👋 Hi everyone! 🗣️ Ibis is a messaging app that uses real-time translation, speech-to-text, and text-to-speech engines to enable folks to communicate in the way that works best for them. When you use Ibis, you choose the language *you* want to read or listen to, and the voice *you* wish to portray yourself as, and Ibis provides a communication space where you and everyone else can come as they are and communicate with one another, without language or accessibility barriers. 🌍This product is a labor of love from Sparc Cooperative, a special and global team that co-owns Ibis equally. English is not the first language of all of our team members, yet we always felt like we were forced to communicate in English in our day to day. Most other businesses also require their team to speak a single language for work communications. This barrier inspired us to create a tool that allowed for clear communication across different languages, cultures, and backgrounds. We wanted to create something that was accessible first and would revolutionize the way we work and communicate audibly and visually. Ibis now makes communication within our own team more inclusive, as well as our communication with clients and potential partners around the world. 😊We are also extremely proud that Ibis is built by a worker cooperative, is *100% open source*, and the pricing model is fair and usage-based. This simple combination of ideas ensured that we were building something beneficial to humankind, not to our bottom line. 💕We hope you find this tool as useful as we have!

Hi There! This looks like it could be a really intuitive addition for a traveler or even for a support team! Though I wonder, what data does your software collect (for example, IP address, keystrokes, Geolocation, etc.)?

@christina_woodson Hi, and thanks for your question! Our team is a huge believer in privacy *by default*, so we do not collect IP addresses, keystrokes, geolocation, or any other user-identifiable information that you haven't explicitly given to us (like your name and language in your profile, for example). There are also no tracking cookies, no advertisements, and no direct user targeting of any sort. In addition, our product is 100% open source, so you can browse our code directly to verify these statements! https://github.com/sparc-coop/ibis On top of that, in an upcoming phase of development, we will be adding end-to-end encryption of the chat messages themselves, to further increase privacy. We aim for Ibis to be a useful tool that is sustainable and affordable, with no hidden agendas, and no alternative monetization strategies that sell user data. And we will remain true to that premise❤️
