Why We Founded TarkTalk: Instantly Translate and Understand Your Phone Call

By Steve Mao

It's really frustrating to call someone who speaks a different language, isn't it? Even worse, you might not know whether you and the person on the other end misunderstood each other — which could lead to serious problems.

So we built TarkTalk: Born from frustration, built for clarity. With live translation, call transcripts, summaries, and AI analysis, you can call anyone, anywhere — with confidence.

My wife loves traveling. Japan is one of her favourite destinations. But she only knows few Japanese phrases such as おはようございます ("good morning"). She felt frustrated when she couldn't call a Japanese bus hotline during heavy snowy days in Hokkaido. Even call to make a dinner reservation at a popular local restaurant was so hard.

Happy wife, happy life. That inspired me and my friends, senior telecom and AI technologists, to create TarkTalk — a platform that lets anyone call globally in their own language with live translation. It also provides transcripts, summaries, and AI analysis to prevent misunderstandings and maintain call history.

Just this month, my wife used TarkTalk.com to call a special-rate hotel in Japan normally reserved for locals. She spoke English, the hotel staff replied in Japanese — and she successfully booked two nights.
