About this accent

The phonetic identity of Mandarin.

Standard Mandarin (普通话) has four tones plus a neutral tone, retroflex consonants (zh, ch, sh, r) that English speakers struggle with, and a strict CV(N) syllable structure. AnyAccent scores tone accuracy at the sentence, phoneme, and intonation level — not just whether the syllable was correct.

FAQ

Common questions.

Is AnyAccent free to try?

You can sign in with Google and explore the interface free. Practice sessions require a paid plan — every tier has a 7-day refund if it is not for you, cancel anytime from your account.

What is the difference between a language and an accent?

A language (English, Spanish, Portuguese) is the shared spelling and grammar. An accent is the phonetic system. American English and British English are the same language with different sound inventories.

Do I have to pick just one accent?

No. Switch any time on the same account. Your practice history and progress persist across accents — every plan includes every language and every accent.

How accurate is the phoneme scoring?

AnyAccent uses world-class speech AI tuned per locale (not a single English model bent to other languages). Word and phoneme accuracy match published benchmarks for the locale.

What devices does AnyAccent work on?

Any modern browser with a microphone — desktop or mobile. iOS and Android native apps come later; for now the web app runs everywhere.

Will I be charged automatically?

Yes, subscriptions auto-renew at the cycle you pick (monthly or yearly). Cancel anytime from your account settings — you keep access through the end of the paid period.
