Talks with people

Talks out loud

Phone calls, voice messages, and live calls in its own app.

Not everyone wants to type. bia can pick up a Telegram or WhatsApp call, listen, and answer in a natural voice. It understands voice messages and can send its own. And in its private web app, you can simply press the phone button and talk.

What it means for you

Real calls

bia answers and places voice calls on Telegram and WhatsApp, and can join group calls. It hears you, thinks, and speaks back — and if you interrupt, it stops talking, like a person would.

Voice messages, both ways

Send it a voice note and it understands it right away. Ask for a voice reply and it records one, which arrives as a normal voice bubble.

A call button in its own app

Open bia’s private web app on your phone or laptop, press 📞, and talk. bia can also call you there — your screen rings, you answer or decline.

A written summary afterwards

When a call ends, bia posts the whole conversation as text in the chat, so nothing said is lost.

Runs on the machine

Listening and speaking happen on bia’s own computer, not on a stranger’s server. The recording itself never leaves the room — only the words go to bia’s brain.

Ideas for using it

  • A patient voice on the phone for an older relative who finds typing hard.
  • Leave bia a voice note while driving and get the answer as text when you park.
  • Practise a language by simply calling and talking.
  • Let bia call you when a long job finishes, instead of sending yet another message.

Good to know

Voices are clear but not human — people will hear it is a computer. Recognition is best in a quiet room; a cheap computer is slower to answer than a powerful one.

Wake up a potato

All you need is a USB stick and a computer you are not using. Twenty minutes later, it is someone.
