"You're at the doctor."

"Your mom speaks only Spanish."

"The nurse speaks only English."

"You grab your phone."

"You speak. She hears it — instantly."

"She answers. You hear it too."

Puente AI just works.


01 / 04

The problem

Other apps pause.
Puente AI keeps going.

Google Translate, iTranslate, Apple Translate — each requires you to tap, speak one phrase, stop, then tap again. Puente AI runs a continuous two-way conversation. You speak, they hear. They reply, you hear. No stops. No resets. Just talking.

02 / 04

The difference

Sounds like them.
Learns like you.

Puente AI reads your pitch and energy on first use, then picks a voice that actually sounds like you — not a generic robot. The more you use it, the more it adapts. Translation plays in under 2 seconds. Your voice profile saves automatically and gets sharper every session.

03 / 04

Not just translated. Understood.

The words change.
The meaning stays.

Other apps give you the literal words. Puente AI gives you the actual meaning. It tracks the full conversation — topic, tone, and who's speaking — and rewrites every translation so it sounds natural in that language. Idioms get localized — "break a leg" comes out as "¡Échale ganas!", not a baffling word-for-word mess. Formal stays formal at the clinic; casual stays casual at the counter. Slang lands like slang.

04 / 04

Works anywhere

No Wi-Fi.
No problem.

8 languages run entirely on-device using Whisper AI. Walk into a clinic, a job site, or a taqueria with no signal — Puente AI still works. Offline mode activates silently, no setup required.


Live Demo

Your voice. Their ear.

Tap the mic and speak. Puente AI transcribes, translates, and plays audio privately in the other person's earbud — all in under 2 seconds.

Live translation

Real-world use

Built for the conversations that actually matter.

From Harris Health clinics to Houston ISD classrooms to construction sites in Katy. Profession Packs tune vocabulary for the exact context you're in.

Healthcare

Describe symptoms to an English-only nurse. Discuss a diagnosis. Explain medication instructions. Medical Pack adds clinical vocab, anatomy terms, and formal register.

Legal & Immigration

Immigration appointments, lease signings, rights explanations. Legal Pack preserves court terminology and formal register automatically.

Construction & Trades

Safety briefings, OSHA requirements, job-site task communication. Trades Pack tuned for foremen and bilingual crews — casual register, job-site vocabulary.


Built for the real world

5 modes.
Every situation covered.

From a quick counter conversation to a multilingual boardroom — pick the setup that fits, or let Puente AI detect it automatically.

Auto-detect

Fully hands-free

Puente AI's mic listens continuously. The moment you stop talking, silence triggers the translation — no button, no tap, nothing. Just speak naturally.

Phone only

Tabletop

Flat on the table — split-screen

Lay the phone flat on a desk, counter, or table and it splits into a two-sided conversation view — each person reads their own side, with a clear exit when you're done. Translation plays through the speaker, out loud for everyone present. Perfect for walk-up conversations, kiosks, and classrooms.

Phone only

Earbud

Any stereo headphones — one earbud each

Works with any stereo headphones — wired or Bluetooth, including on iPhone. Connect them first, then each person wears one earbud: left ear hears one language, right ear the other. Private, simultaneous translation for both — and no left/right split when you use the phone speaker instead.

One shared pair of earbuds

Smart Glasses

Hear it without looking down

Pair your Ray-Ban Meta, Xreal, or any supported smart glasses. Puente AI auto-detects the device and routes translation audio directly to your glasses speakers — eyes up, hands free, completely private.

Ray-Ban Meta · Xreal · Engo

Bone Conduction

Solo mode — hear through your cheekbones

Connect your Shokz or AfterShokz. Puente AI detects bone conduction headphones and switches to single-channel mode automatically — no left/right split, full translation delivered to the wearer. Ears stay open to your surroundings.

Shokz · AfterShokz
PRO

Remote

Two phones, any distance on Earth

Each person uses their own phone. Share a 6-digit room code — no app account needed on either end. Speak in your language, they hear you translated in theirs in real time. Built for video calls, telemedicine, and remote family.

Two phones (one each)
PRO

Group

Everyone speaks — everyone is heard

Place the phone in the center of the table. The ambient mic picks up all speakers and uses diarization to separate each voice — assigning a unique label and language to each person. Everyone sees the full conversation translated in their own language as a live caption feed. Built for meetings, multilingual dinners, and negotiations.

Phone in center (earbuds optional)

Talk to anyone.

130+ languages. 8 offline. No account. Under 4 seconds to your first translation.

How It Works

Open. Share. Talk.

No account. No setup. No typing. Ready in under 4 seconds.

Open. No setup needed.

