On-device by design: recording and analysis happen on your phone. Your video and audio never leave the device. Eight channels of analysis: voice (pitch, pace, pauses), face (expression, gaze, movement), and language. Learns your baseline: early sessions calibrate, and your scores become meaningful as it learns what is normal for you. Research-grounded prompts to record against, so every session gives the analysis something real to work with. Interview mode (Pro): analyze a two-person interview - the questioner's voice is filtered out, so only the answers are scored. Baseline is not a lie detector. It shows you where you deviate from your own patterns - a signal for self-reflection, never a verdict about you or anyone else. Terms of Use: https://pyroclastsystems-baseline.com/terms
