Who it's for

  • Job candidates preparing for video interviews who want prompts drawn from their resume and the role's job posting.
  • Professionals handling client meetings who want response suggestions grounded in proposals, pricing, notes, or other project materials.
  • Mac users following meetings or videos in another language who want live transcription and sentence-by-sentence translation.

Not the right fit if…

  • People using Intel Macs, Windows, or Linux: the page says these platforms are not supported.
  • Mac users on macOS versions earlier than 26 or Macs without Apple silicon: the stated requirement is an Apple silicon Mac (M1 or later) running macOS 26 or later.

How it fits your workflow

For an interview, add a resume PDF and job posting to a profile, then set the interview and answer languages. SpeechShield transcribes the question and displays talking points when the other person pauses; users can also request a suggestion immediately.

For a meeting, add the other company, attendees, goal, agenda, and relevant documents or notes to a context. SpeechShield suggests responses based on those materials and tags meeting lines with their source titles.

Use the app in calls such as Zoom, Meet, or Teams without adding a bot. Review questions and suggestions in session history, optionally replay a recording, or open the session on a phone browser on the same Wi-Fi.

Key features

Interview Copilot
Transcribes interview questions and suggests talking points from a resume and job posting saved for that company and role. Suggestions appear when the other person pauses, or users can request one immediately with ⌘↩︎.
Meeting Copilot
Uses context added for a client or project, including proposals, price lists, and notes, to suggest responses. The page says numbers and commitments come from the supplied materials and each line is tagged with its source title.
Live translation
Transcribes meetings and videos and displays a translation beneath each sentence as it finishes. The page lists support for 13 languages and says translation runs on the Mac for free.
Session history and review
Keeps questions, suggestions, and notes in order. If recording is enabled, users can replay from a point in the session.
Phone viewer
Opens the same session in a phone browser after scanning a QR code while the phone and Mac are on the same Wi-Fi. With remote control allowed on the Mac, the phone can listen, request an answer, and take screenshots.
Choice of AI providers and models
Lets users choose a provider or model separately for transcription, answers, and translation. The page names Claude Code, Codex, an OpenAI key, Ollama, Soniox, and the Mac.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use it for free?

Yes. The Free plan includes a one-time trial of SpeechShield-hosted AI with 60 minutes and 50 answers, with no card required. Connecting your own API key or the Claude or Codex CLI allows use without a time limit.

What are the suggestions based on?

Interview suggestions use the resume and job posting saved in a profile for each company and role. Meeting suggestions use proposals, price lists, notes, and other materials added to the context for each client or project.

Can I read suggestions in my own language during an English interview?

Yes. The interview language and answer language can be set separately, so questions can be transcribed in English while talking points are shown in another chosen language.

Can I use it to practice?

Yes. The page says users can run a mock interview with a friend over video, or play an interview practice video or an AI voice chat. Finished sessions stay in history with questions and suggestions.

Will others see it when I share my screen?

The page says the overlay is left out of screen sharing whether the user shares the entire display or a single window. It also describes a Shareable Screen option in Settings → Overlay.

Which devices does it work on?

SpeechShield requires an Apple silicon Mac (M1 or later) running macOS 26 or later. Intel Macs, Windows, and Linux are not supported. Phones connect through iOS Safari or Android Chrome on the same Wi-Fi.

Where is my data stored?

The page says profiles, meeting materials, and session history are encrypted on the Mac. Audio and answer requests go only to the AI the user chooses; SpeechShield's servers keep account, billing, and usage information.
