Language availability depends on the AI/voice provider you connect. Support levels are estimates and can change. Original recordings are always preserved.

Languages and voice

  • Hearthsay is designed for multilingual families. Original recordings can be preserved in any language you choose to record. Automatic transcription, translation, and familiar voice playback depend on language support, provider availability, recording quality, and consent settings.
  • If familiar voice playback is not available for a language, Hearthsay will never fake certainty. It will preserve the original recordings, show transcripts and translations when available, and clearly label any fallback voice.
  • Hearthsay always preserves the original recording. AI voice playback depends on language, accent, provider support, consent, and recording quality.
