Preply operates an online marketplace for live, one-to-one language tutoring delivered through its app and website. Learners choose from a large pool of vetted tutors across dozens of languages and schedule lessons at their own pace, with the platform matching individuals to tutors by goals, level, and availability. It also offers Preply Business, a corporate training product that provides personalized language lessons and AI-assisted practice for employee teams.
The company primarily serves individual adult and younger learners seeking to improve language skills for work, study, or travel, as well as enterprises that need scalable corporate language training. Preply competes in the online language-learning and corporate training markets, positioning itself as a tutor-led alternative to self-paced apps and group classes. Revenue comes from commissions on tutor earnings and subscription or enterprise plans.
