👋 Hey Product Hunters! I'm Quinn, a solo founder, and I'm excited to launch TalkTool — real-time AI translation for phone calls. The problem: Millions of important phone conversations fail every day because two people don't speak the same language. Staffing firms can't interview Spanish-speaking candidates. Construction unions can't dispatch crews. Healthcare providers legally must provide language access — and human interpreter lines are expensive, slow to connect, and awkward on a live call. The solution: TalkTool sits on the call and translates both sides in real time. You talk normally, they talk normally, and each side hears the other in their own language — with the original voice still audible underneath so the call feels human, not robotic. 🗣️ How people are using it today: 🏗️ A national staffing firm runs Spanish-language candidate interviews and job-site support 👷 A construction union uses it for daily dispatch communication with members ⚕️ Healthcare organizations use it for LEP compliance (we sign BAAs, and store zero call content for healthcare accounts — no recordings, no transcripts) ⚖️ Personal injury law firms use it for client intake 🌍 EU e-commerce teams use it for cross-border customer calls 🎯 What makes it different: Works on real phone calls — no app for the other person to install, no "please hold for the interpreter" Conference-in bridge works with your existing phone system (RingCentral, Zoom Phone, 8x8, Dialpad + a Chrome extension) Sub-second latency pipeline built for natural conversation, not walkie-talkie turn-taking Custom glossaries for industry-specific terminology (construction, medical, legal) Call recordings + bilingual transcripts when you want them, zero retention when you don't EU-ready: GDPR DPAs, EU-hosted stack I built this because language access shouldn't require a $2/minute interpreter line or a clunky app. Real businesses with real compliance requirements are already running daily operations on it. Try it at usetalktool.com — I'm a solo founder, I read everything, and your feedback directly shapes what I build next. What language pairs or use cases should I prioritize? 🙏
