Speechy

What Speechy does

Speechy is a privately-held, Bristol-based speechwriting company founded in 2015 that sells direct-to-consumer through a WooCommerce e-commerce storefront serving customers worldwide. The company specializes in wedding speeches and has expanded into adjacent occasion-based writing services including birthdays, anniversaries, eulogies, wedding vows, ceremony scripts, and bespoke love letters. Its core team is described as TV scriptwriters and comedians, and the founders' advice has been featured in The Times, The New York Times, BBC Sounds, Forbes, and the Drew Barrymore Show.

The product portfolio is tiered along a price ladder: downloadable speech templates for 14 wedding roles at £29 each; SpeechyAI, an AI-powered speech generator using a premium third-party AI tier at £49 per speech; a speech edit service at £175; a 48-hour rush service; bespoke one-on-one speechwriting at £345; and two tiers of delivery coaching. SpeechyAI is a registered trademark, and the team has authored the published book 'The Modern Couple's Guide to Wedding Speeches.'

The business operates a pure direct-to-consumer model with no B2B contracts, no physical retail, and no third-party resellers. It accepts ten currencies and relies primarily on earned media, content/SEO, social media (Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest), and Trustpilot reviews for customer acquisition. With 1–10 employees and no disclosed external funding, Speechy functions as a founder-led micro-enterprise whose core differentiators are creative-writing talent, brand recognition within the wedding vertical, and a structured product ladder rather than proprietary technology.
