The right words,
for the moments
that ask for them.
A speech worth giving, written with you in an afternoon — not agonized over for a week. You bring the people and the stories. We find the shape.
Short speeches (3 min or under) are free — no card required.
See the whole thing before you pay a penny.
Four questions stand between
you and a finished draft.
Tell us the occasion
Wedding toast, eulogy, keynote, farewell. Each one carries its own weight — we start from the right place.
Find your voice
Heartfelt or hilarious, plainspoken or polished. We write the way you actually talk, not the way speeches usually sound.
Bring the specifics
The names, the inside jokes, the moment that captures them. Real details are what people remember.
Choose your length
A two-minute toast or a ten-minute address. Drag the dial — the price moves with it, and short is free.
Don’t take our word for it.
Take one of our drafts.
Read the opening of each — then the whole thing, exactly as OffTheCuff wrote it. No cherry-picking, no touch-ups. This is the thing you’d be handed.
I've known Tom since we were eleven. That's more than twenty years, and in that time he's had a lot of ideas — not all of them good. There was a moped. There was a haircut in Year 9 we don't really talk about. But when he rang to say he was marrying Priya, I didn't have to think about it. That one, he got right.
The thing about Tom is that he doesn't change his mind. Ever. He once built a whole flat-pack wardrobe without looking at the instructions, because he'd decided he didn't need them. It leaned. It stood there at a bit of an angle for years, and he wouldn't hear a word against it, and he wouldn't let anyone help. That's just how he is. Once he's made his mind up, that's that.
Every one of these started as four short answers. Yours would be about someone only you know.
Write yours →Free to try
Short speeches are free, and there’s no card until you choose a longer one. You’ll always see the price — and the words — before you pay.
Your stories stay yours
We use what you tell us to write your speech, and for nothing else. Private by default, never shared.
You keep the pen
Every draft opens in an editor. Rewrite a line, ask for a change, or start again — it’s your speech, not ours.
Whatever you’ve been asked to say.
You pay for length, not labor.
The longer the speech, the more there is to get right. So that’s what we charge for — by the minute.
A tight, memorable few minutes. Perfect for a toast or an introduction.

The questions everyone asks.
Will it sound like a robot wrote it?
Do I have to pay before I see anything?
Is it private? What happens to the things I tell you?
Can I change it if it’s not quite right?
How long does it take?
I’ve never written a speech before. Is that a problem?
Someone’s waiting
to hear from you.
