Accent Detector

Who it is for

Anyone who has been asked to repeat themselves in English and wants to know which words cause it. It is most useful a week or more before an interview, so there is time to practise the sounds it finds. If you are worried about grammar rather than pronunciation, the grammar detector is the better first step.

What it checks

• One spoken answer of about 30 to 60 seconds, to a common interview question.
• Patterns linked to your first language that may make a word harder to catch, and the grammar habits that show up when you speak under pressure.
• A first-language clarity score, with the patterns behind it named so you know what to practise.

How to use it

1. Choose your first language.
2. Press record and answer the question as you would in a real interview. Speak naturally — do not slow down for the tool.
3. Read the patterns it found and say the same answer again, focusing on one of them.

What it cannot do

• It does not judge whether your accent is good or bad. Having an accent is normal; the goal is being understood.
• One short recording is a small sample. A pattern it does not find may still be there, and a pattern it finds may not appear every time you speak.
• Your audio is processed once and not stored.

Common questions

Will this tool tell me to change my accent?

No. It points to specific sounds that may make a word harder to understand. Clarity is the goal, not sounding like a native speaker.

Do I need to sign up?

No. The check is free and needs no account. You can choose to leave an email for your results.
