Sound familiar?
Rehearsing alone leaves you guessing.
- The first real run-through happens in front of the club, and the timer light surprises you.
- The Ah-Counter report tells you how many fillers you used, after the speech is over.
- Evaluations are generous and brief, and you would like a second opinion before the meeting.
- Pathways projects have different time windows, and it is hard to know if your draft fits.
How Stage Coach helps
Specific notes you can act on tonight.
Your exact time
The report shows how long your run-through took and your pace in words a minute across the speech, so you can trim or slow down to land inside your time window.
A written evaluation
Wins, habits to watch, and fixes, each pinned to the second it happened, plus grades for your opening and closing and a rewrite of your weakest paragraph.
Drills for the rough spots
Short 90-second drills aimed at the sections that need another pass, each with a scored retake so you can see the improvement.
A practice plan
Three sessions between now and the day.
- 1
A week out
Record a full run-through. Read the report and fix the structure first: opening, transitions, and close.
- 2
Three days out
Run the drills for the two weakest sections. Record the full speech again and compare the filler count and time.
- 3
The night before
One last run-through at your target pace. Stop there and get some sleep.

FAQ
Questions, answered
Does it replace my club evaluator?
Stage Coach is a rehearsal tool you use before the meeting. Your evaluator sees you live, in the room, and reads the audience; Stage Coach gives you repetitions and precise numbers between meetings. Many members use both.
Will it count my filler words?
Yes. It counts fillers by type across the whole speech, shows fillers a minute, and marks each one on the timeline so you can find it in your recording.
Can I practice an Ice Breaker?
Yes. The free trial session records up to 5 minutes, which covers an Ice Breaker. Full sessions record up to 20 minutes.
Is Stage Coach part of Toastmasters?
No. Stage Coach is an independent product from Worth the Pitch and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Toastmasters International.
