Yes for daily speaking reps. No as a total replacement for humans when the stakes are high. Here is the honest split.

How to structure short sessions so they build fluency, not just check a box, when you only have a few minutes a day.
Why small, consistent word practice beats occasional cramming, and how to design a routine you will not quit after a week.
Verbi turns short sessions into steady progress: a daily word feed, adaptive practice, and streak tools that fit real life.
