THE ECHOGUIDE FAMILY
Speaking support, built for the moments that matter most.
EchoGuide is a quiet rehearsal companion that listens as you speak, follows along in real time, and gives you a calm place to find your voice.
There is a tool for every setting; the classroom and the chapel, the stage and the ward, the kitchen table and the conference room.
One philosophy, many tools
Every EchoGuide product runs on the same idea: confidence comes before competence, and the right support should feel invisible.
Real-time, not retrospective
EchoGuide listens as you speak and surfaces gentle guidance in the moment, so you stay anchored without breaking eye contact with your audience.
Dignity-first design
No red crosses, no shaming, no punitive scoring.
EchoGuide supports your nervous system, not your inner critic.
Privacy by design
Audio is not recorded. Scripts stay on your device. There is no cloud AI, no tracking, and no third-party data processors.
Built for real brains
Dyslexia-supportive backgrounds, fuzzy speech matching that forgives accent and pace, and a calm visual rhythm that reduces cognitive load.
The EchoGuide tools
Five tools, one shared engine.
Pick the one that fits where you are right now.

EchoGuide™ Events
For weddings, services, ceremonies, gigs
The events build of EchoGuide, designed for moments where loose pages would feel wrong.
You are guided to plan, write and refine your speech; schedule rehearsals for delivery in your calendar; then on the day, warm up and have a final run through, before having your next words illuminated, guiding you through to your deserved standing ovation.
Speakers rehearse in their own words, then deliver from a calm screen that follows them without stealing their attention from the room.
The "no loose pages" ethos, by design
Coaching prompts to help speakers use their own voice
Calm-mode visuals tuned for low-light venues
Optional partner support for venue and ceremony work

The beacon glides ahead of the speaker like a torch beam, and movement, breath and pacing cues attach directly to specific words in the script.
Designed for performers who find traditional rehearsal formats anxiety-inducing.

Inside every EchoGuide tool
The same engine sits underneath every product.
Here is what it does, in plain language.
Beacon highlighting
The brightest point on screen sits four words ahead of where you actually are, pulling your eye gently forward.
The beacon glides rather than leaps.

Fuzzy speech matching
EchoGuide listens phonetically, not literally. It forgives accent, pace, contractions and small paraphrasing, so it does not stall when a real human voice does what real human voices do.
Pacing and timing feedback
Words-per-minute tracking, gentle pacing notes and chunk-by-chunk rehearsal, so you can find a rhythm that suits the moment rather than chasing a generic speed.
Cue prompts
Tap any word in the script and attach a reminder: breathe here, pause, look up, smile, step forward. The cue surfaces as the beacon reaches the word, then quietly fades away.
Drag-to-reposition
If the system gets it wrong, you are still in charge. Press on any word and drag the beacon to where you actually are; the recogniser picks up smoothly from the new spot.
Presenter notes
Attach context, tone notes or staging reminders to any section of a script. Visible in rehearsal, hidden during a clean run if you prefer.
Offline-first PWA
EchoGuide installs to any device as a Progressive Web App. It works without Wi-Fi, without app stores, and without IT involvement.
Adjustable visual chrome
Calm mode, high-contrast mode, font size, font family and colour theme are all under the speaker's control; settings persist between sessions.
Reading backgrounds, grounded in research
EchoGuide's dyslexia-supportive palette is taken directly from the Rello & Bigham (2017) ASSETS study, which measured reading time and cognitive load across colour backgrounds. Warm tones won. These are the approved reading surfaces inside every EchoGuide product.
