Strengths

  • Roleplay lets you practice real-world conversations with AI characters, such as ordering at a café.
  • Video Call with the character Lily offers open-ended spoken practice and remembers earlier calls.
  • Includes all Super Duolingo benefits.

Considerations

  • Costs about $30/month (or $168/year), roughly double Super Duolingo.
  • Duolingo began rolling Video Call out to Super subscribers in 2026, so Max's extra value over Super is narrowing.
  • The AI features are an add-on to the traditional, gamified Duolingo structure, which may not suit all learning styles.
