Here is the problem we kept watching people run into, what we built to fix it, why it actually works, and how it stacks up against everything else you could do.
Shpiel is the AI speechwriter built specifically for Jewish speeches: it validates real Torah sources instead of inventing them, finds your exact weekly portion from the date, gets the Hebrew right, and matches your tradition from secular to Chabad. General chatbots like ChatGPT do none of these reliably — the fluent output just hides the mistakes. That accuracy on the Jewish part is why Shpiel exists.
Write my speechYou have to stand up at the bimah, the chuppah, or the graveside. The room is full of people you love, and a rabbi who will catch every wrong word. Most of us were never taught to do this, can't read the Hebrew, and haven't opened a Chumash since our own bar mitzvah.
So we freeze. Or we hand it to ChatGPT, which writes something that could be about anyone, invents a midrash that does not exist, and quotes the wrong week's Torah portion. Either way the speech does not sound like you, and it gets the Jewish part wrong.
Shpiel is built for exactly these speeches. It asks a few simple questions about the person and the occasion, finds your real Torah portion from the date, and pulls the actual sources your tradition would use.
Then it writes a heartfelt draft in your voice, with the Hebrew correct and the details personal. No blank page. No prompt-writing. No invented midrashim. You answer, it writes, you make it yours.
You could ask a chatbot, use a generic speech app, hire a writer, or stare at the blank page. Here is the trade-off, laid out plainly.
