AI tools that run a full IELTS Speaking test
Short answers first. The full table and a note on each tool are below.
| A live examiner that follows up | MockLive AI, Speakative, SpeakMetry, Mockeva, EnglishTests.AI and Ashore. The test runs as a conversation and the examiner asks about what you just said. |
|---|---|
| That, plus pronunciation scored | MockLive AI, Speakative, SpeakMetry, Mockeva and EnglishTests.AI. |
| Free, with no paid plan | ParrotTalk. Every test is free; a daily scoring limit applies. |
| Start without an account | EnglishTests.AI, ParrotTalk and IELTS Mocks, each with its own daily or test limit. |
| Pay once, no subscription | MockLive AI and SpeakMetry sell packs or passes that don’t renew on their own. |
| Turn the report into practice | Ashore (ours): the one thing costing you most, practised on sentences you said, then daily review of your own mistakes. |
“Not stated” means we couldn’t find it on the tool’s public pages, not that the feature is missing. Prices are as listed, in the currency shown.

Pick it if you want the report turned into practice: the one thing costing you most, fixed on sentences you actually said, then daily review of your own mistakes. Not assessed yet. The report says “not assessed” instead of guessing a number.
A pronunciation-first speaking app for iOS and Android. It has IELTS speaking practice, but its site doesn’t describe a continuous Part 1–3 mock test or its length.
An AI speaking coach app for iOS and Android with short recorded practice and conversations. Its site doesn’t state the IELTS parts covered or a full test length.
Free preparation from the British Council, with two full mock tests. AI feedback on speaking is a paid upgrade, and the speaking format isn’t described in detail.
We read each tool’s public website, help pages, terms and app store listings on 12 October 2026. We didn’t sign up, pay or test scoring accuracy, so this compares what each tool says, not how well it works.
The list is sorted by need, not ranked. A tool is in the table if it runs a full Part 1–3 Speaking test with AI feedback.
Ashore is our product. Its row follows the same rules, including where it falls short: it doesn’t score pronunciation yet and it needs an account.
Prices and plans change often, and some vary by country, so check the tool’s own page before you pay.
Your first full Speaking test and its report are free. Try it next to any tool above and keep the one whose feedback you act on.
