Out loud. Against an opponent who fights back. While a coach on your phone grades how you actually sound — before you walk into the room.
You lose because your voice shakes and you fill the silence. Dry Run fixes the part no book can: your delivery under pressure.
Pick the room — raise ask, offer counter, freelance rate. An AI recruiter, manager, or client flinches, deflects, and stonewalls exactly like the real one. Difficulty 1 to 5.
On-device, live: your anchor, your hedge words, your pace, and the 3-second silence after your ask. It flags the one leak costing you the most — as you speak.
Not twelve techniques — one swap per round. Cut your hedge rate from 9% to 2% in six two-minute reps, until the strong line is the automatic one.
Amateurs make a clean ask and then talk themselves back down. Dry Run is the only coach that times the pause after your number — on-device, from your live mic — and rewards you with a haptic tap when you hold it. That single habit is worth more than every tactic in every book.
Read it, rehearse it, or pin it to the wall. Same scripts, three storefronts.
No. The speech analysis runs entirely on your device using Apple's on-device speech engine. Your audio, your numbers, and your saved sessions stay on your phone (Face ID-gated). When the opponent needs to reply, only your words go over the network — with every number stripped out first. Most competitors score your audio in the cloud. We don't.
ChatGPT will happily write you a script. It can't hear you deliver it. Dry Run's whole job is the delivery: measuring your hedges, your pace, and the silence after your ask from your live microphone, and handing you one fix at a time until the strong line is automatic.
You don't have to. Grab the $29.99 Offer Season Pass — 90 days of everything, one payment, prep for your one negotiation, done. The subscription is for people negotiating raises, offers, and freelance rates on the regular.
It's built to be able to beat you. Stonewaller mode deflects, guilt-trips, and never moves first — and if you're already good, it escalates the difficulty automatically. A rehearsal you always win teaches nothing.
No — it's rehearsal. Dry Run helps you practice how you communicate. It doesn't advise on your specific offer or contract.
