Your product makes me think immediately towards high school/college debate (https://youtu.be/HGyFBRu5F8o?t=1461). Policy debate in particular has the added benefit of being untranscrible (listen for a couple minutes).

Couple ideas: (1) Analysis tool like Krossover, by cutting out prep time from videos like the above, segmenting by speech, and allowing people to annotate, search by annotation, etc. (2) a response platform for people to practice debates outside of tournaments. Right now, if you want to practice, you either debate with a teammember, or email speech docs to others, which doesn't really capture the energy or spirit of a debate. I could see this being useful esp for debaters at small schools without large teams, or rural areas without nearby partner schools, etc...
