What is speaker coach in Clipchamp?
Speaker coach is a free AI feature that delivers personalized feedback on videos and audio recorded inside Clipchamp.
The AI technology evaluates the pace and intonation of your speech, making suggestions to improve the overall engagement of your audio track. Speaker coach can also flag your use of filler words such as “umms” and repetitive phrases to show how you can make your audio sound more polished.
Speaker coach insights are shared in a simple report after you finish a screen and webcam recording or voice recording. Apply the advice while recording retakes or simply keep the information to practice your communication skills later.
The AI speaker coach isn’t just for recording speeches—it’s a must-have tool for recording professional work videos and engaging educational videos. Applying the insights can help you record impactful audio for your presentation voiceover, virtual learning videos, training videos, and more.
Tips for using speaker coach
If you’re creating a presentation video or following a video script, take a look at these helpful tips.

How to use speaker coach when recording a video or voiceover
Users recording a video or audio with the screen and webcam recorder, online webcam recorder, screen recorder, and audio recorder have the ability to use speaker coach.
Please note that speaker coach is powered by Microsoft Speech Services and is one of the cloud-enhanced features in Microsoft 365. Your speech utterances will be sent to Microsoft in a secure manner to provide you with this service.
Step 1. Select a recording feature
To use the speaker coach feature, you must record your video directly in Clipchamp. Click on the record & create tab on the toolbar, then click either screen and camera, camera, screen, or audio button.
For this tutorial, we have chosen to use the online webcam recorder.
A popup window will appear with permissions. Allow Clipchamp access to your camera and microphone if you haven't used the webcam recorder before.
Step 2. Turn on the speaker coach feature
In the recording menu, click on the speaker coach button.
Speaker coach is turned off in default settings. Click on the turn on speaker coach button to turn on the feature.

Before saving and editing your video, you can review your speech analysis such as feedback on your pace, tone variation and more. If you do not click on the review speech button before returning to the editor, you will not be able to see your speech analytics for that recording.
Next, you will be able to view your use of filler words and repetitive language as well as your speaking pace and intonation. Take a screenshot to save your speaker coach analysis. Click on the back button when you have finished reviewing and ready to edit your video recording.
Step 5. Save your recording
Saving options will appear. To save or retake your video, click retake or click save and edit button to return to the editor.
