> Video call anyone in their language. Create your account and send a link: no app and no account for them. Each person hears the other translated out loud, in their own language.

*Interlume · For families*

Create your account and send a link. No app, no account for them. They just talk.

Each of you speaks your own language and hears the other in yours, out loud. One switch turns translation off for an ordinary video call.

- **Abuela** (es): ¡Mi amor, cómo has crecido! -> ¡Abuela, se me cayó mi primer diente!
- **Maya** (en): Grandma, I lost my first tooth! -> My love, look how much you've grown!

## If you can send a message, you can set it up.

*01 · How it works*

1. **Start a call** — Open the Interlume website, start a call, and choose your language.
   - Start a call
2. **Send the link** — Share the invite link any way you like: WhatsApp, a text message, an email, or any other app.
   - Join my Interlume call (Interlume invite)
3. **They tap it** — The call opens in their phone's or computer's web browser. Nothing to download, no account to create.
   - Join call: Opens in the browser
4. **Talk** — Each person picks the language they want to hear. Then you just talk.

## Hear Grandma laugh. Understand the joke.

*02 · Hear them*

Captions are there if you want them, but Interlume is about hearing each other. The translation is spoken out loud and the other person's own voice drops down, so the translation is what you follow.

Original (pt) -> Translation (en)

1. **She tells a story** — Your grandmother tells a story in Portuguese, in her own voice. (Seu avô ficou uma hora procurando os óculos. Estavam na cabeça dele!)
2. **Her voice goes quiet** — As soon as the translation starts, her own voice drops down, so the translation is what you follow. (Seu avô ficou uma hora procurando os óculos. Estavam na cabeça dele! -> Your grandpa spent an hour looking for his glasses.)
3. **The story plays** — You hear the story in English, out loud, as she tells it. When you answer, she hears you in Portuguese the same way. (Seu avô ficou uma hora procurando os óculos. Estavam na cabeça dele! -> Your grandpa spent an hour looking for his glasses. They were on his head!)
4. **Switch it off** — Turn translation off, and it's an ordinary video call in your own voices. (Seu avô ficou uma hora procurando os óculos. Estavam na cabeça dele!)

## The calls that matter most.

*03 · Made for*

- **Grandparents and grandkids** — When the kids grow up speaking a different language than their grandparents.
- **In-laws** — For the first long conversation, not just a wave at the camera.

- Pricing may change before general availability.

## What families ask us.

*06 · Questions*

**Q: What is Interlume?**
Interlume is a video-calling app that translates both sides of the call out loud as people talk. Use it on the web now; it's coming soon to the App Store and Google Play. It's made by MinMax Holdings LLC.

**Q: Does the other person need to download anything?**
No. They tap the link you send, and the call opens in their phone's or computer's web browser. Guests don't need an account.

**Q: Can I use Interlume with WhatsApp?**
Interlume isn't part of WhatsApp. You can share an Interlume invite link in any chat, including WhatsApp, and the call happens in Interlume, in your browser.

**Q: Which languages does Interlume support?**
21: English, Spanish, Chinese, Ukrainian, Arabic, German, French, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Hindi, Russian, Italian, Turkish, Polish, Dutch, Hebrew, Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, and Filipino (Tagalog). Each person picks the language they want to hear.

**Q: Will I still hear their real voice?**
While translation is on, their own voice drops down and you hear the translation, with captions on screen. Either of you can turn translation off with one switch to hear your own voices. Call minutes continue counting in either mode.

**Q: Is a person translating?**
No. Interlume uses automated translation, and it tells everyone on the call. It can make mistakes, so don't rely on it for medical, legal, emergency, or financial decisions.

**Q: Is Interlume a replacement for Skype Translator?**
Microsoft retired Skype in May 2025. If you used Skype's translator to talk with family, Interlume is built for the same kind of call: video, with each person speaking their own language, and your guest joins from a link.

**Q: Does it work on iPhone and Android?**
Yes, on the web: Chrome on Android phones, Safari on iPhone, and Chrome or Edge on computers. Apps for the App Store and Google Play are coming soon.

**Q: How much does Interlume cost?**
On our website, Family is $12.99 a month for 75 call minutes, with translation included. A 50-minute pack is $9.99 without a subscription; Family subscribers can add 60 minutes for $9.99. Purchased minutes never expire. Family gets 60 bonus minutes once after 6 paid Family months in a row and 80 more once after 12 in a row. Minute packs don't count toward them. Whoever starts the call pays. Joining is always free. New accounts get 5 free call minutes for 3 days.

**Q: Do minutes count when translation is off?**
Yes. Your minutes cover the connected video call, with translation available when you need it. One minute of a two-person call uses one host minute, whether translation is on or off. You can keep using the translation switch.

**Q: What happens when my minutes run low?**
The host sees a warning at 3 minutes remaining and a reminder at 1 minute. They can choose a top-up and confirm payment while the call stays connected. Once payment is confirmed, the extra minutes are added. If the available balance reaches zero, the call ends. We do not automatically buy more minutes for you.

Interlume is in early access. Leave your email below, and we'll write when your spot opens.
