Speaker A · English
“Hey, could you please tell me how to get to the railway station?”
क्या आप मुझे बता सकते हैं कि रेलवे स्टेशन कैसे पहुंचा जाए?
Real-time voice translation
Hold the button and say what you mean. TOKI hears it, translates it, and says it out loud in their language — while you are both still standing there.

Not a mock-up
One continuous take, spoken into a microphone, against the same servers you will be using. We cut an idle pause between the two turns. We did not retype a single word, and nothing on screen is staged.
Speaker A · English
“Hey, could you please tell me how to get to the railway station?”
क्या आप मुझे बता सकते हैं कि रेलवे स्टेशन कैसे पहुंचा जाए?
Speaker B · Hindi
“स्टेशन यहाँ से दो किलोमीटर दूर है, आप ऑटो ले सकते हैं।”
“The station is two kilometers away from here, you can take an auto.”
Speaker A speaks English Speaker B speaks Hindi
Both of them heard it, too. The italic line is what was said; the line under it is what TOKI spoke aloud in the other language. The recording has no audio track — screen capture cannot take one — so the voice you would have heard is missing from the clip, not from the app.
How it works
No menus to learn, no phrasebook to scroll, no keyboard in a script you cannot type.
Step 01
One for you, one for them. Any pair of the fourteen — it does not have to involve English.
Step 02
Speak the way you normally speak. The microphone is open while the button is down and closed the moment you let go — you can see it, the whole time.
Step 03
TOKI says it out loud in their language and writes it down. They hold their own button and reply, and it comes back in yours.
What you get
Every feature here exists because a real exchange needed it — someone had to ask a price, check an address, or read back a name they could not pronounce.
The translation is said, not just shown — which matters when the other person is driving, carrying something, or cannot read your alphabet.
Each person gets their own talk button and their own language. Nobody hands a phone across a counter, and nobody types.
What you said and what TOKI said appear side by side. Useful for a name, a street, a price — anything worth pointing at and checking.
Sessions are saved to your account, so the address someone gave you last Tuesday is still there on whatever device you open next.
A dark theme that works at a night market and a light one that works in sunlight. The app remembers which you picked.
It runs in the browser you already have. Allow the microphone and you are translating; Android and iOS builds are on the way.
Languages
Not fourteen languages into English. Thai to Japanese, Hindi to Portuguese, Vietnamese to German — every pair works, both directions.
Where it helps
TOKI was built in Bangkok, for the kind of exchange that lasts ninety seconds and decides how your afternoon goes.
Getting around
Taxis, directions, hotel check-in, the counter at the station. Short exchanges, spoken, usually with your hands full.
Markets & street food
Order, ask a price, say you cannot eat chilli. The vendor answers into the same phone and hears your reply in their own language.
Hospitality
Hotel, restaurant and spa staff serving a guest with no shared language, without waiting for the one colleague who speaks it.
Shopping & services
Salons, phone repair, tailoring, deliveries — anything that needs you to describe a thing rather than point at it.
Business
Supplier calls, site visits and meetings where hiring an interpreter is overkill but guessing is expensive.
Living abroad
Landlords, neighbours, the delivery driver at the gate. The everyday admin that quietly decides whether a place feels like home.
Straight answers
A translator is asked to listen to things people would not put in writing. So here is the whole arrangement, in plain language, before you sign up.
Start talking
Open it in this browser — no install, no card. The mobile apps are still on their way; the web app is the same product, on the same servers.
Store QR — coming soon.
The mobile apps are not listed yet. The web app is live now.
Questions
You pick a language for each speaker, hold the talk button and speak. TOKI records only while the button is held, transcribes what you said, translates it, and speaks the result out loud in the other language. The transcript and the translation both appear on screen.
No. TOKI is built for two people sharing one phone. Each speaker has their own talk button and their own language, so the other person speaks into the same device and hears the reply out loud. Nothing to install on their side, no link to send, no account for them to make.
Fourteen, in both directions: English, Thai, Hindi, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese (Mandarin), Russian, Indonesian and Vietnamese. Any of them can be paired with any other — neither side has to be English.
Every new account starts with 30 minutes of free translation time, and Profile shows exactly how much of it you have used.
Paid top-up packs are planned but not on sale yet, so there is nothing to buy today and no card to enter. When pricing is live it will be posted here first.
No. TOKI runs in your browser — allow microphone access and you are translating. Android and iOS builds are being prepared for the stores; they are the same app talking to the same servers.
No. Transcription, translation and speech all happen on our servers, so TOKI needs a connection. The servers are in Singapore, which keeps the round trip short across South-East Asia.
No. The microphone opens when you press the talk button and closes when you release it. There is no background listening and no wake word, and the app shows a live recording indicator the entire time it is capturing.
Very good at everyday conversation — directions, prices, orders, arrangements, small talk. It is a machine translator, and like every machine translator it can miss an idiom, a name or a heavy accent.
Please do not rely on it for medical, legal, financial or emergency situations. For those, use a qualified human interpreter.
Yes — from inside the app, in one screen, at any time. Everything attached to the account goes with it. If you can no longer sign in, there is a web form at toki.brivfy.com/delete-account.html.
From the same team
The other thing we build. TOKI gets you through a conversation in a language you do not read; Brivfy gets you through the day's news in the time you actually have.
