Speak Street Interview by StreetTalk

StreetTalk helped Speak show that language barriers cost real opportunities with a conversation creative product demo in Miami. The goal was finding someone who'd lost actual sales because they don't speak Spanish and introducing the app right there. Personal stakes made the demo urgent.

I mean, I just started a sales job and I've lost sales just because I don't know Spanish. I know a little bit, but not fluent. So we're going to change that today. We have this app called Speak.

Qué buena fiesta, ¿no? ¿Cómo te llamas?

Host [0:08]

This party is great. My name's Derek. So it translates it for you into Spanish in real time. That's sick, man.

Guest 1 [0:13]

Perdona, ¿te importa si me siento aquí?

Host [0:16]

No problem. Yeah, you can sit here. Gracias. Soy Carlos. ¿Cómo te llamas? So even if you don't understand that, you can translate it and it'll tell you right then and there what it is in English. It sounds like Duolingo, but better, right? Sounds good.

Guest 1 [0:27]

I'm going to definitely use this. Probably a lot better when it comes to flashcards and everything. It doesn't really help me compared to Speak.

Host [0:32]

I would say honestly it's a very, very cool thing. I would definitely recommend Speak. Definitely much easier than picking up a book and trying to just read. You heard it. Go download Speak.