No account. No login. Puente AI opens right where you left off. Pick your two languages from 130+ — or let Auto-detect handle it hands-free. Common phrases are pre-loaded in memory so your first translation is just as fast as your hundredth.

Pick your mode.

Choose how you want to communicate. Auto-detect listens hands-free — no buttons. Tabletop lays the phone flat for a group. Earbud gives each person private audio. Remote connects two phones anywhere on Earth with a 6-digit code.

Speak. Puente AI handles the rest.

In Auto-detect, just talk — Puente AI listens and translates automatically. In manual modes, hold to speak. Either way, translation plays in under 2 seconds in a voice matched to that speaker. Puente AI learns how each person talks and gets sharper every session. History saves automatically.


Sounds like a local

Deeper than any generic translator.

Puente models a language the way a local does — across independent dimensions you can combine. This is the linguistic premium, on Plus and up.

Regional dialects

39 across 7 languages

Mexican vs. Rioplatense Spanish, Egyptian vs. Gulf Arabic, Québécois French — the version people actually speak, not a flat default.

Honorifics & politeness

Address anyone correctly

Japanese keigo, Korean speech levels, Vietnamese kinship terms, Hindi tū / tum / āp, Thai gendered particles (ครับ / ค่ะ).

Grammatical gender

estoy cansada, not cansado

Your own words inflected to your gender across ~30 gendered languages. Opt-in, never guessed from your voice.

Spoken vs. literary

How people actually talk

The everyday spoken register — not textbook prose — for 16 languages including Tamil, Arabic, Greek and Bengali.

Your script, your numerals

١٢٣ · ๑๒๓ · १२३

Serbian in Cyrillic or Latin; native numerals for 20 languages. Opt-in and language-specific.

Code-switching

Spanglish, understood

Mix languages mid-sentence — Spanglish, Hinglish, Taglish — and get one clean, natural translation back.

Local formatting

Formatted the local way

Miles or kilometers, lakh and crore, family-name-first for CJK names, and the right quotation marks (« » / „ " / 「」).

Mix and match any of these — Puente applies them all at once, so a translation lands the way a native speaker would say it.

Features

Built different. Verified.

01

Auto Voice Matching — it sounds like you.

The moment you speak, Puente AI quietly analyzes your pitch, rhythm, and vocal energy. It determines whether you sound more male, female, or somewhere in between — then picks the closest matching voice in the target language. A deep-voiced man gets a deep male translation. A high-energy woman gets a high-energy response. After the first confident read, your voice profile is saved — no guessing on the second conversation. You can also set it manually in Settings and Puente AI will never override your pick.

02

Fast enough to feel like a real conversation.

Translation plays back in under 2 seconds — and common phrases are pre-loaded so the very first one feels instant. When you're offline, 8 languages keep working on-device with no signal at all (English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Mandarin Chinese, Japanese). Hospital basement, construction site, middle of nowhere: it works.

03

Pull out a speaker. It just works.

Connect any Bluetooth speaker — JBL, AirPods, whatever you have — and Puente AI automatically routes the translation audio to it. No button to press, no setting to change. On Android it wakes up as soon as the speaker connects. On iOS it switches the moment audio routes. Just pull it out and start talking.

04

Trained on your field, not just the dictionary.

Generic apps translate words. Profession Packs teach Puente AI the vocabulary your job actually uses — clinical terms, legal language, OSHA safety words, restaurant service phrases. 9 packs available (Medical, Legal, Trades, Restaurant, Finance, Education, Childcare, Emergency, Faith) — included with Plus and up as part of the linguistic premium.

05

One app. Every situation.

Counter conversation, doctor's office, job site, video call, family dinner — Puente AI has a mode for each one. Auto-detect listens hands-free. Tabletop plays out loud for a group. Earbud mode gives each person private audio. Remote connects two phones from anywhere. Group mode handles up to 8 people at once, tracking every speaker separately.

06

The other person hears what you meant — not just what you said.

Word-for-word translation often sounds wrong or loses the meaning entirely. Puente AI builds a running picture of the whole conversation — what you're talking about, the tone, who's speaking — and uses that to make every translation sound natural on the other end. Idioms get localized. Slang gets adapted. The register matches the situation.

07

The right tone without thinking about it.

A doctor visit sounds different from a restaurant order. Puente AI knows that. Set it to Auto, Formal, or Casual — or just activate a Profession Pack and it sets the right register automatically. Medical conversations come out formal and precise. Service industry conversations come out natural and friendly. You focus on talking, not on settings.

08

Your conversations stay yours.

No account. No login. No email required — ever. Puente AI doesn't store your audio anywhere. Nothing is sold, nothing is tracked. When you're offline, everything stays on your device. Even in cloud mode, audio is processed and immediately discarded. Your history lives only on your phone and you can delete it anytime.

