Prata
100% on-device · works offline

Talk to anyone. Understand everyone.

Prata turns your iPhone into a live interpreter for face-to-face conversations. It listens, translates, and speaks the reply out loud — instantly, without the internet, and without a single word ever leaving your phone.

How it works

Three taps, then just talk

No turn-taking buttons, no “press to speak.” Prata keeps listening the whole time and keeps up with the conversation.

1

Pick your languages

Choose what you speak and what you want to hear. The right on-device models load in the background.

2

Start the session

Set the phone on the table between you. Prata listens continuously and transcribes every utterance from both sides.

3

Hear the translation

Each line is translated and spoken aloud in a natural voice, while a complete transcript builds up for you to review.

Face-to-face mode

Built for the space across the table

Flip Prata into face-to-face mode and the screen splits in two, with the other person's side rotated to face them. Both of you read your own language, in large, glanceable type — no passing the phone back and forth.

  • One phone, two readers, two languages
  • Automatically detects who is speaking which language
  • Big, dynamic text sized to be read at arm's length

Why Prata

Private by design, fast by nature

Every part of the pipeline — listening, translating, and speaking — runs directly on your iPhone's chip.

Nothing leaves your phone

No cloud, no servers, no accounts. Your microphone audio and transcripts stay on your device — always.

Works fully offline

On a plane, on a mountain, or abroad with no data — once the models are downloaded, Prata needs no connection.

Never misses a word

Prata listens continuously and captures everything it hears, so it keeps up even in fast, overlapping conversation.

Speaks out loud

Translations are read aloud in natural neural voices — pick the one you like, from crisp and clear to warm and human.

A transcript you can trust

Everything said is saved to a full transcript you can scroll back through, copy, and share when the moment has passed.

39 languages, understood

From Spanish and Japanese to Ukrainian, Thai, and Cantonese — Prata recognizes speech across dozens of languages.

Honest by default

What Prata is — and isn't

Prata does one thing extremely well. Here's exactly where it shines, and where it's the wrong tool.

Great for

  • Live, in-person conversations — travel, markets, restaurants, directions
  • Meeting people when you share no common language
  • Anywhere with poor, expensive, or no internet
  • Private conversations you'd never send to a cloud service
  • Keeping a written record of what was said

Not built for

  • Translating documents, web pages, or typed text
  • Transcribing large meetings or lecture halls of many speakers
  • Subtitling videos, films, or streamed audio
  • A cloud API or desktop app — Prata is an iPhone app
  • Zero-setup use: models (a few GB) download on first run
