Can AI Actually Improve Duolingo's Financials in 2026?
Artificial intelligence (AI) is now central to the Duolingo (NASDAQ: DUOL) story. But for investors, the real question isn't whether AI makes the app more interactive. It's whether AI structurally improves the economics.
In 2025, Duolingo expanded AI-powered features across its platform, including premium conversational tools within its higher-tier subscription plans. The product clearly improved. Engagement strengthened. Premium tiers gained traction.
The more important development, however, occurred beneath the surface, as AI began to impact long-term earnings.
