About the project

A coach for how you speak — and how you treat people

Kyndsy notices what you say, keeps track of what you decided to work on, and hands it back to you as numbers you can check. Nobody else ever sees any of it.

What it is

Most self-improvement apps ask you to report on yourself. You tell them how the day went, and they draw a chart of your own opinion. Kyndsy starts from something harder to argue with: the words you actually used, counted while you were busy living.

Then it stops. It does not tell you what kind of person that makes you — that question has no honest answer, and an app that pretends otherwise is selling something.

Who it is for

People who suspect their speech has drifted and would like a second opinion that is not a person. Parents who noticed how they sound at the end of a hard day. Anyone who has to speak in public and is tired of hearing their own filler words on a recording.

It is rated 13+ and it is not a medical, psychological or diagnostic tool. It measures, it suggests, and it leaves the conclusions to you.

What it can do

Five areas, and they hold each other up

Your speech

Rough words, polite ones, filler words and a raised tone — counted per thousand words spoken, never as a raw total.
Irony, sarcasm, a joke and a genuinely sharp remark told apart, and labelled as a guess rather than a verdict.
The same word read differently when you are quoting someone, talking about yourself, or in the middle of an argument.
Your own word lists, for the things a dictionary cannot know about you.
Any event can be marked wrong — which changes the number, not just the list.

Your compass

Three to five values you choose from seven — respect, honesty, responsibility, care, self-control, fairness, reliability.
Movement towards them, drawn both from your speech and from the acts you note down yourself.
A diary of things you did: kept a promise, apologised, snapped at someone, repaired the damage.
Three questions at the end of the day, when you want them.
No overall morality score — not now, not later.

Your progress

Programmes of 7 to 30 days with one aim and one number, judged by the measurements rather than by you.
A run of days you actually held the level — and shields that cover a slip, up to a point.
Levels earned by days: Watching, Control, Calm speech.
A weekly report that says plainly when there is not enough to compare.
An achievement you can share. The index itself you cannot — it is not a thing to post.

Yours alone

One hundred self-check tests: 25 statements each, five facets scored apart, roughly four minutes.
Family access — six places for a year that share the subscription and nothing else.
Support that answers inside the app, with no email address needed.
Export of your own statistics, and a way to carry everything to a new phone.
A quiet buzz on your watch after a rough moment, and a daily reminder at an hour you pick — both silent until you turn them on.

Your speech coach

One habit at a time — not interrupting, a pause instead of “um”, shorter sentences, speaking about yourself.
A short spoken exercise each day, counted live: fillers, pace, the longest pause. It never enters your day’s statistics.
Voice work: your own resting pitch found by humming, how far above it you speak, how long and how steadily you hold a sound.
Conversation balance: your share of talking time, interruptions in both directions, how long your turns run — with no “correct” value anywhere.
A skill counts as learned only when real conversations changed, not when the days ran out.

Just as important

What Kyndsy will not do

Every one of these was a real option at some point. Each was turned down on purpose, and none of them will arrive in a later version.

Score you as a person

It reports what you asked it to watch. It never adds that up into a verdict.

Listen to anyone else

There is no mode for pointing it at another person, and there will not be one.

Keep a recording

No audio and no transcript are saved. Your speech becomes text on the phone for a moment, only to be counted. What stays is the count and which dictionary words matched; of those, only your eight most frequent fillers ever reach our server — and only when you order a month letter or a quarter map.

Ask who you are

No account, no name, no email. Moving to a new phone is a file you make yourself, with your own password.

Reward you for hiding

A silent day is not progress. Putting the phone away neither breaks a run nor extends it.

Flatter you weekly

If the week was worse, the report says so. If there was too little to judge, it says that instead.

Three ways in

You do not have to use all of it

1 Measure

Turn on a session and forget it

Half an hour of ordinary talking is enough for the first honest number. Stop it whenever you like.

2 Reflect

Skip the microphone entirely

The diary, the compass, the tests and the evening questions all work on their own. Set your voice up later, or not at all.

3 Commit

Take one programme at a time

Seven days without rough words. Softer answers for a fortnight. One aim, and a number that decides whether it worked.

Languages

Thirty languages — including the mix

People switch language mid-sentence. Kyndsy follows thirty of them — English, Spanish, Portuguese, German, French, Italian, Dutch, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, Finnish, Polish, Czech, Croatian, Romanian, Hungarian, Greek, Turkish, Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, Hebrew, Arabic, Hindi, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Thai, Chinese, Japanese and Korean — several at once if that is how you speak.

Technology

Which models recognise your speech

Developed using Moonshine AI technology. Recognition runs on your device. For Ukrainian we use a model from Moonshine AI under the Moonshine AI Community License.
