About This Tool

Poised is a personal communication coach that runs privately in the background of your Zoom, Teams, or Google Meet calls. It listens to your speech patterns and provides instant, private alerts to help you speak more confidently, reduce filler words, and maintain better eye contact.

  1. 1. Install the Poised desktop app (Mac/Windows).
  2. 2. Join your meeting (Zoom, Teams, Meet).
  3. 3. Poised automatically detects the meeting and starts analyzing.
  4. 4. View the discreet sidebar for real-time tips (e.g., “Slow down”).
  5. 5. Review your post-meeting summary and long-term trends.

Use Cases

Poised is essential for job seekers preparing for interviews, sales professionals wanting to close more deals by sounding confident, and managers who want to run more inclusive and effective team meetings.

Privacy Focus

A critical feature of Poised is that it is completely private to you. Unlike meeting recorders that join the call as a bot, Poised runs locally. Your boss or clients will never know you are using an AI coach unless you tell them.

Metrics Tracked

The AI tracks detailed metrics including: Filler words (um, ah, like), Pace (words per minute), Energy (pitch variation), Talk-to-listen ratio, Eye contact (camera gaze), and potentially offensive language (“hedging” words).

Limitations

Poised is primarily a desktop application and currently works best on Mac and Windows. It requires access to your microphone to analyze audio in real-time. The free version has a limited number of meeting analyses per month.

Personalized Plans

Based on your performance, Poised generates a personalized learning plan. It might challenge you to “reduce filler words by 10%” in your next meeting or “ask more questions” to improve your listening score.
