Why transcribing presentation practice isn’t enough
Recording yourself is the first step to a great grade, but simply having a text version of your speech doesn't fix your delivery or help you master the material. When you transcribe presentation practice, you often end up with a messy wall of text filled with filler words, circular logic, and pacing issues that are hard to analyze manually.
Transcripts don't highlight where your arguments are weak or repetitive.
It is difficult to track if you are hitting all the required rubric points just by reading text.
A raw script doesn't help you prepare for the dreaded Q&A session at the end of your talk.
Quick win: Use the transcription to identify your "filler word" patterns (like 'um' or 'like') so you can consciously cut them in your next take.
Common mistake: Reading your transcript word-for-word during the real presentation instead of using it to build a mental map of your key points.
What you get in Duetoday
Duetoday is a retention-first AI learning workspace. It turns your practice sessions into a comprehensive study system, not just a transcript, so you can walk into your room with total confidence.
Searchable transcript
Instantly find specific parts of your speech. If you know you stumbled on the "Methodology" section, just search for that keyword and jump straight to that moment in the text.
Best for: Refining specific sections of a long speech.
Example: Searching for "Conclusion" to ensure your ending sounds punchy and authoritative.
Smart summary
Duetoday condenses your practice run into high-level themes. This helps you see the "big picture" of your presentation to ensure your narrative flow makes sense to an audience.
Best for: Checking the logical structure of your talk.
Example: Realizing your intro is 4 minutes long while your main data only gets 2 minutes.
Study guide
Turn your verbal thoughts into a structured guide. Duetoday organizes your presentation points into a clean document you can use as a reference sheet during rehearsals.
Best for: Building a "safety net" document for your prep.
Example: Converting a 10-minute ramble into a neat 5-point outline.
Flashcards (spaced repetition)
Master your talking points without memorizing a script. Duetoday generates flashcards from your transcript to help you recall key facts and transitions naturally.
Best for: Moving away from reading off slides.
Example: Flashcards that prompt you on the "Three main benefits" of your topic.
Practice quiz (active recall)
The best presenters know their topic inside out. Our AI generates quizzes based on your practice session to test your deep understanding of the subject matter.
Best for: Preparing for unexpected audience questions.
Example: A quiz asking "Why is the 2024 data more relevant than the 2020 data?"
Key questions / action items
Get a list of potential Q&A questions and task lists to improve your next rehearsal. It’s like having a coach telling you exactly what to fix before the big day.
Best for: Polishing the final version of your presentation.
Example: An action item to "Add a transition between slide 4 and 5."
Quick win: Review the 'Key Questions' list right before bed to let your brain process the answers overnight.
Common mistake: Ignoring the practice quiz because you think you 'already know' what you said; active recall is what prevents freezing up.
How it works
Upload your recording: Simply drag and drop your audio or video file of your presentation practice into the Duetoday dashboard.
AI Processing: Duetoday transcribes the audio and instantly generates a structured summary, notes, and study materials based on your speech.
Review and Practice: Use the generated flashcards and quizzes to test your knowledge and refine your delivery until you are stage-ready.
Checklist before you upload
Ensure the audio is clear and audible.
Check that you have covered all main points in the recording.
Identify any specific areas where you felt you struggled while speaking.
Have your rubric or requirements nearby to compare against the output.
Quick win: Record yourself on your phone voice memo app and upload it directly—simple yet effective.
Common mistake: Uploading a recording with loud background music which can interfere with the transcription accuracy.

Quick win: Share the generated summary with a friend to see if they understand your topic without hearing the speech.
