Goodbye for now

Poligo will pause on July 31st. Read on for details.

Dear everyone,

We have made the really difficult decision to pause operations at Poligo. Things are really tough these days, and it is hard for us at Poligo. Since AI came along, usage of Poligo has really dropped a lot. Nathan and I started Poligo in 2008 when the world was very different, and Poligo has helped so many students with their English and written communication in so many different ways. It's been a real pleasure to work with you all.

We hope that we will come back, since we believe there is a need for a human-powered learning learning service like this.

The store is now closed, so you will not be able to buy more points. Please make sure you use all the points you have left before the end of July! We can also convert your points into lessons on our other platforms: The English Farm & Convo.Works!

If you have questions, please email me matthew@poligo.com

Warm wishes,
Matthew
