안녕하세요, 택배 이미 도착했나요? 오늘 엄마 집에 있어요.
오후 2시에서 4시 사이에 도착 예정입니다. 집에 계실까요?
It's coming between 2 and 4 pm. Is anyone home?

Maswali yanayoulizwa mara kwa mara
Is AI Call SMS a real phone number?
Yes — it's a real US or Canada number capable of sending and receiving SMS with any carrier globally, including Korean carriers (KT, SK Telecom, LG U+). It is not a third-party chat app; the recipient just gets a normal text message.
Does the Korean recipient need anything installed?
No. They receive a normal SMS in Korean on their regular phone, like any other text. Only you need AI Call.
What is tone polish?
Before sending, tone polish lets you adjust the feel of the Korean output — polite business tone, friendly casual, formal respectful. This solves the biggest problem of direct translation: sounding unnatural or too stiff.
Can I use this for Korean customer service SMS flows?
Yes. Many Korean services (delivery, banks, utilities) send confirmation codes and status updates by SMS. With AI Call SMS you receive them translated into English so you understand exactly what is happening.
Does this work for other languages, not just Korean?
Yes. AI Call SMS supports two-way auto-translation in 100+ languages. The same flow works for Japanese, Chinese, Spanish, French, and every other supported language.
