Private pilot — invite only
Get good on camera. Before it counts.
Reptake is short recorded takes, AI feedback in under a minute, and a small pod of real people telling you what actually landed — before the interview, the panel, or the pitch you don't get to retake.
Invite-only beta. No public feed. No downloads.
Explain a decision you'd defend.
Skip the buildup. Start with the decision, then the reasoning.
Practice privately insteadHow it works
Every rep runs the same four steps.
Record a rep
Open the link, get a prompt, and record 30–120 seconds on your phone. Take the full script, bullet cues, or nothing to lean on — you pick before you hit record, and you can collapse it once you're rolling.
AI feedback in about a minute
Evidence-based notes come back in under 60 seconds: what you actually said, timestamped observations, and a plain read on whether you answered the prompt.
Qualitative bands, always — never a decimal score.
Your pod reviews you, tone-translated
Two or three people from your practice pod watch the take and tell you what it felt like. They just talk — under a minute — and Reptake structures it and delivers it in the tone you asked for. They approve the wording before you ever see it.
See your calibration
Your prediction, your pod's read, and the AI's estimate, side by side. The gap between the three is usually the most useful thing on the screen.
Why it works
Why reps in front of real people?
Because that's what the speaking-improvement literature keeps finding. Reptake's core loop is built on four results — including the honest one about what practice can't do.
Speakers who rehearsed in front of other people performed better in the real moment than speakers who practiced solo — and audiences of four or more beat one to three. That's why Reptake is a pod, not a mirror.
Smith & Frymier, Communication Quarterly, 2006Across 119 recorded speakers, rated quality tracked preparation — and specifically the number of rehearsals in front of an audience, not just time spent preparing.
Menzel & Carrell, Communication Education, 1994Repeated, graded exposure to an audience measurably lowers speaking anxiety — and the most anxious speakers improve the most. Every rep is a dose.
Finn, Sawyer & Behnke's habituation research; replicated in graded VR-exposure studiesThe meta-analysis that deflated “practice makes perfect” found practice explains only part of the difference between people. What it reliably moves is you against you — so that's the only comparison Reptake ever makes.

Tone-translated peer feedback. Self-versus-audience calibration.
Real people, delivered how you can actually hear it
AI can tell you what you said. It can't tell you what it felt like to watch you say it. So every take goes to two or three people in your practice pod. They don't write an essay — they talk for under a minute, the way you'd actually tell a friend what landed. Reptake transcribes it, structures it into what worked, what didn't, and what to try next, then adapts the wording to the delivery style you picked — supportive, balanced, direct, or blunt. The reviewer sees the adapted version and has to approve it before it reaches you. The rating never moves. Only the delivery does.
From a pod reviewer
AI-adjusted · reviewer-approvedYou named the tradeoff in the first ten seconds — that's what made it land.
This is where I lost the thread. Too many qualifiers before you got to the point.
Say the decision first. Save the reasoning for after.
The gap you can't see from inside your own take
Before anyone weighs in, you predict how the take landed on four dimensions — clear, focused, credible, engaging. Then your pod tells you what it actually felt like to watch, with real counts: “3 of 7 found the point clear.” The AI adds its own read from the transcript and timing alone, shown as a qualitative band, never a number next to a person's number. Reptake lines up you, your pod, and the model so the gap between them stops being invisible.

Privacy
Your face isn't the product.
Reptake is built to make practice safe to be honest in. That starts with what happens to the footage.
Video uploads directly to Mux, our video processor, over a link that expires in minutes. Reptake's servers never see or store the raw file.
Every raw take deletes itself 14 days after you submit it. You see the exact date on the take from the moment you post it.
Your ratings, transcripts, feedback, and progress stick around after deletion. What you learned about your delivery stays; the video that captured it doesn't.
Nobody — not your pod, not a facilitator, not Reptake — can download your video through the app. Playback is a signed, expiring link. There is no public URL.
For coaches
Run a paid cohort of eight on Reptake.
Bring your own clients into a private pod. Reptake runs the prompts, the recording, the review assignments, and the reciprocity gate that keeps everyone reviewing each other — you run the coaching.
Completion by round, outstanding reviews, moderation flags, and who's about to go quiet — in one screen, not a spreadsheet.
Posting into the pod requires finishing assigned reviews first. Feedback keeps flowing without you having to chase anyone.
Four practice days a week, visible to every participant. No leaderboard, no points — just a streak that rewards consistency, not perfection.
Questions
Before you ask
Do I need an app?
No. Reptake runs in your phone's browser from a link — nothing to download, nothing to install.
Who sees my videos?
Only the two or three pod members assigned to review that specific take, for as long as it exists. There's no public feed, no follower graph, and no way to browse anyone else's videos.
Why pods instead of just AI?
AI can tell you what you said. It can't tell you what it felt like to watch you say it. Real people can — Reptake just makes sure that feedback is honest, specific, and delivered in a way you can actually use.
What does it cost during the pilot?
The pilot is invite-only, and the terms depend on how you're joining — as an individual or as part of a coach-led cohort. Request an invite and you'll know exactly what's involved before you record a single take.
What happens to my videos?
Raw footage auto-deletes 14 days after you submit it. Your feedback, ratings, and progress stick around — the footage doesn't.
