A new startup has been launched in Leicester to help people build up their public speaking confidence.
Founder Aaron Wardle started SpeakMoreAI after his own difficulties with speech.
His platform, which is built with AI, enables users to record and practice their speech, reduce the amount of filler words they use, track their pace and clarity, and more.
Aaron, who’s building in public on this Instagram page, said:
“When I first started in business, public speaking terrified me. Even just standing up and saying my name gave me nerves. On my wedding day, I would’ve jumped out the window to avoid the speech… if we weren’t on the second floor 😅”
“Over time, I’ve gotten better speaking at work, leading meetings, giving talks. But even now, I still get a racing heart and stumble over words.
“That’s why I’ve created SpeakMore AI, an app to help people like me build real speaking confidence.”
