About Vecinos
Vecinos is a web app for practising spoken Spanish by voice. It is made for Russian speakers who live in Spain or plan to move there, at roughly A1–B1 level. The app's interface is in Russian; the conversations are in Spanish.
How it works
- Open vecinos.ai in a phone or desktop browser, pick a neighbour and press «Начать разговор» (Start talking). Nothing to install.
- You talk by voice, in Spanish: a short meeting of about 5 minutes about everyday life next door — the weather, the café on the corner, chores, local news. The neighbour adapts to your level and sometimes gently corrects you.
- After each meeting you get a summary card: what went well, phrases worth remembering, and your personal list of expressions you heard.
- The first meeting is free and needs no sign-up. After that there is a subscription: «Соседи» (Neighbours, 450 minutes of conversation a month) or «Sobremesa» (600 minutes a month, including long 20–30-minute talks). Prices are on the Pricing page.
The neighbours are AI characters
Rosa, Diego and Carmen are artificial-intelligence characters, not people. They are practice partners for everyday-language situations — not virtual friends, companions or partners. Their replies are generated by AI and may be inaccurate; the service gives no medical, legal, financial or immigration advice.
What Vecinos is built on
Vecinos is an independent product of NOTICIA DOO, built on third-party AI models: speech recognition and the neighbours' replies use OpenAI models; the neighbours' voices use Inworld AI models. Vecinos is not affiliated with, endorsed or sponsored by OpenAI or Inworld AI; their names and model names belong to their owners. The characters, scenes, conversation rules and the app itself are made by the Vecinos team.
Who we are
The service is operated by NOTICIA DOO (Montenegro). Payments are processed by Creem, the merchant of record, who issues receipts and handles VAT. Support: hola@vecinos.ai; data questions: privacy@vecinos.ai.
