IELTS prep should not cost more than the exam

IELTSLab is an AI-powered IELTS preparation platform covering all four skills. You practice in the real computer-delivered exam format (the same timing, question types and on-screen tools), and the platform scores you instantly: Listening and Reading against answer keys with the official band conversion, Writing and Speaking with an AI examiner that applies the same four criteria human examiners use and shows a band for each.

• A growing library of full Listening tests across British, American, Australian, Indian and mixed accents, plus targeted drills
• Academic and General Training Reading tests covering every question type, with an explanation for every answer
• Writing Task 1 & 2 scored across Task Achievement/Response, Coherence & Cohesion, Lexical Resource, and Grammatical Range & Accuracy
• A full AI Speaking examiner for Parts 1, 2 and 3 with fluency, pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary feedback
• Full mock tests combining everything, with band-by-band results in seconds

Because the economics of IELTS prep are upside down almost everywhere. The exam costs a few hundred dollars, coaching costs more again, and the one thing candidates need most is the hardest to get: honest, specific feedback on their own work. A teacher with forty students cannot score forty essays a day against four criteria each. Software can, in seconds, every day, for a fraction of a single exam fee per month, and the free plan means every candidate can start with nothing but a browser.

We hold the scoring to the public standard: the official IELTS band descriptors. Writing is evaluated criterion by criterion with the reasoning shown, so you can see exactly how each band was reached. Speaking is transcribed and assessed for the things examiners listen for: fluency, pronunciation, grammatical range and lexical choice. Each score is a practice estimate designed to direct your work, not an official result.

IELTSLab is built by a small independent team based in the United States. We built it first for candidates in South Asia, where the gap between what coaching costs and what a student can pay is widest, and it is now used by candidates in more than forty countries. That starting point still shapes the product: prices are set against what a student can afford rather than what Western prep tools charge, and you pay in your own currency with the methods that work where you live. We align every scoring claim with the official band descriptors published by the IELTS partnership (British Council, IDP, Cambridge), and our guides cite official sources.
