YOODLI VS SPEEKO
The short version: the platform decides it. Yoodli runs in any web browser — a Chromebook, Windows, even Android — while Speeko is Apple-only, on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Yoodli gives you AI roleplay plus a report; Speeko gives real-time coaching and daily warm-ups. Both have a free tier. Below, each dimension side by side, and the free alternative to both.
Full disclosure: this comparison is published by SpeakUp Coach, a free alternative to both tools. We’ve kept the Yoodli-vs-Speeko call itself neutral — the pricing is sourced and dated, and we say where each one wins.
TL;DR
Choose Yoodli if you want AI roleplay and access from any browser — a Chromebook, Windows, or Android all work. Choose Speeko if you own Apple hardware and want real-time coaching plus daily warm-ups. Both start free. If what you want is free with nothing tied to a platform, SpeakUp Coach (that’s us) runs in any browser and starts without an account — it just doesn’t do roleplay or a daily-exercise library.

The neutral call
The free third option (and yes, it’s us)
Plenty of people comparing Yoodli and Speeko aren’t actually deciding between AI roleplay and a daily-exercise app — they just want to rehearse a specific talk and hear what’s wrong, without paying and without needing a particular device. That’s what SpeakUp Coach does: record yourself in the browser and get a score plus written, sentence-level coaching on pace, filler words, pauses, pitch, and volume — free, English or Spanish, with no paid tier and no card. Record without an account first; a free account (email and password) keeps you going.
Where it does not compete: it has no AI roleplay like Yoodli, and no real-time-while-you-talk daily-exercise library like Speeko. If those are what you want, pick accordingly. If “free and simple” is the real requirement — on any device — start here.
Practice Free — No Credit CardFAQ
Neither wins outright; they split on platform. Choose Yoodli for interactive AI roleplay and access from any browser, including a Chromebook or Android phone. Choose Speeko for real-time guidance while you talk plus daily warm-ups — but only if you own Apple hardware, since it runs solely on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
Yoodli is cheaper on paid plans. Its free Starter tier is permanent (capped at 5 sessions) and paid Pro is about $8/month billed annually. Speeko also has a useful free tier, but its Pro runs $29.99/month, $8.33/month billed annually ($99.96/year), or $299.99 lifetime. Both let you start free; Yoodli costs less to upgrade.
No — Speeko is Apple-only. It runs on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, with no web app and no Android version, so a Chromebook or an Android phone cannot run it at all. Yoodli, by contrast, runs in any web browser, which includes a school Chromebook, a Windows PC, or an Android device.
Yes, though the free tiers differ. Yoodli’s free Starter plan is permanent but capped at 5 sessions for the life of the account. Speeko’s main features are free with no account required (basic insights), with advanced features behind Pro. So it is capped sessions on Yoodli versus capped features, Apple-only, on Speeko.
Yes — SpeakUp Coach, which publishes this comparison, is free with no paid tier and no card, and it starts without an account — a free account (email and password) keeps you practicing. It runs in any browser and coaches speech delivery in English or Spanish. It does not do Yoodli’s AI roleplay or Speeko’s real-time daily exercises, but for rehearsing a specific talk for free, it is the option to know about.
Platform usually decides it. Speeko needs Apple hardware — an iPhone, iPad, or Mac — which many students on school Chromebooks do not have. Yoodli runs in any browser and keeps a permanent free tier, and SpeakUp Coach runs in any browser free, with no paid tier — you can record without an account before making a free one (email and password). On a Chromebook, Speeko simply is not an option.
No download. No app store, and no Apple hardware required. Start without an account, then a free account (email and password). Record a 30-second speech in your browser and get your feedback in seconds — free, in English or Spanish.
