Give the talk your research deserves.
A twenty-minute slot and a room of specialists. The talk is judged on clarity and timing as much as on the findings.
Strong papers, overrun talks.
Academic talks fail in predictable ways: too many slides, a rushed conclusion, and a discussant question that exposes an unrehearsed answer.
- The session chair signals time before you reach your results.
- Dense slides pull you into reading instead of speaking.
- A hostile question in Q&A gets a long, defensive answer.
The hall, the clock, the questions.
Kleig reproduces a conference hall and holds you to your slot. Q&A drills put sceptical follow-ups to you, built from the claims you just made.

Tighten it
Timing match, pace and structure scores, with the section that needs cutting.
Exposure-based practice, rehearsing in conditions that resemble the feared situation, is an established approach in the clinical treatment of public-speaking anxiety, including studies using virtual audiences. Kleig applies the same principle to preparation: you meet the room before the day you meet it.
See, for example, Anderson et al., “Virtual reality exposure therapy for social anxiety disorder,” Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 2013.
Your recordings are used only to prepare you, stored encrypted, and deletable from Settings at any time. How we handle your data
Does it evaluate my findings?+
No. Kleig evaluates presentation technique only, never the accuracy of your claims.
Can I rehearse in a language other than English?+
You choose the language you will present in during setup, and feedback is written in that language.
What happens to my recordings?+
They are used only to prepare you and stored encrypted. From Settings you can delete your profile, rehearsals, feedback and plans at any time.
Is there a free trial?+
No. Kleig is paid-only, so the plans and what they include are stated plainly on the pricing page before you commit.
