What’s your Voice Card?

You know what you meant to say. You don’t know how it came out: too fast, full of ums, flat. Talk for 30 seconds and get your speaking type, with the four numbers behind it.

Your voice is measured on your device. Nothing is recorded or uploaded.

Want a 7-day drill for your type?

One two-minute drill a day, matched to how you talk: slow the sprint, swap the ums for pauses, or put life into a flat voice.

How to read your type

Your type comes from three things measured together: how fast you talk, how often you hesitate, and how much your voice moves. It’s a mirror, not a grade. Every type has a real strength, and one habit that gets in its way. There are eight:

  • The Sprinter: quick and driven, with momentum to spare.
  • The Live Wire: fast and animated.
  • The Thinker Aloud: honest and in the moment.
  • The Anchor: slow and deliberate.
  • The Quiet Expert: fluent and precise, in an even voice.
  • The Storyteller: expressive and easy to listen to.
  • The Closer: clear and fluent, with room to breathe.
  • The Steady Hand: even and easy to follow.

What the numbers mean

Pace is words a minute, estimated from the syllables in your voice, so it works without turning speech into text. Large studies of phone conversation put the average at roughly 150 to 200, depending on how pauses are counted; 120 to 165 is the band most listeners find easy to follow. Hesitations are the ums and uhs the engine hears in the audio, per minute of talking. Nobody needs zero; clusters are what listeners notice. Pauses count the stops of half a second or more. Pitch variety is the spread of your voice in semitones: under 4 tends to sound flat, 6 or more sounds engaged.

These are measured from one short take, in whatever room you’re in. A second take on another day will differ a little. That’s normal, and it’s why SpeakWings benchmarks you on the same task each week.

What good looks like

There isn’t one right pace or pitch. Strong speakers change gear: quick through the setup, then slower for the point, with a clean pause where an um would have gone. The goal is range you can choose, not a single number.

What to do next

Each type maps to one drill in the 30-day Voice foundations track. It’s where pace, pauses, ums and pitch get trained, one measured session a day. Getting ready for an interview? The free 60-second voice scan measures you answering “Tell me about yourself.” Plans are on the pricing page.
