Become a Coucou
Founding Member.
You've been invited to join Coucou Membership before anyone else and enjoy exclusive founding benefits while helping shape the future of language learning.
Discover the MembershipBefore opening Coucou Membership to the public, we're inviting a small group of students to become our Founding Members.
As we put this founding group together, we thought about the students who would be excited by this vision and enjoy being part of its very beginning.
If you're reading this page, it's because we believe you'd be a wonderful part of that group.

What exactly is a Founding Member?
A Founding Member is someone who adheres to our human-led vision and becomes a member before the public launch of the membership in September. It's not a typical membership tier. It's a way to support what comes next, whether through your financial contribution, your input on key decisions, or both, and a permanent place in Coucou's story.
How will the upcoming Coucou membership differ from founding membership?
Founding membership exists only during this window and only for this first cohort. It comes with significantly more access and benefits than any future membership tier will offer, plus a level of input and proximity to the leadership of Coucou that won't be available again once the membership opens to the public in September.
When does my membership start?
6pm in Paris access and member pricing start July 22nd, which is also the deadline to join. From there, Founding Members who want to can elect to join the advisory committee for the parts of the membership still in development: the Coucou on-demand method, the new website, and the concierge service. This is your chance to give feedback, weigh in on key decisions, and help shape these pieces before they're finalized; it's part of what makes you a Founding Member, you're participating in building the future membership, not just subscribing to it. Your official membership clock starts at the public launch in September, since that's when you'll have full access to every perk.
Is this a subscription or a one-time payment?
It's a one-time founding contribution of $1,500. Your founding membership is active for one year from the date you join.
How do I become a Founding Member?
Simply click "Accept Your Invitation" and complete your purchase. There is no application: you've already been personally selected to receive this invitation.
How long is this offer available?
Founding Membership closes on July 22nd. Once the founding group is complete, it will not be available again at this price or with these benefits.
How many Founding Members will there be?
There's no fixed number. What matters more to us is making sure each Founding Member is genuinely aligned with this vision.
When do I get access to the on-demand curriculum and CinéPack library?
The 6pm in Paris CinéPack library is available immediately upon approval. The Coucou on-demand curriculum is still in development. Founding Members are invited to help shape it before it launches.
I already take classes at Coucou, can I still become a Founding Member?
Yes, this is exactly who founding membership is for. It adds to, and deepens, the experience you already know.
What happens after the founding period ends in September?
The new membership tiers open to the public. Founding Members keep their benefits for the full year and their place in Coucou's story permanently.
Is this available to online students or only in-person?
Founding membership is open to everyone, whether you take classes in our Nolita studio or online.
What payment methods do you accept?
Payment happens directly on our website. We accept all major credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Link, as well as Affirm if you'd like to pay in installments.
Is the founding contribution refundable?
No, the founding contribution is non-refundable.
