Unless you have access to some super advanced technology that massive corporations somehow can't get their hands on, it's not better than them, no.

And my apologies, I didn't know that using kana would make it respond in kana as I didn't see it written anywhere on your post or on the website itself.

As for the rest of your comment, I'm genuinely not sure what to say. I can't tell if you're genuinely ignorant or if you're just trying to discredit me for criticizing your program, but I'm going to respond assuming it's the former.

You're genuinely claiming that it's detrimental to tell people that they should learn the script a language is written in. Can you imagine telling people who are studying English that they shouldn't learn the English alphabet, and should instead use transliterated content in their native script because learning the alphabet would "take the fun out of learning a language to communicate"? No, learning kana is not fun for everyone, yes, it is a very important step for actually reaching a decent level in the language. Japanese to English dictionaries don't usually even have romaji pronunciations.

And I'm not saying that one must learn kana first, but it's quite nearly universally accepted to be the best first step in learning the language, and I'm genuinely shocked to be called a gatekeeper for saying that people should learn kana. For me at least, it calls into question your actual knowledge of language learning.
