Who it's for

01
Family & Friends

Set up a wire for the family, the group trip, the weekend. Anyone with the link can hop on. Leave it open in the background and check in whenever. Someone talks, you hear it. If not — nothing but quiet.

02
Teams & Coordinators

Church security, event staff, volunteer crews — anyone running point on a busy day. Low-latency push-to-talk with a Lock Screen widget and Live Activity so the talk button is always one tap away. No radios, no hardware.

03
Wire Captions

Live on-screen transcription of every transmission — read along as people talk. Works with hearing aids over Bluetooth, AirPods, wired headphones, or your phone's own speaker. Built for a family member with near-total hearing loss.

Simple as a walkie-talkie.
Always in your pocket.

01
Pick a callsign & wire name

Choose whatever name you want — it's not checked against anything, like a handle on a CB radio. Name your wire, share the link, and anyone with it can join.

02
Hold to talk

Press and hold the big button. Talk. Release when you're done. That's the whole thing. Keep it open in the background and your wire stays live.

03
Laser Beam when it matters

On a busy wire, press and hold the scope icon next to any name to transmit directly to that one person. Only they hear you — everyone else stays quiet.

Every word.
In real time.

Wire Captions transcribes every transmission live — speaker by speaker, word by word. Read along as people talk. Works with any audio setup: hearing aids paired over Bluetooth, AirPods, wired headphones, or the phone's own speaker.

We built this for a family member with near-total hearing loss. It works the way he actually uses his phone.

Speech recognition runs entirely on your device. Audio is never sent to Apple, to us, or to anyone else. This is intentional design, not a limitation.

the wire.

Free to download. No account, no subscription to start. Invite your crew and open your first wire in under two minutes.

No ads. No tracking. No account required. Free to download and free to use — premium features for power users are coming, but we're not building a paywall around the basics.
