Actual Chat

Actual Chat – Where Conversations Come Alive!
Redefine your digital communication with Actual Chat, blending real-time audio, instant transcription, and AI assistance. Speak as naturally as in face-to-face chats, respond faster, read for immediate context, defer without dropping it, and engage without the stress of conventional calls.
Ideal for daily interactions, family chats, business discussions, and beyond. Stay connected, deepen bonds, and nurture relationships like never before.
Features:

- Real-time Voice Messaging + Transcription
We redefine the way voice messaging and texting works. You can simply talk in any of our chats. When you talk, we deliver your voice and its transcript – all in real-time.
Other participants see messages from you popping up while you talk, the last one is growing word-by-word. Once they activate listening mode, they'll be able to hear you as well.
- Stress-Free, Natural Communication Without Calls
We build a medium that makes most of our usual calls redundant by offering a much more convenient and stressless alternative.
There are no calls in Actual Chat. Urgency has its moments, but the majority of our daily conversations don't fall into that category. And we do everything to better accommodate such conversations.
- Nearly Every Feature You Favorite Chat Has
* Rich markup – with @mentions, `code` and ```code blocks```, *italic*, **bold**, etc.
* Photo, video and file sharing.
* Reactions.
* Group and peer-to-peer chats.
* Avatars you can change on a per-chat basis.
Many other features, such as Places (sets of chats you can join at once), are on our near-term roadmap.
- Anonymity
That's another unique feature of Actual Chat:
* Users can select to join anonymity-enabled chats anonymously.
* Our API ensures there's no way to identify an anonymous author.
Such chats are perfect for anonymous discussions, interactions with potential dates, and more.

- AI Feature Pack (upcoming)
"We let you focus on the essence, while AI handles the form." is a key part of our original vision for the ultimate Actual Chat experience.
Automatic conversation summaries, email digests with AI-generated daily updates, speech emotion and tone recognition, and real-time translation are just some of the features we want to deliver to implement this vision.
Expect to see some of them by the end of 2023.
- Strong Focus on Privacy and Security
We implement all the key security practices and policies that the key players in this space use. In particular, our apps use only SSL-encrypted connections; our databases are encrypted and are accessible only to our production cluster; everything is hosted on the Google Cloud Platform, which provides a secure-by-design foundation.

In the long run, we aim to offer one of the most secure mediums available and introduce features such as automatic content expiration, end-to-end encryption, and a mode that allows you to store absolutely nothing on your device.
- Wholehearted Pursuit of Added Value
We believe there is a huge room to improve our digital communication, and being truly obsessed with making it more efficient and convenient is a superior path to growth than anything else. And that's what we bet everything on.
Our platform has no ads, no promoted content, and no addictive feeds. Any features that merely suck weeks and months of your life don't belong here.
