Built by Someone Who Actually Lives in Mexico

The Story

I moved to Mexico and fell in love — with the people, the culture, the street tacos, the weather, all of it.

But I couldn't have a real conversation. I'd been studying Spanish for months — Duolingo every day, YouTube channels, even a tutor twice a week. I could conjugate verbs on paper, but when someone at the taqueria said "¿Qué le ponemos?", I just stared. Every time.

Then I stumbled onto something linguists call the chunks method. Instead of memorizing individual words and grammar rules, you learn complete phrases — the exact sentences native speakers actually say. Ready-made chunks of real language.

It clicked fast. I started learning 5-10 phrases a day, and within a few weeks I was ordering food confidently, chatting with my neighbors, and even cracking jokes. In Spanish.

I still live in Mexico, and every phrase in this app has been tested in real conversations with real Mexicans — at the market, the mechanic, the taqueria, family gatherings, and everywhere in between. I continue to refine and add phrases based on what I actually hear and use every day.

I looked for an app that taught Mexican Spanish this way. It didn't exist. So I built one.

The Mission

PalabraFlow has one goal: help you actually speak Mexican Spanish. Not pass a test. Not complete a lesson streak. Not earn virtual badges. Just speak — confidently and naturally — in real conversations with real Mexicans.

Every decision we make comes back to that goal. That's why we focus on complete phrases instead of isolated vocabulary. It's why we organize by real-life situations instead of grammar topics. And it's why every phrase in the app comes from actual Mexican conversation, not a textbook.

Why Mexican Spanish Specifically?

Mexican Spanish is the most widely spoken variety of Spanish, with over 130 million speakers. But most Spanish learning apps teach a "neutral" Castilian Spanish that sounds foreign in Mexico. The vocabulary is different. The slang is different. Even common expressions are different.

If you're living in Mexico, traveling to Mexico, or connected to Mexican culture, you deserve an app that teaches you the real thing. That's PalabraFlow.
