## What is Talkbeats?

Talkbeat is a silent presenter timer and rehearsal coach for talks, pitches, standups, lessons, sermons, workshops, and timed practice.

Set a total length and cue interval, then run a large stage-readable countdown. Talkbeat delivers haptic cue pulses at each pacing mark and a stronger finale at the end, so you can keep time without audible alerts.

Version 2.0 adds the Rehearsal Brief:
* Script density check using 110 / 130 / 150 words-per-minute pace bands and a live-delivery speedup estimate.
* Slide cadence review to flag decks that are too dense or too sparse for the slot.
* Risk findings for overlong scripts, thin rehearsal history, high-nerves pressure passes, and heavy cue load.
* Drill ladder with table read, opening/close reps, no-stop full pass, and pressure pass.
* Cue strategy that helps keep haptics as pacing feedback instead of a second script.
* 14 bundled offline field-guide cards for pace, cue load, slide cadence, Q&A buffers, remote rooms, demo resets, handoff cues, recovery lines, and trim passes.

Core Talkbeat tools:
* Silent haptic presenter timer with a giant countdown.
* Stage Glance Live Activity for Lock Screen and Dynamic Island timing.
* Segment plans with current section, ahead/behind pace, and boundary cues.
* Format library for TED-style talks, lightning talks, Pecha Kucha, Ignite, elevator pitches, investor pitches, and more.
* Script calculator for word count, target time, speaking pace, and suggested cue interval.
* Session history with completion streak, average run trends, and CSV export.
* Local presets, haptic settings, screen-awake option, VoiceOver labels, Dynamic Type, and Reduce Motion support.

Talkbeat is private by design: no account, no developer server, no ads, no analytics SDK, and no tracking.
