Travelling
Ask for directions, order, book, chat with your host, even in Icelandic.
The travel translator →Instant voice translator:
Speak your language. They hear you in theirs.
Each person speaks into their own phone. TALKSEN translates every sentence in voice and text. The other person scans a QR code: nothing to install.
Try it: I speak English, the other person speaks…

In three steps
A translated conversation, from the first word to the last
Measured on our prototype
A whole sentence, the whole meaning
TALKSEN waits for the end of your sentence to translate all of it. Watch when the other person starts hearing it.

Illustration based on our October 2026 measurements between two phones: the translated voice starts 1.3 to 1.7 s after the sentence ends, depending on the language. The translated text is shown on screen too.
What changes
What TALKSEN does differently
We used the existing apps before building our own. Here is what bothered us, and what we changed.
Often elsewhereWith TALKSEN
You pass the phone back and forth, taking turns.Everyone keeps their own phone and speaks whenever they like.
You wonder whether the translation kept the meaning.Each sentence is translated as a whole and stays on screen.
The other person has to install the same app.A QR code is all it takes: nothing to install for the other person.
One synthetic voice for everyone.One voice per person: you always know who is speaking.
Proper names get mistranslated.Your vocabulary helps TALKSEN recognise your proper names.
You never know whether you were understood.A “?” flags a doubtful sentence so you can repeat it.

Your names, better recognised
People, streets, companies: save them, and TALKSEN recognises them better.

Our commitments
What we will never do
Fake discounts, hidden subscriptions, impossible promises: too many apps rely on them. That is not how we work.
No weekly subscriptions
No free trial that quietly turns into a subscription. A reminder before any trial ends.
No fake discounts
No permanent “−75%”, no countdown that keeps restarting. A price is a price.
The same price for everyone
Shown with tax included before you buy, in your local currency. In the same currency, the same price in the app and online.
Only tested languages
Every language we list has been tested with real voices. The others will wait until they are ready.
Simple cancellation
No phone call, no hidden form.
A real French company

Frequently asked questions
Does the other person need to install TALKSEN?
No. They scan your QR code with their phone’s camera: the conversation opens in their browser, already set to their language.
How long does the translation take?
TALKSEN waits for the end of your sentence and translates all of it, which keeps the meaning better. The other person hears it about a second and a half later, and reads it on their screen.
Do I need an internet connection?
Yes, translation happens online. If the other person has no signal, they will be able to join your phone’s hotspot with a second QR code.
Are my conversations stored?
Your history is kept on your phone, and you can switch it off or delete it at any time. The place name is only used if you allow it.
Does TALKSEN understand proper names?
Better with your help. Save names of people, streets or companies in your vocabulary: TALKSEN recognises them better and avoids translating them. The text on screen lets you check, and the backup keyboard lets you type a difficult name.
How much will TALKSEN cost?
Prices will be announced at launch: shown with tax included, the same for everyone, with no weekly subscription and a free plan to try it out.
