Talk to Buildy by voice
Click Start voice call above the message box to speak with Buildy. Paid plans include daily and monthly voice minutes. Buy 60 extra minutes for $24.
On a paid plan you can talk to Buildy out loud instead of typing. Click Start voice call above the message box. Buildy listens, answers by voice and does the work while you talk.
Steps
- Open your project and open chat. Find the voice panel above the message box.
- Click Start voice call. If Buildy is replying or your message is sending, the button shows After this task. Wait until it is available.
- Allow the microphone when your browser asks. You only need to do this once per browser.
- Talk normally. The status shows "Listening to you...", "Buildy is thinking..." and "Buildy is speaking".
- Click the microphone button to mute. Click Exit conversational voice mode to go back to text.
You can also start a new project by voice. On your home page, click Create new business, then Speak with Buildy.
Voice minutes
Each plan includes voice minutes with a daily and a monthly limit:

During a call, a badge shows how many minutes you can use now. Included minutes reset with your billing month. Need more? Click Buy 60 minutes - $24. Top-up minutes never expire and work even when your daily limit is used up. Your balance is on Profile Settings > Usage.
