VOCODE

Inspiration

Public speaking is terrifying, yet most feedback leaves people feeling judged with vague critiques like "sound more confident." We built VOCODE to replace that anxiety with empathetic, actionable guidance. Listening to
masterclass voices taught us that great speakers aren't superhuman—they simply embrace silence, letting stillness carry nearly $20\%$ of their rhythm. Our hardest challenge was honoring the speaker's humanity; early flaw
simulations turned voices into cold robotic buzz and metallic distortion. We had to fight to protect the natural warmth of the human voice so our coach listens with genuine understanding, not just clinical scrutiny.
