SPEAKING.APP

Practice Your Best Man Speech Out Loud.

Rehearse out loud before you stand up with the microphone.

speaking.app does not write the speech. Record the best man speech you already have, check its length, and review your pace, pauses, filler words, and transcript before the wedding.

So, basically, a brilliant message kind of dies if you, like, can't hold the room, you know.

The feedback

Analyze your delivery. Refine your words.

Every filler word, weak word, and repetition gets flagged. See where your speech lands, and let the tool tighten the parts that ramble. Toggle the layers, or switch to the clean rewrite.

Transcript
Highlights
Um, so, for those who don't know me, I'm Sarah, and I've, I've basically been Emma's best friend since, like, the third grade. I just want to say that, honestly, Emma is one of the kindest, most loyal, funniest people I've ever met. When she met Jack, I could, I could kind of tell right away something was different. She smiled more. She, um, laughed more. She was just happier. And that's really what love is supposed to do, you know?

What you get

01

Fit the speech into the time you were given

Ask the couple or organizer for the expected length, then record a complete run. If it is too long, the transcript makes it easier to find repeated context, extra stories, and tangents to cut.

02

Check the pauses around jokes and stories

The analysis maps pace and pauses across the recording. Use it to find punchlines, names, or important details that you rushed past.

Someone in the group said: 'Wow, your opening was so good.' I said, 'I got it from the speaking app.'

It was the least nervous I've ever felt pitching, despite it probably being the biggest audience I've pitched to. The constructive feedback I received helped me practise properly and know my pitch better than ever.

It helped me turn a rough, jargon-heavy pitch into something much clearer and more compelling.

The rewritten version and the filler-word feedback were huge, they showed me exactly where I was using filler words and helped me cut them.

It did exactly what I needed for the showcase. I'd come back to it for another event and would refer other founders to it.

The hard 3-min stop was annoying at first but such a good setup for me to cut excess out.

Off the back of how the pitch went, I was introduced to an investor, and I genuinely think that outcome was a direct result of the improvements I made through speaking.app.

In the early stages I was also using the recommended adjustments verbatim while I was building out the flesh of my pitch, as I found them to be quite high quality.

Common questions

How long should a best man speech be?

Ask the couple or organizer because expectations differ between weddings. If no limit was given, a concise speech with one or two relevant stories is usually easier for guests to follow than a long collection of anecdotes. Record the complete speech to learn its actual speaking time.

How do I stop rushing my jokes?

Mark a pause before or after the important line and rehearse that short section separately. speaking.app maps pace and pauses across the recording, which can help you find lines that ran together.

Will it tell me if my speech is too long?

Yes. Every recording comes back with the full transcript and your actual run time, so a draft that reads as four minutes and speaks as six gets caught in rehearsal, not at the reception. The pacing feedback also shows where you sped up or slowed down, which usually points straight at the section to cut.

Can I practice just the opening?

Yes. Record the first 30 to 60 seconds, review the transcript and pace, and repeat it before moving on to a complete run. You do not have to rehearse the entire speech every time.

Is best man speech practice free?

Yes to start, no credit card required. Free practice includes feedback on filler words and pace, plus a full transcript. The full speech analysis is part of Pro at $19.99 per month or $99.99 per year. Pro adds detail for pauses, intonation, and vocal energy, and lets you upload a rehearsal recorded on your phone.
