Make friends worldwide with chat that translates itself

Globzy helps you make real friends across the world. Discover people from 190+ countries, start 1:1 chats, and let instant translation handle the language barrier — you type in your language, they read in theirs. What makes it different: native-language icebreakers, rich profiles with personality, AI companions to keep conversations going, and a privacy-first design. Free on Android.
How does the AI companion thing actually work in practice, like is it jumping in when a convo stalls or is it more like a separate chat you can tap into whenever? Curious how often it ends up feeling helpful versus just kind of awkward.
@hakani8ik Great question! It's the second one, a separate chat you can tap into whenever, not something that jumps into your human conversations (that felt intrusive when we prototyped it). AI Companions show up in the Explore feed alongside real people, but they're clearly marked with an AI badge, in the feed, on their profile, and in the chat header, so there's never any ambiguity about who you're talking to. The idea is a zero-pressure place to warm up, practice a language, or just chat at 3am when nobody's online. On the "helpful vs. awkward" point: keeping it opt-in and clearly labeled is exactly what keeps it from being awkward, it never pretends to be a person. Would love to hear how it feels if you give it a spin!
typed a quick hello to someone in Brazil and watched it pop up in Portuguese on their end, felt like magic. the profile questions actually make it easy to start talking without the awkward small talk.
@sleymanenseiwb That "felt like magic" moment is exactly what we built it for, thank you! 🙌 The profile questions were a late addition after we noticed most chats died at "hi, how are you", so it's great to hear they're doing their job. If anything ever feels off with the translations, tell us....we're tuning them constantly.
