Chato — Real-Time AI Interpreter
Speak, and be understood. Chato listens to the world around you and turns it into translated speech and live subtitles — calmly and instantly, across 13 languages.
TWO WAYS TO USE IT
Listen
Point your phone at whoever's speaking — a lecture, an announcement, a tour guide, a colleague — and Chato streams a live translation you can read and hear. It auto-detects the spoken language; you just choose what to translate into.
Talk
A face-to-face mode for two people who don't share a language. The screen splits in two, with one half rotated toward the person across the table,
so you can hold a natural back-and-forth — each person reads their own language.
WHY CHATO FEELS DIFFERENT
• Real-time — translation streams as words are spoken, not after long pauses
• Speech + subtitles — hear the translated voice and read along
• 13 languages — English, Chinese (Traditional & Simplified), Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Arabic, Hindi, Dutch
• Calm, distraction-free design — no clutter, just the conversation
• Private — sign in with Apple, nothing else to set up
Start with free minutes. Add flexible minute packs or a subscription when you need more.
Built for travelers, students, classrooms, meetings, hospitals, and help desks — anywhere people need to understand each other, right now.
SUBSCRIPTIONS & TERMS
Chato offers optional auto-renewable subscriptions for additional translation minutes. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at purchase confirmation. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.
