AI review

Translation is only half the job.

After a meeting, a doctor’s visit or an errand, AI review turns the saved conversation into a clear review, so you don’t have to rely on memory.

  • A one-line summary of what it was about
  • Key points and the decisions you agreed on
  • To-dos: who, what and when, only when the conversation says so
  • Questions that are still open
  • Tap any item to check it against the original and translation
  • Context hints: the tone, possible unspoken meaning and a careful way to respond
Export the review and conversation as
  • PDF
  • Markdown
  • Plain text

AI review runs only when you ask for it. AI interpretation may be inaccurate, so check anything important against the original.

Made for the moment

A conversation you can both follow

Tolkivo keeps the exchange visible and moving, so the phone stays in the middle and the people stay in the conversation.

01

Live, both ways

Choose two languages once. Tolkivo follows the conversation in both directions as you take turns speaking.

02

Automatic language detection

Tolkivo recognizes which of the two languages each person is speaking, and the translation usually appears as soon as a sentence ends.

03

Original and translation, together

Each turn keeps the words that were said beside the translation, so both people can read along.

04

Hear it read aloud

Play translations through the speaker, or have them read automatically when you wear headphones.

Clear about what happens

Translation needs a connection.

Tolkivo needs an internet connection to translate a live conversation. While you speak, audio is processed by cloud translation services and the resulting text is shown in the app.

Raw audio is not saved to conversation history by default. Completed sessions leave a text snapshot on this device until you delete it.
