Real session · unscripted patient

Mr Carter is improvising from a case card — nobody wrote his lines. Press play and the transcript follows.

What you get

Everything you need to actually pass.

Real-time AI conversation, objective pronunciation scoring, 9-criteria Speaking feedback, and full OET Writing letter marking — all grounded in the official OET rubric, for the 12 professions that use OET for registration.

A patient who actually responds

A live 5-minute role-play with an AI patient that listens, pauses, and replies to what you actually said — no scripts, no canned answers, no awkward turn-taking.

Every OET criterion, scored

Intelligibility, fluency, appropriateness, grammar, vocabulary, empathy, patient perspective, clinical accuracy, organisation — plus a 0–500 overall and an A–E grade. The full official rubric, automated.

Pronunciation, word-by-word

Industry-grade pronunciation analysis scores every syllable. We surface the exact words that tripped you up so you drill the right things — not your whole accent.

Cue detection per task

Every role-card has 4–5 tasks. We verify each one against your transcript — hit, partial, miss — with the exact quote from your role-play as evidence.

Personalised case picks

A weighted recommender targets your two weakest criteria, suggests topics you haven't tried, and adjusts difficulty as your scores climb. No grinding through the same case twice.

Every Writing letter, marked

OET Writing is here too. Write a referral letter against a profession-specific case, then get it scored on all six official criteria — purpose, content, conciseness, genre, organisation, language — with inline annotations on the exact phrases that cost you marks. Free and unmetered during the beta.

Privacy by default

Your recordings, transcripts, and scores stay on infrastructure we control. Export everything in one tap; delete your account and your data is gone — no soft-delete, no archive.

How it works

One 5-minute role-play, three layers of feedback.

The Speaking flow below ends in a full score breakdown in about a minute. OET Writing follows the same pick → practise → scored loop — a timed letter under exam conditions, marked on the six official Writing criteria.

03
Get scored
In about a minute, you see your full OET score, every criterion, cue hit/miss per task, mispronounced word list, and the next case to practice.

Hear a whole one

A complete role-play, start to finish

Four minutes thirty-six of a doctor and a reluctant 72-year-old, recorded end to end. The doctor’s turns were written; the patient was not — he is the AI patient from the app, improvising from a case card, which is why he raises his friend Arthur unprompted.

The page carries the audio, the full transcript, the candidate card it came from, and what each of the nine criteria is listening for.

Common questions

Everything you wanted to ask before signing up.

Is OET Live an official OET product?

No. OET Live is an independent AI Speaking coach built for migrating healthcare professionals. The Occupational English Test (OET) is a registered trademark of Cambridge Boxhill Language Assessment. We're not affiliated with or endorsed by OET — we just deeply respect the official rubric and built our scoring around it.

Is OET Live available now?

Yes. OET Live is on the App Store for iPhone (iOS 16+), and since October 2026 it also runs in your browser at oetlive.com/app — on Windows, Mac, Android or a Chromebook, with the same account. There is no Android app; on Android, use the browser.

How does the AI scoring compare to a real OET examiner?

Every role-play is scored on the full 9 OET Speaking criteria — intelligibility, fluency, appropriateness of language, resources of grammar and expression, plus the five clinical communication criteria. We use modern reasoning models to evaluate transcripts against the public OET rubric and pair that with industry-grade pronunciation analysis for syllable-level accuracy. The scores correlate strongly with examiner ratings on calibration sets, but they're a study tool — not a substitute for the live exam.

Does OET Live cover OET Writing as well as Speaking?

Yes. Alongside the AI-patient Speaking practice, OET Live includes the OET Writing sub-test. You get a timed letter-writing mode that mirrors exam conditions and an untimed practice mode with hints and model answers, a bank of profession-specific referral tasks, and automatic marking on all six official Writing criteria — purpose, content, conciseness and clarity, genre and style, organisation and layout, and language — with inline annotations and band-5 and band-7 sample answers. Writing is free and unmetered during the current beta.

Which healthcare professions are supported?

All 12 OET professions are in the case bank: Medicine, Nursing, Dentistry, Dietetics, Occupational Therapy, Optometry, Pharmacy, Physiotherapy, Podiatry, Radiography, Speech Pathology, and Veterinary Science. Cases are generated against profession-specific topic schemas and audited against a 9-criteria rubric.

What exactly is free?

Two different things. Install or sign up: 1 fully-scored 5-minute exam role-play plus 10 minutes of Coach mode, free forever, no card. Then, if you want more: a 3-day free trial of Essential monthly, up to 30 practice minutes (about 6 role-plays; card required; cancel before it ends and you are not charged, otherwise it renews at US$39.99/month with Essential's 120 minutes a month). OET Writing is unmetered on every plan, including free, during the current beta. Beyond the trial, subscriptions start at US$39.99/month for Essential and US$69.99/month for Pro. Cancel anytime: on iPhone in Settings › Apple ID › Subscriptions; on the web from the Billing page in your account.

What about privacy?

Your recordings, transcripts, and scores stay on infrastructure we control. We never sell data. You can export everything in one tap, and account deletion removes your recordings, transcripts, and scores in full.

In your browser or on iPhone. Start free.
