Pronunciation Lab

Be understood the first time

Slow any word down, hear every sound, and compare it with your own voice. Private, patient, and free.

The problem

'Sorry, can you repeat that?'

You know the words, but they don't land. A few mispronounced sounds — the difference between 'sheet' and something awkward — can undo a whole sentence. And practicing pronunciation in front of people is embarrassing.

Our approach

Slow, small, private reps

The Lab gives you a private room to repeat any sound as many times as it takes.

Hear it slowly

Any word, slowed right down. Catch the exact shape of each sound.

Break it into parts

Long words become small syllables. Small syllables are easy.

Say it back

Repeat into the mic and see which sounds the browser heard.

Speed it up

When the slow version is easy, say it at normal speed. Then it's yours.

Try it

That's not the goal, and you don't need it to be. The goal is that people understand you the first time. Your accent is part of who you are — we polish clarity, not erase identity.
