PowerPoint Speaker Coach is an intelligent feature built into Microsoft PowerPoint that helps users improve their public speaking and presentation skills. It uses artificial intelligence (AI) to listen to your presentation and provide real-time feedback on how you communicate.
Whether you’re a teacher, student, corporate trainer, or professional presenter, Speaker Coach acts like a virtual speaking assistant, helping you identify habits that might distract your audience and offering suggestions to improve clarity, confidence, and engagement.
It can be used during rehearsal mode or live presentations in PowerPoint for the web and desktop versions. After your session, you also receive a Rehearsal Report that highlights your strengths and areas to work on.
