What it does

​I’m the founder of SpeechMinutes. I built this because I was tired of 'free' tools that were either slow, covered in ads, or forced me to sign up just to calculate a 2-minute script. ​Why we are different: ​Smart Logic: Auto-detects English & Hindi to adjust WPM (Words Per Minute) accurately. ​Built-in Teleprompter: Live scrolling with adjustable speeds and target duration alerts (Red/Green indicators). ​Privacy First: Everything stays in your LocalStorage. We don't want your data.

Free words to minutes converter. Paste any script to instantly convert words to minutes of speaking time. Speech calculator with teleprompter — no sign-up needed.

Paste any script to convert words to minutes of speaking time instantly. Get exact reading duration, word count, and practice with the built-in teleprompter — 100% free, no sign-up needed. Three simple steps to know exactly how long your speech will take. Copy from Word, Google Docs, or any editor. Hindi and English both supported with auto-detection. Choose Slow, Normal, or Fast based on your natural speaking pace. Hindi scripts auto-adjust to 105 WPM. Hit Start Teleprompter to practice with auto-scrolling text synced to your exact speaking time. How many words fit into common speech durations at each speed. Whether you need a script reading time calculator for your podcast , a video…from speechminutes.com

    Hi HN, I built a small, free tool that estimates how long a speech will take based on text length and speaking speed (WPM). You can paste your script or enter a word count, adjust the speaking pace, and instantly see an estimated duration. I originally made it for preparing presentations and talks where timing matters, but it also works well for narrations, lectures, or video scripts. The site is intentionally lightweight (no signup, no tracking beyond basic analytics) and works entirely in the browser. I’d love any feedback on usability, accuracy assumptions, or features you’d expect in a…

    I built a teleprompter that scrolls based on your voice instead of a timer. Paste a script, press record, and it highlights the current word as you speak. If you pause it waits; if you skip lines it finds its place again. Everything runs entirely in the browser — speech recognition (Moonshine ONNX), VAD, and fuzzy script matching. Demo: https://larsbaunwall.github.io/promptme-ai Most of the project was initially built using Perplexity Computer, which made for an interesting agentic coding workflow. Curious what people think about the script alignment approach.

  • Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
