# Audio Calls

### How Audio Calls Work

{% hint style="info" %}
Audio calls cost **50 moments per minute**. See [Moments & Payments](/extra/moments-and-payments.md).
{% endhint %}

Audio calls let you speak directly with your AI companion and hear their responses in real-time, creating a more immersive and natural conversation experience.

{% hint style="info" %}
All voice call audio is transcribed in real time, then immediately deleted. No voice data is ever stored. Only the transcription is kept, so your companion can remember the conversation like a normal chat.
{% endhint %}

#### The Audio Call Experience

* **Voice Input**: Speak naturally to your companion
* **Real-Time Processing**: Your companion processes and responds in real-time
* **Voice Output**: Hear your companion's voice responses
* **Natural Conversation**: Flow like a real phone call
* **Continuity**: Calls continue your current chat, like normal messages

#### Call Interface

**During Call**:

* **Microphone Indicator**: Shows when you're speaking
* **Processing Indicator**: Shows when companion is processing
* **Voice Output**: Hear companion's responses
* **Call Duration**: See how long you've been on call
* **End Call Button**: End the call anytime

#### Voice detection (auto-send)

Audio calls automatically send your message when you finish talking.

It listens while you speak, then waits for a short pause (silence). Once that pause is detected, it stops recording and sends your audio for transcription and a reply.

{% hint style="info" %}
Want to send instantly? Tap **Mute** when you’re done speaking. This stops mic pickup right away and triggers the send immediately.
{% endhint %}

### Group Voice Calls

{% hint style="info" %}
Group voice calls are currently **in beta**. We'd love your feedback!
{% endhint %}

Voice calls now work in **group chats** — talk to all your companions at once. Each companion takes turns responding, creating a dynamic multi-companion voice conversation.

#### How Group Voice Calls Work

* **Start a call** from any group chat using the call button
* **Speak naturally** — all companions in the group can hear you
* **Companions take turns** responding to you and to each other
* **Same cost**: 50 moments per minute, regardless of the number of companions
