TRANSLATION THAT FEELS LIKE A CONVERSATION
Stop passing a phone around like a calculator.
Most translators are excellent phrase tools. hyVox is built around the moment two people are actually sitting across from each other.
Talk naturally.
Hold to talk or switch on live mode. hyVox detects speech, direction, silence, and the next turn.
Hear the answer.
Translations can play automatically with selectable voices, while the original and translated text remain visible to both people.
Private by design.
Encrypted transport, isolated hyVox accounts, no ad trackers, and no hyVox conversation-history database. Conversation content is processed transiently rather than stored as a user transcript by hyVox.
THE TRANSLATOR FIELD IS GOOD. WE BUILT FOR A DIFFERENT MOMENT.
hyVox vs. the translators people already know.
Apple, Google and DeepL all have serious translation products. hyVox focuses on a cross-platform, one-device face-to-face experience with Hypatia-style interaction and no hyVox conversation-history library.
