The Problem: The “invisible” failure killing startups

Q: What pain point does your customer face?

  • The New Bottleneck: Building product is easier than ever (AI/No-Code), but articulating your vision to buyers and investors has become the new barrier to entry. This is especially true in high-stakes situations. When the pressure is on, old habits (monotone, rambling, and anxiety) take over
  • The “Invisible” Failure: Founders walk out of rejected investor meetings wondering, “Was it my product, or was it how I spoke or what?” They have no feedback loop to correct mistakes.
  • The Opportunity Cost: Brilliant technical minds are losing capital and customers to inferior founders who simply speak better.

Q: How are people currently trying to solve this (and why it fails)?

They try Toastmasters, role-playing apps, YouTube communication coaches, journaling, and practicing in front of the mirror. But these solutions fail in the moments that actually matter: the interactions themselves. None of them diagnose internal habits, emotional patterns, or unconscious communication flaws. None provide objective, real-time behavioral feedback that help you correct your mistakes on the spot

Q: Can you quantify the pain?

Founders lose months of runway from failed pitches, lose 50–90% of potential customers due to unclear communication, and leave millions of dollars & life-changing opportunities on the table in botched interviews. YC partners repeatedly note that most early-stage startups fail not because the product is weak, but because the founder cannot articulate the vision clearly enough


The Solution

Q: One-sentence solution?

Audora is the real-time AI communication coach living on any device (phone, mac, watch, Meta glasses, etc…) that diagnoses your speaking habits, reveals your blind spots, and trains you to become a compelling, articulate communicator in every high-stakes moment.

Q: The benefit?

You stop losing opportunities because of unclear speech. You learn faster than ever. You also get real-time support from your AI coach during interactions. You show up to every meeting as the most articulate version of yourself through mindfulness practices so that people finally understand, believe, and follow you. Unlike competitors who flag “filler words,” Audora flags behavioral patterns (e.g., “You speed up when asked about money”).

Why Now?

  • It’s becoming more and more popular now and easier to become a founder but harder to speak like one for several reasons. The market will continue to expand, especially as immigrants who move to the US or Canada to start their venture. They have all the technical skills to execute on the product, but they don’t have the communication skills to sell the product.
  • A new wave of wearables (e.g. real-time audio and video capture through meta glasses)
  • This is the first moment in history where communication itself can be measured, improved, and optimized through AI in real-time

The Team + Why Me

  • My years of working through my own communication challenges (social anxiety) taught me how insanely hard it is to rewire speech, habits, and behavior in the real world. Now I’m applying those insights to a very different, much higher-stakes beast: founder communication. I understand the psychology, the mechanics of speech, and the brutal reality of investor and customer conversations, and I have the technical and product skills to build the system that finally helps founders communicate at the level their startup deserves
  • Unique blend of psychology + AI + founder context: Audora sits at the intersection of behavioral psychology, speech analysis, and founder communication. My background, mentors, and ongoing work are all concentrated in that overlap
  • Technical founder with scars from the arena: I’m a technical solo founder who has spent the last two years building and shipping in the consumer social space. Those failed experiments are now my unfair advantage: I’ve already learned, painfully and quickly, what doesn’t work in behavior change and social products.
  • Deep obsession with communication as a leverage point: I genuinely believe “the quality of your life is directly related to the quality of your conversations” (Tony Robbins) and the same is true for startups. How people see your product and your business is directly related to your ability to explain it clearly
  • Founder-market fit with my initial niche: I am myself an early-stage founder pitching in high-stakes situations, and I’m surrounded by immigrant and non-native-English founders facing the same challenges. I’m not guessing at this problem, I live inside the target user group.
