FAQ

How does this test work?

You talk for 20–40 seconds about anything. The tool listens to how your pitch moves, how your energy rises and falls, whether you use pauses strategically, and whether you stress the right words. These four dimensions combine into a Variety Score.

What counts as monotone?

A voice is monotone when it stays at a single pitch level with little energy change and no meaningful pauses or emphasis. This sounds robotic, disengaged, or flat — even when the content is interesting. A varied voice uses rises and falls, speeds up and slows down, stresses key words, and pauses for effect.

Is my recording stored or shared?

No. Your recording is processed for the analysis and never shared. You don't need an account to use the tool.

Is it really free?

Yes. Completely free with no signup. There's a fair-use daily limit per IP to keep it responsive for everyone.
