About Heard: Who Really Listened
Stop arguing about who really listened. Settle it with a listening score counted from your own conversation. Somebody in your life swears they listen. You are not so sure. Heard ends the debate the fair way: one real conversation, recorded in the open, and a listening report counted on the recording. THE RITUAL Bring something that matters. Share it. Let them listen. Then find out whether they really did (and how they can get better next time!). THE LISTENING SCORE One number, 0 to 100, built only from the software counts: the room the listener gave and the curiosity their questions showed. Under it, the full report, with one thing to try next time. THE OLDEST ARGUMENT, FINALLY CHECKABLE "You never listen to me" has gone unanswered for generations because nobody could check it. Now it is checkable. Score yourself on one conversation, score them on the next, and let the counts speak. Whoever the count favors, now you both know. THREE KINDS OF NUMBERS, SAID PLAINLY Heard tells you which numbers are which. Software counts, like talk share, turns, longest turn, and questions asked, open versus closed, are counted in code the same way every time, and are only as accurate as the transcript. Careful reads, like reflections and their ratios, are made by AI and arrive with their margin said out loud. Judgment reads, like empathy and staying with a hard moment, appear as coaching bands, never as scores, because an honest instrument does not pretend to measure warmth. The measures are adapted from counseling research, and the report says plainly that AI can be wrong. LEARN WHAT WE MEASURE Short lessons teach every measure before you record: what it is, what strong looks like, and one thing to try. A deck of conversation prompts helps you bring something real, from light to deep. TAKE 1 TO TAKE 2 Record again and Heard shows what changed, measure by measure, point by point. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Heard scores a conversation only after you confirm that everyone recorded agreed to it. Audio never leaves this phone. Names are shortened right on the phone before anything is scored, and only that shortened text goes to our server for scoring. Reports belong to the person who was scored and are shared only by their own tap. No leaderboards, no feeds, no comparing you to anyone. REPORT CREDITS Scoring runs on report credits purchased in the app. One credit scores up to 30 minutes of conversation, and two credits score up to an hour. The app shows the cost before you score. Reports you have already run stay on your phone at no extra charge. Bring something that matters. Record the conversation. Find out who really listened.

Version 1.2.0 · Updated October 11, 2026
Each report now scores only the listener you pick. Every rating now rests on what was actually said, never on a guess about how anyone felt. And the report says plainly which numbers are counted by software and which are an AI's read, and that AI can be wrong.
