Do I Sound Autistic?
Record or upload your voice and see how closely your speech matches research-described atypical prosody patterns associated with autism — pitch, rhythm, pauses, expressiveness, and voice quality.
How it works
Your recording is analyzed automatically and never shared.
Estimated Average Pitch
Research often reports higher mean pitch in autistic speaker groups on average — but individual voices vary widely, and pitch alone never determines anything.
Research Dimension Scores
Higher scores mean more atypical cues were detected on that dimension relative to typical conversational speech.

Key Acoustic Markers
What Does the Research Say?
Peer-reviewed meta-analyses find group-level differences in autistic speech prosody — especially pitch — while stressing that findings are heterogeneous and there is no single “autistic voice.”
Pitch mean & variability
Meta-analyses often find higher mean pitch and greater pitch variability in ASD groups versus neurotypical peers (moderate effect sizes). Not every autistic speaker shows this.
Pitch range cuts both ways
Some studies report wider pitch range; others describe flat or reduced range. Both unusually narrow and unusually wide contours can count as atypical relative to typical conversation.
Rhythm and pauses
Cross-linguistic work has linked atypical pause patterns — including longer or more frequent pauses — and irregular timing to autistic speech profiles in some samples.
Voice quality & expressiveness
Clinical descriptions sometimes note creaky, breathy, or harsh quality, plus atypical affective prosody (flat or exaggerated). These cues are variable and never diagnostic alone.
Why Use This Tool?
Grounded in research dimensions
The analysis focuses on the same acoustic dimensions discussed in autism prosody literature: pitch, rhythm, pauses, expressiveness, and voice quality — not word content or personality quizzes.
Detailed breakdown, not a yes/no
You get a spectrum score, four research dimension bars, a six-part prosody profile, estimated pitch in Hz, markers, and research-linked notes.
Honest about limits
There is no universal autistic voice. This tool is for curiosity and education. It cannot diagnose autism and should never replace professional assessment.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does this autistic voice test work?
You record or upload a short clip. An AI model analyzes acoustic and prosodic features — average pitch, pitch range/variability, rhythm and pauses, speech rate, affective expressiveness, and voice quality — then estimates how closely those cues match patterns discussed in autism speech research.
Can this diagnose autism?
No. Autism cannot be diagnosed from a short voice recording. Diagnosis requires comprehensive clinical evaluation. This tool only reports whether certain research-linked acoustic patterns appear in your clip.
What research is this based on?
The dimensions reflect findings summarized in systematic reviews and meta-analyses of autistic speech prosody — including work on pitch mean/variability/range, pause and rhythm patterns, and voice-quality descriptions. Research findings are group-level averages with substantial individual variation.
Is my recording private?
Yes. Your audio is processed automatically for the analysis and is not shared. No account is needed to use the tool.