09

Smart glasses, bone conduction, lapel mics — just works.

Smart glasses (Ray-Ban Meta, Xreal, Engo) auto-connect via A2DP and route translation to your lenses speakers — eyes up, hands free. Bone conduction headphones (Shokz, AfterShokz) are detected automatically and switch to single-channel solo mode. Professional lapel mics (Røde, DJI, Hollyland, Deity, Sennheiser) are auto-selected as the highest-priority input with no configuration needed. Connect your Apple Watch or Wear OS watch to trigger recording with a button press using Push-to-Talk mode.

10

Empathy Engine — your tone, translated.

Voice matching handles the who. The Empathy Engine handles the how. It reads six emotional dimensions in your voice in real time — pause density, vocal tremor, onset sharpness, dynamic range, rhythm regularity, and sustained vowel ratio — to build a full emotional fingerprint. Then it shapes the translated voice to match: slowing down when you're being deliberate, adding weight when you're emotionally present, staying smooth when you're calm. The person on the other end doesn't just hear your words translated. They hear your tone translated. If you're telling someone something important, the translated voice carries that weight.

11

Live Captions — see it as it's spoken.

A real-time caption bar floats on screen as translations arrive — showing exactly what was said and what it means, simultaneously. The speaker's name appears if known. Works on your phone screen today, with AR glasses caption output coming next. Set it to phone-only, glasses-only, or both from Settings.

12

Voice Identity — know who said what.

Puente AI learns who's speaking using voice fingerprinting and directional audio cues. In group conversations, each speaker gets their own color-coded lane in the transcript — so you always know who said what, not just what was said. Speaker attribution is live and automatic, with no setup required.

13

Emotion-Aware Translation — tone travels too.

Beyond the six vocal dimensions of the Empathy Engine, you can now manually lock a translation register: Auto, Formal, Casual, or Domain-specific for medical, legal, and trades contexts. The output tone adapts to match — and a badge on each translation card confirms which register was used. The Worker echoes back exactly how your words were delivered.

14

Voice Passthrough — your voice, their language.

When enabled, translated audio sounds like the original speaker — not a generic voice. Pro users can clone their own voice with explicit two-step consent. If cloning fails or times out, it falls back to natural TTS automatically. Your voice, in their language.

15

Mesh Rooms — one QR code. Every language.

Start a live translation room and share a QR code. Anyone who scans puente.chat/r/[roomID] joins and sees captions in their own language — in real time. No accounts, no setup. The host's local translation runs unaffected even if the room fails. Rooms auto-expire after 4 hours. Perfect for meetings, classrooms, and events with mixed-language groups.

16

Your Spanish, not textbook Spanish.

39 regional dialects across 7 languages — Mexican, Colombian, Caribbean, Rioplatense, Chilean or Peninsular Spanish; US, UK, Indian, Australian or Nigerian English; Brazilian, European or Angolan Portuguese; Egyptian, Levantine, Gulf or Maghrebi Arabic; Québécois or African French; Austrian, Swiss or Bavarian German. Puente AI localizes vocabulary and idioms to the version people actually speak there, not the flat, one-size-fits-all output most machine translation defaults to. Available on Plus and up.

17

Gender-correct — estoy cansada, not cansado.

When you talk about yourself, Puente AI inflects your own words to your gender across roughly 30 gendered languages. Generic translators default to masculine and get this wrong in every sentence. It is opt-in and never guessed from your voice — you choose, and Puente AI honors it. Available on Plus and up.

18

The right honorifics for who you're addressing.

Tell Puente AI whether you're speaking to an elder, a peer, a child, or a professional, and it uses the right honorifics and kin-terms: Japanese keigo (including the humble business form), Korean speech levels, Vietnamese kinship pronouns, Hindi tū / tum / āp, and Thai gendered particles (ครับ / ค่ะ). That's respect a simple formal-or-casual toggle can't reach. Available on Plus and up.

19

Spanglish, understood.

Mix languages mid-sentence — Spanglish, Hinglish, Taglish — and Puente AI reads the full meaning across both and returns one clean, natural translation. No stray untranslated fragments, no confusion. It just gets what you meant.

20

Local units and numbers, automatically.

Puente AI converts measurements and numbers to what the region actually uses — kilometers become miles for a U.S. listener, and large numbers group into lakh and crore for South Asian languages. It converts the value, not just the label, so nothing gets lost in translation.

21

Talk over each other — naturally.

Real conversations overlap. Puente AI keeps listening while it speaks, so either person can cut in at a normal volume — no shouting, no walkie-talkie wait for a beep. True half-duplex, the way people actually talk.

