We’ve built a tool enabling everyone to understand and speak without any language barriers within just one app; Petr Malyukov, CEO of YOUS.

If you speak one language, and only, you dislike the fact that you can’t talk with ease to others, who speak in different languages, wether it is audio and video chats, even simply during phone calls or messages, you constantly have to rely on some intermediary translation tool. Today, living in the globalized and digitalized world, we might still have problems with speaking to others and understanding them even online, and why it should be an issue? Now individuals worldwide can easily switch between chatting, audio or video calls in any language pair, be it Italian – German or English – Hindi, thanks to YOUS. It works just as easily as it sounds: if we are talking voice translation, the tool recognizes speech, interprets it, and speaks in a synthesized voice in the interlocutor’s language. Additionally, the whole conversation is duplicated in text chat format.

Another issue with interpreters is privacy and safety.
When translation services are hired in the corporate world, data confidentiality is granted by legal tools, like NDAs. It doesn’t work in personal lives, reason being, many of us not comfortable with speaking on private and intimate matters with a third party involved. Altogether with the AI-powered concept, YOUS allows users not only to eliminate disclosing sensitive information to simultaneous interpreters, but also to avoid any storage of their personal data.
YOUS quite practical tool to solve an ever – present issue that somehow hadn’t been tackled yet, and quite surprising that product is based on a body of present technologies merged in a hybrid system. YOUS can help to resolve an issue like primary communication apps, but with a completely new quality of breaking down language barriers. You can see in it all is clearly a massive shift in the communications landscape. We all are used to assorted machine translation tools and features that really do help us understand each other no matter the language, but there is immense room to improve, quicken, and sharpen what we have now. YOUS web app is just the beginning, and the capacity ahead is boundless. YOUS also has an app that enables calling mobile and landline numbers with a built-in AI translator, and at the moment YOUS working on developing the know – how for automated recognition of gender and language by voice, as well as voice cloning for cross – language synthesis.

Envision a world where individuals, enterprises, institutions, and other communication parties can finally chat one-on-one independently of their language.
Thousands of doors would get opened immediately. It is exactly the world we’re heading to when introducing a new AI-powered communication tool to the market. Whether you ever wished to understand and be understood immediately while chatting with your foreign friends or business partners online, or whether you never thought of this idea, the new era had arrived. YOUS holds the idea that, the time has come to change international communications by the adoption of AI into the everyday processes of our digital lives.
