Is the free plan really enough for me?↓
The free plan has no time limit. It includes the first 8 lessons of your own level and the first 2 of every other level, the first 10 grammar topics, 2 reading texts per level, the first Natural Turkish collection, the first dialogue of each level, the first word decks and listening dialogues, the first 8 Kids worlds, and 25 AI uses (AI coach, AI Tutor and live calls) that come back every 48 hours. Plus opens everything and removes the AI limit.
Can I cancel my subscription anytime?↓
Yes. Open your Profile → Subscription and choose Cancel, or use the link in the Paddle receipt email you got after paying. You keep Plus until the end of the period you have already paid for, and you are not charged again. We also offer a 7-day money-back guarantee if you change your mind right after subscribing.
Do I need prior Turkish knowledge?↓
Not at all! We start from absolute zero (A0) — the Turkish alphabet, pronunciation, and first words. When you sign up, you take a short placement quiz so we can find the perfect starting point for you. Whether you're a complete beginner or already know some basics, the platform adapts to your level.
How is this different from Duolingo or other apps?↓
Turkish with Buse is made only for Turkish. You get clear grammar explanations, natural everyday phrases, real dialogues with natural voices, and a structured path from A0 to C1. With the AI coach you can talk with Buse in live AI calls and record answers to get feedback on grammar, word choice and pronunciation.
Which features use AI, and what are the limits?↓
The AI Tutor (conversation and roleplay), the live call, the Writing Coach, the Speaking Coach and the Kids voice chat use AI (Google Gemini). Each of these uses one free AI use: you get 25 every 48 hours on the free plan, and Plus has no fixed limit (fair use). The natural Turkish voice and the translations also use AI but are not counted. Lessons, grammar topics, quizzes, reading texts, stories, the Word Lab and the Kids games are prepared content and do not use AI. AI can make mistakes, and pronunciation feedback is an estimate, not an exact measurement. What you type or say to the AI is sent to Google to create the answer; we do not save your voice recordings.
Which plan should I choose?↓
Weekly ($3.99) — Perfect if you want to try everything risk-free before a longer commitment.
Monthly ($9.99) — Best for consistent learners who want steady weekly progress without a long-term lock-in.
Annual ($79) — Ideal if you're serious about reaching conversational fluency. You save 34% vs. monthly.
Lifetime ($149) — The best value if you're in it for the long run. Pay once: Plus never expires and includes the new lessons and features we add.