22

How people talk, not textbook prose.

Many languages have an everyday spoken form and a formal literary one that barely resemble each other. Puente AI renders the spoken register for 16 languages — including Tamil, Arabic, Greek, Czech and Bengali — so a casual conversation sounds casual, not like a written speech. Available on Plus and up.

23

Your script. Your numerals.

Prefer Serbian in Cyrillic or Latin? Choose it. Want numbers in the language's own digits — ١٢٣, ๑๒๓, १२३? Turn it on for 20 languages. Both are opt-in and cover specific languages — script switching currently ships for Serbian — so nothing changes unless you ask. Available on Plus and up.

24

Formatted the local way.

Beyond the words, Puente AI matches local convention: family-name-first order for Chinese, Japanese and Korean names, and the right quotation marks for the language — « » in French, „ " in German, 「」 in Japanese. The small things that make a translation read like it belongs.


Voice Intelligence

Puente AI learns your voice.
Then mirrors it back.

Most apps give everyone the same robotic voice. Puente AI treats your voice as a full human signal — not just a source of text.

Auto Voice Matching

The right voice. Every time.

The moment you speak, Puente AI quietly analyzes your pitch, rhythm, and vocal energy. It figures out whether you sound more male, female, or somewhere in between — and picks the closest matching voice in the target language.

If you're a deep-voiced man speaking Spanish, the English translation comes out in a deep male voice. If you're a high-energy woman speaking English, the Spanish response matches that energy. After the first confident read, your voice profile is stored — the second conversation, it already knows you.

Pitch analysis Vocal energy Profile memory Manual override
Empathy Engine

Your tone, translated.

Voice matching handles the who. The Empathy Engine handles the how. It reads six real-time emotional dimensions in your voice and shapes the translated output to match — so the person on the other end hears not just your words, but your weight.

Pause density How often you stop and think
Vocal tremor Subtle shakiness signaling emotion
Onset sharpness How assertively each word begins
Dynamic range Quiet-to-loud variance
Rhythm regularity Steady pacing vs spontaneous
Sustained vowel ratio Flowing vs staccato delivery

"Language barriers aren't just about words — they're about connection. A doctor explaining a diagnosis, a parent calming a scared child, a business conversation where trust is everything: the emotional texture of how something is said matters as much as what is said."

Puente AI is the only translation app that treats your voice as a full human signal.

Our Story

44%

Built in Houston.
Built for Houston.

Houston is the most linguistically diverse city in America. 44% of residents speak a language other than English at home — taquerias, Harris Health clinics, Houston ISD classrooms, construction sites in Katy.

We built Puente AI because we live this every day. The app is tuned for the exact contexts Houston demands — medical vocabulary, legal register, job-site Spanish, bilingual family conversations.

FAQ

Questions people ask

How much does it cost?

Start free with 10 minutes of translation a day. Plus is $9.99/mo (300 minutes) and adds the linguistic premium — regional dialects, gender-correct speech, honorifics and profession vocabulary. Pro is $16.99/mo (1,200 minutes) and adds voice cloning. Prefer no subscription? A $2.99 Day Pass gives you 120 minutes, or add pay-as-you-go minute packs from $4.99.

What languages does it support?

130+ languages via cloud AI (DeepL Voice + Google Translate fallback). 8 languages work fully offline with no signal: English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Mandarin Chinese, and Japanese — powered by on-device Whisper AI.

Does it work without internet?

Yes. On-device Whisper AI keeps 8 languages running with zero signal — hospital basements, rural job sites, airplane mode. When you're back online, all 130+ languages switch in automatically.

What happens to my conversations?

They stay on your device. Puente AI does not store audio on any server — it's processed and discarded. Your transcripts and history live only on your phone. No account, no login, no data sold, no ads.

Can I use it for a group of people?

Yes. Group mode (Pro) places the phone in the center of the table. The ambient mic picks up all speakers, separates each voice using diarization, and assigns each person a unique label and language. Everyone sees live captions in their own language. Up to 8 people, one phone.

How accurate is it?

Puente AI uses DeepL Voice API — among the highest-accuracy engines available — with Google Translate as an automatic fallback. For specialized fields, Profession Packs add domain vocabulary so medical terms, legal language, and trade jargon are translated correctly from the first sentence. The AI also tracks the conversation as it unfolds and rewrites translations for natural speech — not just word-for-word.

Can my organization or clinic use it?

Yes. Puente AI offers bulk activation codes for hospitals, schools, law offices, and government agencies. One code activates Pro on any device. No user accounts, no MDM enrollment, no IT setup required. Contact us for bulk pricing.
