What is Verble?
Verble is an AI speech-writing assistant designed to help users master verbal persuasion and storytelling. It serves as both a professional speechwriter and public speaking coach, guiding users through every step of the speech-writing process from initial ideas to final delivery.
The tool works by engaging users in a guided chat where the AI asks targeted questions to gather thoughts, understand the audience, and refine the message. After this conversation, Verble transforms collected input into a clear, organized draft, eliminating blank-page panic. Users can then edit and personalize the draft with smart editing features that incorporate techniques from renowned speakers.
Verble is built for specific audiences and moments: pastors preparing sermons and devotionals, couples and wedding guests creating heartfelt speeches, vows, and toasts, and professionals delivering keynotes, presentations, pitches, and team talks. Each app is shaped around what that exact moment needs, avoiding one-size-fits-all approaches.
Key features include personalized speech drafting through guided conversation, expert smart editing with proven speaking techniques, a Practice Center with teleprompter-style rehearsal support, pitch-to-slides conversion that turns finished talks into ready-to-present slides, and draft upload functionality that sharpens flow, tone, and clarity. The interface is intuitive with a clean layout for seamless navigation.
Verble is available as a web app with an upcoming App Store version for iOS. It serves over 65,000 speakers, hosts, and leaders. The tool is based in the Netherlands, founded by public speaking coach Devin van den Berg (three-time Dutch National Debate Champion) and entrepreneur Victor Straatman, who met at Web Summit Lisbon in 2022.
