The sigma is also a greek symbol which is simple, cool and easy to remember

works well in low resolutions and I barely have seen it in other apps

the logo is just a simple capital sigma, common in math and science

Formula 100 is a method that follows the scientific method and proven approaches

we like science

Finally, using a number in the name will make it "translatable".

You can say:

- Formula one hundred
- Formula cien
- Formula hundert
- Formula [introduce your language here]

This name is just perfect 🌟

The 100 comes from the fact that our method teach you Spanish in 100 lessons.

We were also thinking the name "Formula 101" (which it is a common number for an introductory or basic level course) but I think is too much.

Formula 1 is the peak of motorsports. Formula 1 means speed, performance, and glamour. We have all except the last...

The name "Formula" is also very similar in multiple languages, so that helps branding (hopefully we can develop more languages in the future)

I was stuck on the name at first, had ideas like Ling Bolt, Lingua, Lingai... but I didn’t like them

then my girlfriend (she’s into F1 now like me) threw out Formula 100

still building this thing. still occasionally freezing up in supermarkets.

but now i'm building the solution i actually needed

who wants to be my first beta user for Spanish?

5/ what actually works

short practical phrases you'll use tomorrow.

with audio.

situations that actually happen to real humans buying groceries and living life.

4/ if you ever blank out in another language, you’re not alone

turns out everyone has their own 'tomato moment'

some freeze at restaurants. others panic at train stations.

same core problem: apps teach textbook stuff, life needs survival phrases.

3/ started learning a new way of learning

focused on real situations that made me sweat.

supermarket conversations. ordering coffee. asking for directions.

basically anywhere i'd previously just pointed and hoped for the best.

2/ existing apps missed the point

they teach you:

- perfect grammar structures
- formal conversation starters
- stuff you'll never actually say

but not 'help i'm blocking the produce aisle and need salt'

1/ the problem was real

studied german for months. felt confident.

then hit the supermarket and couldn't form basic sentences.

duolingo didn't prep me for 'excuse me where is the salt' panic mode.
