# Outloud

### What is Outloud?

Outloud turns studying into a conversation. Instead of passively reading notes, you **explain concepts out loud** to AI personas who push you to think deeper.

After 3 turns, get scored on coverage, clarity, correctness, and causality—with a **visual heatmap** showing exactly which parts were strong, vague, or wrong.

#### Key Features

&#x20;**Voice-First Interface** - Record yourself explaining concepts

* **4 AI Personas** - Mentor, Critic, Buddy, Coach
* **Smart Evaluation** - 4-dimensional scoring system
* **Visual Heatmap** - Color-coded feedback on every segment
* **AI Voice Responses** - Natural TTS in persona-matched voices
* **Cross-Platform** - iOS & Android
