+GrammarQuery was built as a project for the Unversity of Pittsburgh's
+[SheInnovates 2022](http://sheinnovates.us/) Hackathon. It's a voice-based
+language learning tool that prompts you with real-world questions that the user
+replies to by speaking. It complements other language learning tools that are
+focused on learning vocabulary and grammar by teaching the user to use English
+in a conversational manner.
+
+A live version of GrammarQuery can be found at
+[nickzana.github.io/grammarquery](https://nickzana.github.io/grammarquery/).
+
+## Technical Details
+
+GrammarQuery works by using the [Web Speech
+API](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Speech_API) to speak
+the question to the user, then translate the user's audio response to text.
+
+This transcribed text is then sent to the [GrammarBot
+API](https://www.grammarbot.io), where the returned errors are presented to the
+user.
