What it is

What Mimic does

Records you against a native reference and makes the difference visible — pitch contour, rhythm, delivery and articulation shown as data you can compare, rather than a single score with no explanation.

A pronunciation score of 72% tells you nothing actionable. Mimic renders pitch, rhythm, delivery and articulation as visible traces, so you can see that your intonation falls where the reference rises.

No account, no analytics SDK, and no cloud scoring at runtime — the comparison happens on the device holding the recording.

How it does its job

Visible pitch and rhythm

Contours rendered side by side, so the gap is legible rather than numeric.

Articulation feedback

Where the sound diverges, not merely that it did.

Private by construction

No account, no analytics SDK, no runtime cloud scoring.

What it doesn't do

It shows you the difference. Closing it is practice, and that part is still work.

Native, local-first, and yours

Mimic is a native Mac app distributed as a complete, fully activated download. No subscription, no account, no locked features, no tracking.
