I'm hard-of-hearing and I've been lucky enough to back this product right from the start with their IndieGoGo and help out the Ava team with some little design things here and there. It has come a long, long way since that initial alpha release!
I'm so excited about where Ava can potentially go in the next few years as their team gets a little bit bigger (they're hunting for some great devs and data scientists) and their AI starts to get better and better.
If you do give the app a go, my 1 tip would be to try it more than once. It can sometimes be a little scrappy when dealing with a strange accent or picking up your own voice, but I've been super impressed at how it self-improves after a couple of calls.
For me, this is such a HUGE, huge thing, that I really hope all the guys manage to make this a big success. They've put an insane amount of work into the product for years and they totally deserve to make it happen. I know there's a ton of people in the Deaf community who'll find this absolutely life-changing if it manages to take off.
