Most people spend years avoiding conversations, shrinking in rooms, and replaying what they should've said. The issue isn't who you are. Confidence is a skill, and skills need practice.
That's exactly what Convo is built for
How it works.
Real confidence.
Watch your confidence
become a number
that climbs.
The Convo Index is a 0–1,000 score that breaks every session into five dimensions: Recovery, Composure, Structure, Pace, and Voice. After each conversation, you see exactly where you're strong and exactly where to push next.

63 scenarios across 6 categories cover the conversations that actually make you anxious: small talk, awkward moments, relationship stuff, and everything in between. Pick one, talk it through, and do it again until it feels natural.
Real people.
Real progress.
Cured my social anxiety
"I used to freeze up before every phone call. After 3 weeks of daily warmups, I just... do it now. The real-time feedback on my pacing was a game changer."

Better than therapy
"I've tried therapy, journaling, meditation apps. Convo is the first thing that actually made me practice talking out loud. Index went from 340 to 680."

Changed how I start my day
"The daily warmup sounds small but it genuinely changed my mornings. I show up to work feeling like myself. 34-day streak and counting."

I actually did it
"Asking someone out was literally my biggest fear. I practiced the scenario maybe 10 times in the app. Then I just did it in real life. It worked."

Best $8 I've ever spent
"I made a friend at a party last weekend. That genuinely never happens to me. Practiced 'joining a group conversation' probably 20 times first."

Questions

Most apps make you record yourself and wait for feedback. Convo uses OpenAI's Realtime API to hold a live, back-and-forth voice conversation. The AI responds while you're speaking, asks follow-ups, and pushes back. It's the difference between rehearsing and actually practicing.
For the behavioral side (freezing up, losing your train of thought, avoiding conversations you dread): yes. A 2023 study in JMIR Mental Health found AI-driven exposure exercises reduced social anxiety symptoms significantly with at least three sessions per week. AI is practice, not therapy, but for most people that's exactly the gap.
Self-assessment after a hard conversation is unreliable. Anxiety makes you feel like you did worse than you did. Convo tracks a Confidence Index across every session so you can see the trend over 30 days, not just how you felt in the moment.
Most apps have you record a monologue and score your delivery — useful for articulation, not for anxiety. Convo puts you in a real conversation with pushback, follow-ups, and uncertainty, because that's what actually causes anxiety. It also scores anxiety-specific dimensions like Recovery (did you push through the stumble?) that solo-recording apps can't measure.
Job interviews, difficult conversations at work, phone calls to strangers, first meetings, salary negotiations, and more. Scenarios are designed around the situations that actually trigger conversation anxiety, not generic presentation exercises.
Research on exposure therapy suggests 3–5 sessions per week. Convo's Daily Warmup is 2–4 minutes; conversation sessions run 5–10 minutes. Most users see their Confidence Index start climbing within two weeks.
Most apps in this space focus on mindfulness or journaling. They help you think about anxiety, not practice through it. Convo is the only iOS app built specifically around live voice conversation practice using AI. If your anxiety shows up in actual conversations and not just in your head, Convo is built for that gap.

Practice smarter.
The Best Apps for Social Anxiety in 2026
Social anxiety disorder affects an estimated 12.1% of U.S. adults at some point in their lives, making it the most common anxiety disorder after specific phobias. The apps claiming to help have multiplied just as fast — but most were built for presentation polish, not for the specific experience of dreading a conversation.
ReadHow to Practice Conversations When You Have Social Anxiety
The advice people with social anxiety hear most often is some version of "just put yourself out there." It's not wrong, exactly, but it's incomplete in ways that matter. Not all exposure is therapeutic — and the difference determines whether you make progress or entrench the anxiety further.
