Founded in 2022 (formerly Quazel before rebranding to Univerbal), selected for WIRED's Hottest 100 Startups in Europe 2024, and attracting 50,000+ users in the first two days of launch, Univerbal serves the language learner segment that needs speaking practice with an AI partner available any time, at any pace, without the social pressure of speaking with a human teacher or conversation partner.
