Praat ( PRAHT; Dutch: [praːt] transl. "Talk") is a free, open-source computer software package widely used for speech analysis and synthesis in phonetics and other fields of linguistics. The software was developed and is maintained by Paul Boersma and David Weenink at the University of Amsterdam, and is compatible most major operating systems, including Unix, Linux, Mac, and Microsoft Windows. Praat has been used in linguistic research on endangered and minority languages, as well as for analyzing regional accents and phonetic variation.

Praat's main uses are the analysis, manipulation, and synthesis of sounds. With a given sound, Praat allows users to extract information about vowel formants, prosodic details (including intonation and pitch), and visual information via spectrograms and waveforms, which includes voicing, as well as the presence or absence of a particular segment. Users can also annotate sounds and interact with them using the built-in GUI scripting language.
