Speak to Anyone vs Memrise

Memrise is a vocabulary app built around short native-speaker videos, with a chatbot for conversation practice. Speak to Anyone teaches the language of a trip and plans the trip in the same app. Here is how they compare on what we could check.

Checked against Memrise's own pages on 24 October 2026. Features and prices change, so compare the current ones on Memrise's site (opens in a new tab) and in the app.

Where Memrise is strong

  • Thousands of short videos of native speakers using the words you are learning.
  • Dedicated courses for Hindi, Cebuano, Romanian, Dutch and Polish, and Spanish (Mexico) and Portuguese for both Brazil and Portugal.
  • Free wordlists open to everyone, including travel themes.
  • A lifetime plan.

Where Speak to Anyone fits better

  • Trip planning, a travel map and saved videos in the same app as the lessons.
  • No ads and no limited free lessons: the whole course is open from the start.
  • A Hiligaynon guide, which we did not find on Memrise's pages.
