Building literacy in Haitian Creole, one word at a time. A voice-first digital teacher for every Haitian adult who never had one.
"Aprann sé poté limyè." — Learning is carrying light.
Aprann is the digital teacher in their pocket. Voice-first, shame-free, and available 24/7 — in the language they already know and love.
Aprann was conceived and built by Heurtelou Jean-Marie in April 2026. Driven by a deep commitment to Haitian Creole literacy and the belief that every adult deserves access to education in their own language, Heurtelou created Aprann as a voice-first digital teacher for the millions of Haitian adults who never had one.
Every line of code, every pedagogical decision, every story, every feedback phrase, and every design choice in Aprann reflects Heurtelou's vision of what a truly accessible literacy tool for Haitian adults should be.
Aprann follows the same natural progression used by successful literacy programs worldwide — adapted for Haitian Creole's phonetic advantage.
Designed for adults who have never had a teacher. Every tap speaks. No reading required to navigate.
From the home screen to the AI tutor to the story reader — everything designed for the learner who never had a teacher.
