What Articulate is

Articulate is an iOS app that uses AI to assess speech recordings and give feedback on clarity. Users choose from more than 365 prompts and record answers of up to 60 seconds. The app reports a clarity score, filler words per minute, speaking pace, and a transcript with fillers highlighted; it detects more than 14 filler-word patterns, including “um,” “uh,” “like,” and “you know.” Progress tools include streaks, statistics, charts, and insights. Pro adds a filler-word timeline, sentence-by-sentence breakdown, and personalized tips on filler habits. The app is presented for interview preparation, career growth, everyday conversations, presentations, and public speaking. The product site says recordings are encrypted, used only for personal analysis, and not shared or sold. Recording requires microphone access, and AI analysis requires an internet connection. The Free plan costs nothing and allows three recordings per week. Pro costs $4.99 a month, billed $4.99/month, and includes unlimited recordings and advanced insights.
