TripLingo is a startup company based in Atlanta, Georgia and founded by Jesse Maddox. While travelling abroad, he found that there were no great solutions out there that easily taught him the languages he needed to know. Direct translations also put him in some very bad situations and he came up with a language training tool that taught users how to speak like the locals.
