TonePerfect vs Frantastique
Frantastique (from Gymglish) sends one adaptive French lesson to your inbox every morning, wrapped in a long-running comic story. It is the best habit mechanic in French learning for adults, and reviewers rate it highly. It is also, by design, a reading-and-listening course — speaking is prompted, not measured.

En résumé
Use Frantastique if a daily ten-minute lesson that adapts to your mistakes is what gets you to keep going — the writing is genuinely funny and the correction of grammar and vocabulary is excellent. It will not tell you anything about your accent, because it does not listen. TonePerfect scores every phoneme, and scores liaison as part of the word.
Questions fréquentes
Does Frantastique correct pronunciation?
It includes listening work and asks you to repeat phrases aloud, but there is no speech recognition and no recording of your voice, so nothing checks what you produced. Its corrections are on grammar, vocabulary and comprehension.
Why does liaison matter enough to build scoring around?
Because French links words together, and a learner who says each word cleanly in isolation sounds wrong in a way that is hard to self-diagnose. Scoring the expected linking sound as part of the word makes a dropped liaison visible instead of merely odd-sounding.
