you get talking and stay calm at the exam. Learn grammar and vocabulary in a course or from a textbook — practise speaking here.

Which exams?

Lithuanian A1 and A2 (the NŠA exam for foreigners) and Latvian A2 and B1 (the VIAA state language test). Questions follow the topics and format of the official programmes.

How does the AI work?

The examiner asks a question out loud and you answer out loud. Your speech is transcribed and the AI checks the answer: is it clear, are there mistakes in words and cases, how to say it right. Then it shows feedback and scores you against the exam criteria.

Do I need internet or a phone?

A phone with a microphone and internet is enough. Nothing to install — it all runs in the browser. A computer works too.

What about my data?

Right now we only keep what you enter in the form: contact, exam and date. We use it only to tell you about the launch. We don't share it and will delete it on request. Details are in the privacy policy.
