The team behind 100 million voice notes
We're on a mission to make feedback faster, more personal, and actually heard. Since 2013, educators worldwide have trusted us to do just that.
Our Story
Talk & Comment started in 2013 with a simple question: why does written feedback take so long and say so little?
Eleven years later, educators in 160 countries have sent over 100 million voice notes—giving feedback that students actually hear, in a fraction of the time.
Today, we're a distributed team building the future of voice-first feedback from Oakland, California. We serve teachers, instructional coaches, and business teams who believe that communication should feel human, even when it's digital.
Our Mission
We believe the best feedback is feedback that gets heard. Not skimmed. Not ignored. Actually heard.
Our mission is to help educators and teams communicate with the tone, nuance, and warmth that only voice can deliver—without the scheduling overhead of calls or the production time of video.
Our Values
Educator-First
Teachers are our north star. Every feature, every decision, starts with "does this help educators help their students?"
Simplicity
Record. Share. Done. We obsess over removing friction so you can focus on what matters: the message.
Privacy & Trust
FERPA and COPPA compliant from day one. Your voice notes are yours. We don't train AI on your data.
Accessible by Default
AI transcripts, translations in 40+ languages, and a free tier that's actually useful. Voice feedback should be available to everyone.
Why Voice?
5x Faster
Speaking is naturally faster than typing. Teachers save 5+ hours per week on feedback.
More Personal
Tone and encouragement come through. Students hear you care—because they literally hear you.
Actually Heard
89% replay rate. Voice feedback doesn't get skimmed—it gets listened to and acted on.
