About Tizy
Tizy lets you phone landlines and mobiles in more than 180 countries from a web browser, with simultaneous AI translation during the call. While you talk, it listens, translates and plays each sentence back in the other person's language, and the reverse, with a delay of a few seconds. It supports over 50 languages in both directions and is pitched mainly at people calling family abroad.
There is nothing to download for the web version: you create an account with an email address, add credit and dial. iOS and Android apps also exist, with the same rates, a synced credit balance, calling from your contacts and shared call history. The site describes HD audio quality and end-to-end encryption for calls.
Pricing is prepaid with no monthly subscription. Credit starts from $10, never expires and is charged per minute by destination, with rates from $0.01. The site contrasts this with traditional carriers that charge monthly fees, higher per-minute rates, and credit that lapses.
