How landline translation works

  1. 1

    Get a TalkTool number — keep your landline

    Sign up and claim a dedicated TalkTool number, or forward your existing landline. Nothing about your current phone setup has to change.

    • Keep your existing landline and number
    • Live in under 5 minutes
    • No hardware to install
  2. 2

    Share the number or forward your line

    Give the TalkTool number to non-English-speaking customers, or forward your landline so incoming calls route through translation automatically.

  3. 3

    Everyone hears their own language

    Your team speaks English and the caller hears their language — and vice versa — in real time. You also get a live bilingual transcript and an AI summary of every call.

    • Caller answers a normal phone call
    • Live bilingual transcript
    • AI summary after every call
