1. The Right Hardware

You don't need a professional studio. A simple smartphone headset is often better than a built-in laptop microphone because it sits closer to your mouth and captures less room echo.

2. Control the Environment

Find a room with lots of textiles (curtains, carpets, sofas). These absorb sound. Avoid large, empty rooms with bare walls, as they create an echo.

3. Eliminate Distractions

• Mute notifications on your devices.
• Close windows to avoid street noise.
• Inform roommates or family that you need 20 minutes of silence.

Pro Tip: Take a deep breath before starting. The AI also analyzes your confidence – a calm voice sounds more competent.
