[Practise out loud on Speakeroo](https://speakeroo.app/practice) ## Connect it to your AI client ### Claude Desktop claude_desktop_config.json ``` { "mcpServers": { "speakeroo": { "args": [ "-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.speakeroo.app/mcp" ], "command": "npx" } } } ``` Claude Desktop's config file starts local servers, so mcp-remote bridges it to the remote endpoint. You can also skip the file: open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector and paste https://mcp.speakeroo.app/mcp. ### Claude Code Terminal ``` claude mcp add --transport http speakeroo https://mcp.speakeroo.app/mcp ``` ### Cursor ~/.cursor/mcp.json [Add to Cursor](https://cursor.com/en/install-mcp?config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL21jcC5zcGVha2Vyb28uYXBwL21jcCJ9&name=speakeroo) ``` { "mcpServers": { "speakeroo": { "url": "https://mcp.speakeroo.app/mcp" } } } ``` ### VS Code .vscode/mcp.json [Install in VS Code](https://insiders.vscode.dev/redirect/mcp/install?config=%7B%22type%22%3A%22http%22%2C%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fmcp.speakeroo.app%2Fmcp%22%7D&name=speakeroo) [Install in VS Code Insiders](https://insiders.vscode.dev/redirect/mcp/install?config=%7B%22type%22%3A%22http%22%2C%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fmcp.speakeroo.app%2Fmcp%22%7D&name=speakeroo&quality=insiders) ``` { "servers": { "speakeroo": { "type": "http", "url": "https://mcp.speakeroo.app/mcp" } } } ``` ### LM Studio mcp.json [Add to LM Studio](lmstudio://add_mcp?config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL21jcC5zcGVha2Vyb28uYXBwL21jcCJ9&name=speakeroo) ``` { "mcpServers": { "speakeroo": { "url": "https://mcp.speakeroo.app/mcp" } } } ``` ### Codex Terminal ``` codex mcp add speakeroo --url https://mcp.speakeroo.app/mcp ``` Or add it to ~/.codex/config.toml as [mcp_servers.speakeroo] with url = "https://mcp.speakeroo.app/mcp". ### Other MCP clients Any MCP client ``` { "mcpServers": { "speakeroo": { "url": "https://mcp.speakeroo.app/mcp" } } } ``` Most clients take the endpoint https://mcp.speakeroo.app/mcp with the Streamable HTTP transport, or this mcpServers entry in their config file. No API key or headers are needed. A client that only starts local servers can bridge to it with npx -y mcp-remote https://mcp.speakeroo.app/mcp. ## Analysis tools ### analyze_transcript Send 30 to 1,500 words you plan to say.

Yes. Every tool is free with no account: 5 text analyses and 1 spoken analysis a day per network, plus the reference tools. Limits reset at 00:00 UTC. ### Do I need an API key? No. The server at https://mcp.speakeroo.app/mcp is anonymous over Streamable HTTP, so you add the URL to your client and call the tools. ### What's the difference between analyze_transcript and analyze_speech? analyze_transcript reads text, so it judges your words, structure, grammar and vocabulary. analyze_speech listens to a recording, so it adds what only audio shows: words per minute, pauses, filler rate, pitch, vocal expression and pronunciation. ### Is my audio stored? No. Audio is deleted once it has been analysed, and neither text nor audio is stored after the response. Your IP address is only kept as a salted, daily-rotating hash for limits, deleted after two days. ### What are the limits? 5 text analyses a day shared by analyze_transcript and refine_transcript (at most 3 a minute), 1 spoken analysis a day, and 60 reference calls a minute. Limits are per network and reset at 00:00 UTC. A spoken analysis that fails on our side does not count, up to 3 tries a day. ### Which AI clients does it work with? Any MCP client that speaks Streamable HTTP, including Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. Claude Desktop connects through mcp-remote or a custom connector. ## Keep going [Filler words](https://speakeroo.app/filler-words) [Speaking rubric](https://speakeroo.app/speaking-rubric) [Impromptu speech topics](https://speakeroo.app/impromptu-speech-topics) [How to pronounce](https://speakeroo.app/how-to-pronounce) [Words per minute speaking](https://speakeroo.app/words-per-minute-speaking) [AI speaking coach](https://speakeroo.app/ai-speaking-coach) ## Hear how it sounds out loud Every practice mode is free and starts in your browser.
