Why Your Podcast Sounds Rambling
The rambling problem: Why your solo videos run too long
Without someone to guide the conversation, you naturally over-explain. You add tangents. You circle back to points you already made.
There's no one to signal 'got it' or 'tell me more about that.' So you keep talking, unsure if you've made your point clearly.
The absence of conversational structure means your content becomes a stream of consciousness instead of a focused discussion.
Why existing solutions don't solve this
Notes don't talk back
Bullet points and outlines give you structure, but they don't create conversational flow. You still end up talking at the camera.
Teleprompters flatten delivery
Reading from a script makes you sound robotic. It removes the natural pauses, reactions, and follow-up thinking that make content engaging.
'Just practice' doesn't solve structure
Recording yourself multiple times without feedback doesn't improve the underlying problem: there's no one to guide the conversation.
The missing mechanism: Conversation creates clarity
Conversation isn't just about exchanging words—it's a cognitive feedback loop. When someone asks a follow-up question, your brain refines the idea in real-time.
This is why interviews feel more natural than monologues. The other person's questions give your thoughts shape and direction.
Without this mechanism, you're left guessing what's interesting, what needs more detail, and when to move on.
Olyetta: An AI interviewer that creates conversational structure
Olyetta is designed to solve the core problem: you need someone to talk with, not just talk at.
It asks follow-up questions, responds to what you actually say, and maintains the conversational loop that makes content engaging.
This isn't a prompt generator or a teleprompter. It's a system that actively participates in the conversation.
Asks follow-up questions
Reacts to your answers in real-time, digging deeper into interesting points instead of moving through a static list.
Maintains conversational pacing
Knows when to let you elaborate and when to move on, creating the natural rhythm that keeps viewers engaged.
Forces articulation under pressure
Challenges vague statements and pushes you to clarify your thinking, just like a real interviewer would.
Common scenarios
Making solo videos more engaging
Instead of talking at the camera, have a conversation that viewers can follow naturally.
Fixing awkward talking-to-camera moments
The AI gives you someone to talk with, removing the cognitive discomfort of speaking to a lens.
Practicing explanations before recording
Test how you explain complex ideas and refine your delivery before publishing.
Recording when inspiration strikes
Capture ideas immediately with conversational structure, not notes or rambling voice memos.
Make solo content conversational
Transform awkward camera-talking into natural interviews.
