Start your first speech

Create the speech

1. 1Open your workspace and select Write a speech (top of the sidebar on desktop, top of the screen on mobile).
2. 2A new document opens in the editor. Give it a title; the title is how you'll find it in your Library later.
3. 3Write directly, paste from anywhere, or import an existing file (Word, PDF, text, Markdown, or RTF).

Expected result: the speech appears in your Library immediately and saves as you type. There is no Save button to remember.

The four rooms of the workspace

• Editor: draft and polish the script itself.
• Teleprompter: run the script on a stage that follows your voice.
• Freestyle: short drills for pace and filler words, no script needed.
• Debate: argue a motion against an AI opponent, then get a verdict.

Run your first practice

1. 1From the editor or the Library, open your speech in the Teleprompter.
2. 2Allow microphone access when the browser asks; the stage moves with your voice.
3. 3Speak naturally. When you finish, the session report shows pace, coverage, and where you went off script.
