“Whisper for Voice”

Hearium Inc., the company behind Hear - Anonymously Talk & Listen was founded by Sterling Toth, the co-creator of EpicMealTime. Hear: an app that allows you to connect to people anonymously and talk to them. The added twist is that a large group of other anonymous users can also drop in on ongoing conversations and listen. This provides users a unique experience where people can anonymously express themselves to another person, while multiple people can listen in and enjoy and/or learn from those conversations. Listeners are always muted so they cannot interrupt the ongoing conversation. The reason we choose voice over written posts is that when you speak about your problems using your voice it gives you a sense of relief. Especially if you can say it out loud anonymously when you can’t express yourself to your family or friends. Writing it down doesn’t offer that same feeling. Hear adds a new dimension to the idea by having voice chats where you can truly express your emotions.
