When they can't hear you,
show them.
Talk the way you always do. In about two seconds Talk2See shows the point as pictures and a few words, so you don't have to raise your voice.

Dad, the taxi comes at two, we'll stop at the bank, and we'll be home by four.
Today
Sound familiar?
Saying it louder comes out harsh.
"What?" again, and your voice goes up. It's hard on both of you.
Captions show every word, fast.
Live caption apps help. Reading long lines as they scroll is hard for some people. A picture is one glance.
Noisy rooms, masks, across the table.
Even with hearing aids, some places are hard. That's when you show it.

Questions
- What is Talk2See?
- Talk2See turns what you say into a simple picture in about two seconds. Put your phone or tablet between you and the person you're talking to, talk normally, and today's plan, a list of steps, or a choice appears as pictures they can see.
- How is it different from live captions?
- Caption apps write down every word. Talk2See shows only the point, as pictures and a word or two: where, when, what's next. It suits people who find long text tiring, and moments when you need to see it at a glance.
- Does it record or save our conversations?
- Conversations aren't recorded or saved. When you close the app, the pictures are gone.
- What do I need to use it?
- A phone, tablet or computer with a web browser and a microphone. An iPhone and iPad app will follow.
- Which languages does it work in?
- You can speak in English, Japanese or Spanish. Picture labels can be shown in English, Japanese, Spanish, Chinese, Korean or French.
- How much will it cost?
- We'll announce pricing before early access opens. If you reserve early access for $5, it counts toward your first month and we'll refund it anytime you ask.
- Does it replace hearing aids?
- Talk2See is a tool for everyday conversation, used alongside hearing aids, sign language or captions. For hearing itself, talk to an audiologist or ENT doctor.
