TolkChat as a professional alternative to SayHi in healthcare
Since SayHi shut down in September 2024, TolkChat has offered a healthcare-specific alternative for secure, multilingual medical translation.
Language barriers are an everyday reality in healthcare. For years, healthcare professionals often turned to general translation apps such as SayHi, but since it shut down in September 2024, that familiar tool has disappeared. The need for fast and reliable translation remained.
A medical conversation is fundamentally different from an everyday conversation: choice of words, context and interpretation have a direct impact on diagnosis, treatment and patient safety. General consumer apps are not built for this and offer no guarantees of medical accuracy, no integration with the EHR and often little clarity about data processing.
Wellcom’s TolkChat fills that gap with a healthcare-specific alternative. Like SayHi, it uses a familiar turn-by-turn conversation format, but it has been developed for healthcare: real-time translation of speech and text in 90+ languages and dialects, developed with GDPR compliance as its starting point and with the option of integration with the EHR.
Healthcare organisations can request a demo of TolkChat and then use it on a pay-per-use basis. Take a look at the platform.
