Accent Guesser is an online tool for anyone curious about how their English sounds to a machine. Each day the site publishes a single fixed passage, so every visitor reads exactly the same words and every result is comparable. The passage is built around one target sound, such as the vowel in "day" or the "th" in "think", and the words carrying that sound are highlighted while you read. You record one take of up to 45 seconds and the analysis runs directly in the browser.
Under the hood, the system works from the audio rather than the spelling. It examines vowel quality, whether you pronounce the r after vowels, how consonants such as t and th come out, where stress falls and how your pitch moves at the end of a phrase. The output lists two to five candidate accents ranked by confidence, and it is normal to land between two of them — a Londoner who moved to Sydney, for example, may show traits of both. Every finding is time-stamped so you can replay the exact moment that tipped the guess, and if your English carries traits of another first language the tool names up to five sounds to practise.
The site compares 18 regional English accents and 14 first-language-influenced varieties, for a total of 32 accents. A sound library lets you listen to minimal pairs and see where each sound is articulated. The tool is free, requires no account, and does not store your recording on its servers — the replay lives only in your browser tab.
