Ask me anything related to the technology/revenue and whatnot...

On the first page, there's the claim: Encrypted Calls All calls are encrypted with TLS 1.2+ for signaling and SRTP with AES-128 for audio. Your conversations stay private during transmission. This can only be true on your (Voklit) end between the client and the server, it stops being encrypted both from signalling and audio perspective the moment it hits the PSTN in any country on any network. I would consider re-phr…

You are right, I will change that now so I don't mislead users.

Thanks for flagging this.

Loved it, it's amazing. Few questions How many developers developed it? How much time it took? You started earning? How are you advertising? Why not people call from there phone for international call?

In Canada, my provider charges 0.60cad/minute to Europe.

Voklit : 0.05$ / minute

Could you display the rate in local currencies or at least show the actual currency in ISO ?

I'm guessing that the price in $ is USD but as we also have $ in Canada, it can be misleading, especially when 1USD~=1.35CAD

Nice! Do you plan integrations with teams and other apps?

If you just want to use a Voklit number for meetings, you can already: - Set your Voklit number as caller ID when dialing out - Forward calls to your Teams/Zoom meeting dial-in

That's easy.

If you mean enterprise support, that's on the grid, if I have enough money to quit and focus / hire for Voklit. I would do that.

Countries like Germany start at $ 0.0147 / min
