For couples who don't share a first language.
Loving someone in another language shouldn't mean copy-pasting every message into a translator, or settling for the half of each other you can say in a shared third language. Espero lets you each write in your own language and read every message in yours — automatically, with the original always one tap away.
You each choose a reading language during setup. After that, you can type in your own language and your partner sees a translation in theirs without a copy-paste or manual Translate step. The original stays available for comparison.
Send a voice note and Espero transcribes and translates it: your partner hears you and reads what you said in their language. Photos work too — a handwritten note, a sign, a menu — read and described in yours.
Meeting the parents is hard enough without a language wall. Create a group and everyone writes in their own language and reads in theirs — so you're part of the conversation, not waiting to be translated.
Cloud-chat content is encrypted in transit and at rest on EU-hosted app servers and processed for delivery and translation. Eligible cloud messages may also receive semantic-search embeddings while that server feature is enabled; relevant eligible content is processed for AI features requested by an authorised participant. Content is not sold or used for advertising. Because cloud features require server-side processing, ordinary chats are not end-to-end encrypted. See the security model.
The best fit depends on platforms, privacy, languages and media. Espero is designed for couples who each want to write in their own language and read a reader-specific translation, with voice-note, photo and family-group features on iOS, Android and web.
Yes — voice notes are transcribed and translated, so your partner hears your voice and reads it in their language.
