Product highlight
Ummā¦ so, like, do you ever, like, canāt find the right thing to like, say? Or like, you use a lot ofĀ unnecessaryĀ filler words to get your point across? This might be one of the reasons the makers behindĀ YoodliĀ are claiming thatĀ ā2 out of 3 people are afraid of public speaking.ā
Itās also why theyāre buildingĀ Yoodli, an AI-powered speech coach that helps you improve your communication skills through private and judgment-free feedback on things like pacing, using filler words, and making eye contact.Ā
Who is this for?Ā With 300,000+ folks already using the app across the world, the makers highlight that their initial goal has been to help those who are often ātalked over,ā such as immigrants and introverts. That doesnāt mean others canāt benefit from using it. We could all use a little helping hand in how we communicate ā be it for job interviews, work presentations, or everyday conversations.
How it works:Ā You can add Yoodli to your Zoom calls or record a speech to see a real-time transcript and analytics on how often you say āumā and āuh,ā how quickly you speak, and whether youāve interrupted others. Once youāre feeling comfortable, you can share your speech with coaches to receive timestamped feedback. Yoodli also gives you access to courses built by public speaking experts like TEDx speakers.Ā
Weāve seen other similar tools in the past, likeĀ PoisedĀ andĀ BeneTalk, and it seems like the surge in AI developments is encouraging more makers to find practical use cases. Weāre here for it.Ā
