Ask HN: Would You Pay for an AI-Powered Speech Therapy App for Kids?

Hey HN,

I'm working on LingoPaws, an AI-powered speech training app for kids struggling with articulation. Unlike traditional speech therapy, it provides real-time feedback, gamified practice, and AI-generated exercises tailored to each child's speech patterns.

We’re testing whether parents (or even speech therapists) would find value in this before scaling. The biggest problem we’re solving: speech therapy is expensive, limited in availability, and often not engaging for kids.

Would you pay for an app like this?

If you're a parent, would you subscribe for $10-20/month if it helps your child improve faster?

If you're a speech therapist, would you use it as a tool to complement therapy?

Do you think this approach solves a real problem, or is there a better way to tackle it?

We have a basic prototype and a waitlist for early access: https://www.lingopaws.com/en

Would love your feedback, especially from those who have experience in edtech, AI, or speech therapy!
