How it works

One minute. Three steps. Every day.

No scripts and no prep time, just like the conversations that actually matter. Each rep takes about as long as making coffee.

    Get your notes

    Within seconds you get a score, what worked, and the one thing to focus on in your next rep.

AI feedback

Feedback that tells you what to change.

Not a pat on the back, and not a wall of generic tips. Vervo reads what you actually said and gives you notes you can use on the very next try.

  • A score out of 100

    One honest number for the whole answer, so you can see it move rep after rep.

  • Clarity, structure, relevance

    Three sub-scores show whether you were easy to follow, well organized and on topic.

  • What worked

    Specific strengths quoted from your own answer, so you know what to keep doing.

  • A stronger opening

    A first line you could have used, to make your point land from the start.

Try opening with

“The only risks worth taking are the ones you'd learn from even if they fail.”

Daily practice

A minute a day adds up.

Speaking well is a skill, and skills come from reps. Vervo keeps the habit small enough to never skip, and shows your progress so you can see it working.

  • Streaks

    See which days you showed up this week, and keep the run going.

  • Minutes spoken

    Every rep counts toward your total time speaking out loud.

  • Words per minute

    Track your pace and find the speed that sounds calm and clear.

From our testers

Simple idea. Noticeable difference.

“I used to freeze whenever someone asked me a random question. Practicing for just a minute a day has made it so much easier to think on my feet.”

C

Charlton M.

Beta tester

“The AI feedback is actually useful. It pointed out how often I say ‘um’ and repeat myself. I’m already noticing a difference in how I speak.”

S

Sophie L.

Beta tester

“Such a simple concept but it works. I do a few rounds before meetings and it helps me organize my thoughts and speak with more confidence.”

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What is impromptu speaking?

Speaking without preparation: answering an interview question, replying in a meeting, or explaining an idea on the spot. It's the kind of speaking most of us do every day, and the kind almost nobody practices.

How long does a session take?

One rep is a single minute of speaking, plus a few seconds to read your notes. Most people do one to three reps a day.

Which languages can I practice in?

You practice in your iPhone's language: English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Polish, Dutch, Turkish, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish or Arabic. Topics, speech recognition and feedback all follow it.

Does Vervo record my voice?

Your speech is turned into text on your iPhone wherever the device supports it. Only the transcript and topic are sent for AI feedback; your audio isn't uploaded.

What does the feedback look at?

Clarity, structure and relevance to the topic. You also get what worked, what to try next, and a stronger opening line you could have used.

How much does it cost?

Vervo is a subscription for iPhone and iPad. You'll see the available plans and prices in the app before you pay, and you can cancel anytime in your App Store settings.
