Get an
evaluator's notes
on any speech.
Upload a recording. SpeakGrade returns a scored report on fillers, pacing, vocal variety, and structure — plus the three things to work on next.
An ear for every um, pause, and beat.
SpeakGrade measures four things you can act on. Each one is scored, timestamped, and explained in plain language — not a wall of numbers.
Fillers
Every "um", "uh", "like", "you know" — counted and timestamped to the second.
Pacing
Words per minute over the whole talk, plus where your deliberate pauses landed.
Vocal variety
Pitch range and energy — are you landing emphasis, or droning in one note?
Structure
Opening, signposting, and whether the close actually closes the talk.
Three steps. Roughly three minutes.
No install, no waiting room, no setup. SpeakGrade runs a transcription, an acoustic pass, and an evaluator-style synthesis in parallel.
Upload a recording
An MP3, WAV, or M4A of any talk — up to twenty minutes.
SpeakGrade analyses it
Transcription, acoustic measurement, and an AI evaluator run together, not in sequence.
Get coached
An evaluator-style report with rubric scores, a pitch-and-pace timeline, and your top three actions.
Pitch & pace over time. And better words to say next.
Scores tell you where you stand. The chart and the rewrites tell you what to change — at which second, in which sentence.
Pitch & pace, second by second.
A two-line chart over the length of your talk: pitch in Hz, words per minute, and grey bands where you paused. Hover any peak to see what you were saying.
Better words to say next time.
3 rewritesSide-by-side phrasing edits at the exact second they happened — with a one-line explanation of why the new version lands.
"I think this is kind of an important point, you know, that we should sort of pay attention to."
"This is the point. Pay attention to it."
Why.You're at the climax of the open. Every hedge tells the room the speaker doesn't believe it either — strip them all.
A few things worth knowing upfront.
Is my recording stored anywhere?+−
No. Audio is kept only while your report is being generated, then deleted. We keep the report itself so you can come back to it from your dashboard; you can delete it at any time.
What languages does SpeakGrade support?+−
English transcription is the most accurate today. We can analyze most major European languages, but the rubric prompts are tuned for English speech-coaching conventions for now.
How long can a recording be?+−
Up to twenty minutes per upload, or 100 MB of audio — whichever you hit first. Most talks under fifteen minutes return a report in about three minutes.
What models is this built on?+−
A single adaptive-thinking Claude Sonnet call handles synthesis; Deepgram does transcription; Parselmouth and librosa handle the acoustic pass.
How much does it cost?+−
Every plan starts with a 7-day free trial. We ask for a card up front, but you're only charged after the trial and you can cancel any time before then. After that it's a simple monthly or yearly subscription for unlimited analyses — see the pricing page for current rates.
Do I need an account?+−
Yes — you sign in so your reports stay together across devices and your subscription follows you. Start the free trial, upload a recording, and your report is saved to your dashboard.
