Same product underneath — the trainer, the daily games, Coach Josh. Each board shows the wordmark treatment, the landing voice, a game card, and judge feedback in that direction. Wordmarks use a placeholder name. Scroll, argue about it at dinner (fitting), pick one.
Run real rounds against a bot that hits back. Climb from Novice to TOC. Your record follows you — wins, streaks, and the rounds that got away.
Start a roundWhy this fits: debate kids already talk like athletes — records, streaks, breaking, varsity. Letterman type, banner colors, and scoreboard numerals make practice feel like training season, and the games feel like scrimmages. Loud, proud, school-spirit energy that a 14-year-old would wear on a hoodie.
Speak as if the room is listening, because here, something always is.
Run a full parliamentary round against an opponent that argues back in earnest. A judge reads your flow the way judges actually do — and tells you, in plain prose, why you won or why you didn't. Your cases are filed. Your record accumulates. This is a practice room with a paper trail.
Take the floor →Why this fits: gravitas as a feature. Ink, paper, drop caps, and a masthead say "this activity has a centuries-old lineage and you're joining it." Flatters ambitious students, reads instantly credible to parents, teachers, and grant committees — the adults who sign things.
One of these sentences doesn't hold up. Find it.
You drew AGAINST. Sixty seconds. Make it count.
"People who want more sleep are just lazy." …You taking that?
Why this fits: the NYT-games / Duolingo lane — thick outlines, candy tiles, hard shadows, share cards built for the group chat. Makes the arcade the loud front door for parents and friends, while the trainer stays one tap away. The most viral-shaped of the four.
A practice system for speech & debate: full rounds against a sparring engine, a judge that shows its work, and daily reps that take two minutes. Every session leaves a number behind. The numbers go up.
Begin session 01 →Why this fits: the craft-tool look — Swiss grids, one signal blue, numbers everywhere. Says "serious training instrument," ages well, photographs clean in an App Store listing, and makes the metrics (Hayden's ask) the visual heroes. The most grown-up of the four; the least likely to charm a 12-year-old.
Spirit and swagger. Best if the brand should feel like a team you join. Strong hoodie potential.
Heritage and credibility. Best for the nonprofit/schools pitch and parents who sign checks.
Play-first virality. Best if the daily games are the front door and growth engine.
Precision and metrics. Best if the story is "measurable improvement." Cleanest at scale.
Hybrids are legal — e.g. Block Party for the games arcade + Forum for the trainer is a coherent two-room house. Reply with a letter (or a fight). Implementation is one batch once a direction and the name are locked.
