One startup that inspires me is Duolingo, co-founded by Luis von Ahn, a visionary who also created CAPTCHA and reCAPTCHA. Luis and his team’s mission is remarkable: to make quality education accessible to everyone, regardless of income. They transformed the way millions approach language learning by combining cutting-edge AI with gamification, making the process fun and highly engaging. What truly stands out is their focus on inclusivity and accessibility. Duolingo offers its core services for free, ensuring that even those in underserved communities can benefit. The team’s creativity shines in their playful approach—using leaderboards, streaks, and rewards to keep learners hooked while achieving real results.
