A speaking coach in your Mac's menu bar that reads your pace as you talk — and nudges you the moment you start racing, so you catch it mid-sentence.
A pace signal and a floor-time signal, side by side.
Grey and silent until your mic goes live. Then it wakes up.
Top signal is your pace, bottom is how long you've held the floor. Both green, you're in the sweet spot.
Pace is dropping. Lean in and pick it up.
You're racing. Ease off so they can keep up.
The bottom signal glows coral. Time to pause and let someone in.
"I'd get excited in meetings, my pace would climb, and I'd take over the room — talking so fast I stopped hearing anyone else. I wanted something to quietly catch me in the moment. It didn't exist, so I built it."
Anton Glance, Founder of Locto
The high-stakes talking that fills your week — coaching that shows up in the moment, not in a course you'll never finish.
Land the story at a pace they can actually follow.
Sound like a conversation, not a monologue — and close more of them.
Hold the room and come across in command. The moments that get you noticed.
Catch the ramble before it starts.
Locto is free while it's experimental. I want you to test it, tell me if it helps — and where it could do better.

AI you can keep in the room — there when you glance, gone when you don't.
Reads your pace in real time with on-device speech recognition. Accurate enough to trust, quiet enough to forget.
No streaks, no badges, no notifications. It waits for your glance, never the other way around.
One glance tells you everything. No dashboard to study, no session to start.
Your voice never leaves your Mac. No account, no cloud, nothing stored — ever.
Blue when you're too slow, sage when you're on pace, coral when you're racing. One glance — that's the whole product.
One quiet tile. Free to download. Always yours, fully on your Mac.
No. Everything runs on-device, in real time. Your speech is analyzed for pace and discarded as it goes — nothing is saved, recorded, or sent anywhere.
No. Locto only reads your own microphone. It doesn't capture the other side of a call, and no one else can see or hear it.
No. Locto is free — yours to keep, with free updates across the v1 lifetime. No tokens, no metering, no recurring charge.
Locto uses on-device speech recognition tuned for real conversation and presentation — so the number reflects how you actually sound, not a lab transcript. All of it runs on your Mac.
Yes. It listens to your microphone, so it behaves the same on a video call, a podcast recording, or a solo rehearsal.
No. The speech model is small and built to run quietly in the background on Apple silicon and Intel alike.
Never. No sounds, no notifications, no popups. The widget only appears while your mic is live, and you glance at it on your own terms.
No — anyone who speaks on calls or on stage benefits. We built v1 around founders because pitching, demos, and sales are where pace matters most and there's no time to train for it. If you talk for a living, it works for you.
A Mac on macOS 14 or later — Apple silicon or Intel — and microphone permission. That's the whole list.
v1 supports the system language you pick at first launch, up to two languages. More are planned.
Just delete it — Locto is free, so there's nothing to cancel and nothing to refund. If it didn't work for you, we'd genuinely like to hear why: support@locto.io.
