Five alternatives to Speeko
Charisma Lab
WHAT YOU DO Talk out loud about the moment you're preparing for, then hear your recording played back. The AI coach tells you what to fix, like "drop your pitch on the last three words," and you say it again. Train splits delivery into 48 techniques across six skills. Voice Cam on the home screen shows your volume, pitch and pauses as you talk.
NEXT TO SPEEKO Both give you AI feedback on how you speak. Speeko pairs its feedback with roleplays, courses and human coaches. Charisma Lab's coach gives spoken feedback on the talk or answer you're preparing, then sends you back to say it again.
PICK IT IF you know your material and lose the room on how you say it: statements that rise like questions, a flat voice, sentences that trail off.
BEFORE YOU PAY Made for iPhone and iPad. Setup is free and includes a short live session with the coach. After that the app needs Pro, which is $14.99 a month in the US. That's less than Speeko's $24.99 monthly plan. We have no yearly plan, so a year of Pro costs $179.88, and Speeko's yearly Full Access plan is $99.99. We're new, so we only have 14 ratings.

Practice out loud with an AI coach in Charisma Lab
Charisma Lab is a speaking coach on your iPhone. In Speak, tap the center and tell the coach what you're preparing for, like a talk or an interview. Say it out loud one part at a time. A pause of about two seconds ends a take. You hear the take played back, then the coach tells you what to fix and sends you back in.
To see your delivery while you talk, open Voice Cam on the home screen and record, with the camera or audio only. Each recording runs up to a minute. It shows your volume, pitch and pauses, plus an estimate of your pace in words per minute. Setup is free and includes a short live session with the coach. After that, the app needs Pro, which is $14.99 a month in the US. See pricing.
