SpeakTune helps fluent Mandarin and Cantonese speakers practice the last mile of natural English: sentence melody, rhythm, stress, endings, pitch contour, and voice ease. If people understand your words but your English still feels flat, tense, uncertain, or not fully natural, SpeakTune gives you focused practice with immediate feedback. How it works: Listen to a natural reference sentence. Record yourself saying the same sentence. Compare your pitch contour with the reference. Get feedback on sentence endings, voice tension, and the biggest mismatch. Try again with one clear next step. SpeakTune is not a beginner pronunciation app. It is built for people who already speak English and want to sound more natural in meetings, interviews, calls, and daily conversation. The current version includes sentence-level practice, reference voices, visual pitch feedback, progress tracking, and optional premium access for unlimited practice.
