Close company. Clear answers.

Clara is an AI voice companion with an expressive, synthetic voice. She’s made for thinking out loud, following a tangent, and enjoying a conversation.

No. Clara is an AI companion with a synthetic voice. She can be warm and expressive, but she isn’t a person, a therapist, a doctor, a lawyer or an emergency service. If you’re in crisis, contact your local emergency services.

Yes. Talk over her and she stops mid-sentence and listens, the way a person would. She waits while you think, and she’ll cut in when she has something to say.

Two people. No investors, no ads. Clara is operated by Signal Market Intelligence Incorporated in Canada, and every pass goes to the GPU servers she runs on and the time it takes to build her.

Not yet. Custom local builds, set up for you and running on your own hardware, are one of the ideas founding members can vote on after the beta. See the roadmap.

Open Clara in your browser and choose Talk or Type. Talk uses your microphone; Type lets you write while Clara replies with voice and captions. You can switch during the same call. An internet connection is required.

No. Clara runs in your browser. Headphones are recommended when you talk by voice.

About three minutes, with no account and no sign-in. Trials are subject to capacity and fair-use limits, including a limited number of trials per network address over a rolling period, so a shared network may share that limit.

Calls connect when a line is available. If every line is busy, you’ll see a message and can try again shortly. For signed-in accounts, time spent waiting in the queue doesn’t use your minutes.

On paid calls, a short connection drop can reconnect to the same conversation. That covers brief interruptions, not refreshing or closing the page. If the call can’t recover, you’ll see how to start again.

Up to 30 minutes of connected conversation time each day, with no payment needed. The allowance resets on the published daily schedule. Memory stays off on free calls.

A one-time USD $19 purchase for unlimited conversation time for 30 days after your payment is confirmed. It’s not a subscription. One active call at a time, subject to availability, with optional browser memory. See the Founding pass.

Paid calls have no minute cap while your pass is active. If your pass was bought on the old beta site, link it from the same browser, then sign in.

If we can’t provide the access you bought, we’ll refund the purchase. Chargebacks or full refunds may end the pass. Your non-waivable consumer rights still apply. Details are in the Terms.

No. Optional support contributions help cover server costs and development, but they don’t buy access, minutes or other benefits unless we clearly say otherwise at checkout.

Not on trial or free calls: those aren’t saved as long-term memory. With the Founding pass you can turn on optional browser memory. Your notes stay in that browser until you clear them, and they’re sent to Clara during later calls only while memory is on.

A guest trial doesn’t add your chat to a lasting profile. Working data and operational logs are kept only while reasonably needed to run and secure the service, then deleted or anonymized. The Privacy Policy has the specifics.

We don’t sell personal information, and we don’t share it for cross-context advertising. We don’t use guest-trial conversations to train foundation models.

Only the ones needed to run Clara: sign-in, Founding checkout and security. No advertising or analytics cookies today.

Send a privacy request. Tell us the email you used, if any, and roughly when you used Clara. We may need to confirm you control that email first.

Adults 18 and older (or the age of majority where you live, if higher).

Email [email protected]. For a payment or access issue, include your checkout email and roughly when you paid, and never send card details. For a call issue, include roughly when it happened and your browser. We read every note.
