RiseGuide is bringing AI coaching to one of the most anxiety-inducing modern skills: public speaking. The platform's new Speech Analyzer listens to up to 60 seconds of recorded speech, then evaluates pacing, confidence, pauses, filler words, and structure before delivering a score alongside targeted feedback for improvement. Built into RiseGuide's Charisma Mastery program, the feature feels less like another passive self-help tool and more like a speaking coach that fits in your pocket, helping users sharpen clarity, cadence, and presence through real-time analysis and repetition.

Built for long days that start in the surf and end somewhere near the bar, Brixton's latest trunk lineup balances heritage styling with modern performance without leaning too hard into either. The Blitz Boardshort is the more aggressive option, a lightweight stretch trunk cut from quick-dry polyester and spandex with a water-repellent finish, invisible zip pocket, drainage eyelet, and bold graphic treatments that push beyond the standard washed-out beach palette. Available in both 19-inch and 21-inch outseams, it is engineered to move cleanly from paddle-outs to pool decks with minimal fuss. Countering it is the Classic Trunk 17", a stripped-back staple with clean lines, minimal branding, and an easy shorter cut that feels rooted in vintage surf culture while still delivering dependable quick-dry performance. Together, the collection hits the sweet spot between technical utility and everyday wearability, exactly where Brixton tends to do its best work.
