You must be at least 13 years of age to use the Service. By using PitchBuddy, you represent and warrant that you meet this age requirement and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.

  • Insights on clarity, pacing, filler words, and other speaking metrics
  • Practice tracking and progress monitoring
  • Personalized recommendations for improvement

Important: PitchBuddy processes your audio in real time to generate feedback. We do not store or save your audio recordings. Audio is processed temporarily during your session and then automatically discarded.
