TACET | Stick it in when you don't wanna talk.

Phones are smart

But also stupid. We have rovers on Mars and AI that can pass the Bar exam. Yet, when your phone rings, you are still forced to use your actual mouth to make noises at people.

The villains

Long, long time ago, Apple and Google decided you weren't to be trusted with your own call audio. They walled it off so that it was impossible for app developers to touch the live stream. Eventually, everyone learned to live with this, until…

The hack

Tacet is a tiny, sexy, mid-century modern USB device. It creates a physical bridge between the call and our but also any other app people will start making.

It tricks the phone into handing over the raw audio. It’s not a permission slip, but rather a permanent bypass, because it relies on carefully selected paths which our villains can't afford to block.

How it works

1. Stick it in
Plug your Tacet into your USB-C port.
2. Phone gets duped
The OS thinks it's a headset. It hands over the audio.
3. Our app gets poked
It waits for the call and grabs the audio back from the device and feeds it to the AI.
4. Silence
The AI talks. You don't.

The Killer Feature

Let the AI take the heat.

Your boss calls at 5 PM on a Friday? Stick it in.

You stay silent. The AI answers, negotiates, and takes a message.
You stay sane. Screen spam, dodge exes, make appointments, or navigate customer support hell without lifting a finger.
Real-time. No awkward satellite-delay pauses. Just fluid conversation.

Open Platform

We built the hardware. You build the rest. Tacet is fully documented and open.

For Devs

Build a real-time translator. A transcriber for the deaf. Or something that scares us. The stream is yours again.

Legal?

It's a tool. Like a hammer. You can hit a nail, or you can hit someone's head.
