Helping mandarin learners practice the tones in their own time without the need for a private tutor to correct them. Record yourself speaking in-browser, and get instant feedback: pitch contour and what tone that sounded like. Any feedback welcome!

Quick problem, It seems to have a difficult time with deeper voices. Please fix. I do like it. Is there anything for whole sentences?

Hi, thanks for bringing that to our attention. We will work on it. We would like to work towards giving people feedback on whole sentences. We plan to work on 2-syllable words first.
