Hedy AI
Hedy AI is a conversation coach that listens to your meetings, interviews, classes, and calls in real time. It surfaces suggestions, talking points, and blind spot alerts while the conversation is still happening, so you can stay present instead of scrambling for what to say next.
The tool runs on your device rather than joining calls as a bot. Speech recognition happens locally by default, and you can opt into fully on-device AI processing on supported hardware. Transcripts, summaries, meeting notes, and to-do items are generated automatically after each session.
Hedy targets professionals, students, recruiters, journalists, coaches, and anyone who needs sharper communication in high-stakes conversations. Session modes adapt coaching style for business meetings, job interviews, medical visits, coaching sessions, journalism, negotiations, and lectures.
Founder Julian Pscheid built Hedy after years running a digital product agency and seeing how language barriers and lack of coaching access held people back. The company, Hedy AI LLC, is based in Portland, Oregon. Apps are available for macOS, Windows, iOS, Android, Apple Watch, and web.
