Practice with original scenarios informed by public event conventions. Paste your response and get structured, heuristic feedback on every selected performance indicator, with phrase-level comments and suggested rewrites. CompeteAI is not affiliated with or endorsed by DECA.
Choose any individual-series event. Feedback is organized around selected performance indicators from the event category.
Drop in your prepared response or transcribe a practice run. No formatting needed — sentence fragments and notes are fine. The grader handles real-world drafts, not polished prose.
Within seconds, you get scores on each PI, comments on structure and fluency, and suggested rewrites for the weakest sections. Re-run the same scenario as many times as you want.
The grader returns more than a score. It returns the same structured comments a chapter advisor would give you — but in seconds, on every rep.
Every selected performance indicator is checked individually. Missed indicators include concrete ways to strengthen the response.
Tone, fluency, professionalism, and pacing — scored against the rubric judges actually use, not generic writing feedback.
Problem identification, situation analysis, alternatives, recommendation, implementation, Q&A handling. We tell you which section is dragging your score.
For each weak section, we propose a rewrite in the same tone you used — so you keep your voice while sharpening the substance.
Select any event below. Each scenario shows the situation, your role, the judge's role, and the performance indicators you'll be evaluated on in this independent practice activity.
