James – Your AI Friend

Golan Europe s.l

About this app

James is an AI companion you talk to out loud. Press one big button and speak, the way you would on the phone with a friend. James listens, answers in a warm natural voice and remembers what matters to you. No typing, no menus, nothing to learn.

WHAT JAMES CAN DO
• Talk with you by voice, in real time. Interrupt him, ask again, change the subject: it is a conversation, not a command line.
• Remember. Tell him about your grandchildren, your garden or the music you love, and next week he picks up where you left off. If he got something wrong, tell him and he forgets it.
• Speak your language: English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Hebrew and many more. Ask him to switch and he switches at once.
• Look things up from real sources: the weather, a pharmacy or library nearby, the answer to a question. If a source is not available he says so out loud instead of making something up.
• See, if you want him to. Turn on the camera and show him a plant, a photo or a letter. The camera stays off until you switch it on.
• Remind you about a pill time, a call or the stove, at the right moment.
• Check in once a day to ask how things are.
• Keep going with the screen off, like a phone call.

FOR OLDER PEOPLE
Company every day, without having to learn anything new. James listens to the same story twice without sighing, asks about the garden and the grandchildren, reads a real book or poem aloud a part at a time, and cooks with you step by step, reminding you about the stove. He speaks in short sentences and waits patiently for your answer.

FOR FAMILIES
A son, a daughter or a grandchild can set James up for someone they love. With the setup, James can write to the family member chosen at the start, says out loud when he does, and checks that the message arrived. If it did not, he says so instead of pretending help is on the way.

FOR PEOPLE LIVING WITH AN ILLNESS
James can change how he speaks: slower, one question at a time, clearer rather than louder. He takes worrying signs seriously and points to your doctor or the emergency number. He never says which medicine to take or how much, and he does not give diagnoses.

FOR STUDYING AND LEARNING
For students and anyone learning something new. Stuck on a problem? James will not hand you the answer to copy. He asks what you have tried, explains it another way and gives you the next step, so the thinking stays with you. Topics you worked on come back later, and he praises your effort rather than calling you clever. Read aloud with him, or practise a language by talking.

HOW JAMES IS BUILT
• A real-time voice AI model listens and speaks, so answers come as you talk.
• Long-term memory on our own dedicated server in Helsinki, inside the European Union. Audio is never saved as a file; only the text of what was said is kept, because that is how James remembers you.
• Facts about the real world come from real sources, not from a model guessing.
• No ads, no tracking, we do not sell data and we do not use your conversations to train models.

IMPORTANT
James is an AI, not a doctor, a teacher or a therapist, and not an emergency service. He does not replace your family, your friends or your doctor. In an emergency, call your local emergency number (112 in the European Union). This app is for adults (18+).
