Extracted from the web site:

> With Duolingo you learn a language and simultaneously translate the Web.
>
> Language differences remain a barrier for the global sharing of
> knowledge, and computers cannot process human language accurately. The
> more you learn at Duolingo, the more knowledge you make accessible to
> the world.
>
> Since you create shared value when you learn, you don’t have to pay
> for using Duolingo. We believe language education should be 100% free.
