How to practice public speaking alone
A repeatable way to record, review, and improve without an audience.
An AI speech coach for your practice
Record an answer to any exercise. Yapper Train transcribes it, scores it, marks what to fix in your own words and gives you one thing to work on next.
Your first feedback session is free.
Your speaking feedbackClarity
“I think, for me personally, the thing I learned was basically to ask for help. I spent two days stuck, and then someone helped me in ten minutes.”
Lead with what you learned.
Your example makes the point. Bring it forward and let it do the work.
What your answer is scored on
Each of the four is scored from 0 to 100, with a short explanation of why. Clear, Fluent and Expressive also use what was measured from your audio.
| Clear | How easily a listener understands you: your sounds, your grammar and your word choice. |
|---|---|
| Fluent | How smoothly it flows: pace, pauses in the right places, and few fillers. |
| Expressive | How much your voice carries the meaning: stress, rhythm and pitch. |
| Structured | Whether the point arrives in an order a listener can follow, from the opening to the close. |
How it works
01
Record an attempt
Do any exercise with your microphone on. A minute is enough to score.
02
Ask for feedback
Your recording is transcribed, then scored against the prompt you were answering. It takes about half a minute.
03
Try it again
Read the corrections, take the one suggested focus, and record the same prompt again to hear the difference.
Questions about feedback
What does the feedback look at?
The words you said and how you said them: structure, grammar, word choice, pace, pauses and filler words. It works from audio, so it does not judge eye contact or body language.
Is it free?
Practice is free. A new account gets one feedback session at no cost. After that, Train Plus gives you unlimited feedback.
Do I need to speak for a long time?
No. A recording needs at least a few sentences to be scored. If it is too short, you are told so and no session is used.
Will it make me a better speaker?
It tells you what happened in one attempt and gives you one thing to change. Improvement comes from repeating the exercise. It is not a guarantee of any result.
Are my recordings kept?
Your transcript, scores and coaching are saved to your account so you can see progress over time.
