What is an AI conversation copilot?

An AI conversation copilot is a tool that analyzes your conversations in real time and provides live coaching tips, tone detection, smart suggestions, and actionable insights. Tonvo works during calls on Discord, Zoom, Google Meet, and other platforms to help you communicate more effectively.

Does Tonvo work during live calls?

Yes, Tonvo works in real time during live calls. It captures audio from your microphone and system audio (Discord, Zoom, Meet), transcribes the conversation, and provides instant coaching tips, tone analysis, and smart suggestions while you speak.

How does Tonvo analyze conversations?

Tonvo uses a multi-step AI pipeline: (1) Real-time audio transcription with speaker separation, (2) Tone and emotion detection using Claude AI, (3) Conversation signal detection (objections, opportunities, hesitation), (4) Live coaching suggestions, (5) Quality and engagement scoring. It also analyzes screen content for additional context.

Is Tonvo free to use?

Yes, Tonvo offers a free plan with 3 sessions per month including real-time tone analysis and basic suggestions. The Pro plan at $19/month (or $182/year with 20% off) unlocks unlimited sessions, advanced AI coaching, screen analysis, and full session history.

What languages does Tonvo support?

Tonvo supports 10 languages: English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Both the interface and conversation analysis work across all supported languages with automatic detection.

Is my conversation data secure?

Tonvo takes privacy seriously. All conversation data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Audio is processed in real time and not permanently stored. We never sell or share your data with third parties. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

Can other people see the AI copilot during screen sharing?

Tonvo opens the copilot in a separate browser window. When you share a specific application window (like Discord or Zoom) instead of your entire screen, the copilot window remains invisible to other participants. This makes it perfect for sales calls and interviews.

What is conversation signal detection?

Conversation signal detection is Tonvo's AI feature that identifies key moments during a call: objections from the other person, opportunities to close, hesitation, agreement, and important questions. Each signal is highlighted in real time so you can react immediately.

Why Choose Tonvo

Coaching, Not Just Recording

While Fireflies captures what was said, Tonvo helps you communicate better in the moment with actionable real-time suggestions.

Live Conversation Signals

Detect engagement drops, confusion, hesitation, and other conversation signals as they happen so you can respond immediately.

Zero Audio Retention

Tonvo never stores your audio. Analysis happens live and audio data is discarded, eliminating storage and compliance concerns.

Invisible Copilot Mode

Tonvo runs silently in the background without other participants knowing, preserving natural conversation dynamics.

Transcription vs Real-Time Intelligence

Fireflies is an excellent choice if your primary need is meeting transcription, searchable notes, and post-meeting summaries. Tonvo is the better fit if you want real-time coaching, live tone awareness, and conversation signal detection that helps you perform better during the call itself. Many users find the two tools complementary rather than mutually exclusive.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Tonvo also transcribe meetings like Fireflies?

Tonvo focuses on real-time coaching, tone analysis, and conversation signals rather than full transcription. It provides post-session analysis summaries, but its primary value is in-the-moment guidance, not verbatim transcripts.

Can Fireflies provide live coaching during a call?

No. Fireflies is designed for automated note-taking and transcription. It generates summaries and action items after the meeting, but does not offer real-time coaching or live sentiment analysis.

Which tool is better for improving my communication skills?

Tonvo is built specifically for this. Its real-time tone detection and coaching suggestions help you adjust how you communicate as the conversation happens, which is more actionable than reviewing a transcript afterward.

Does Fireflies store my call recordings?

Yes, Fireflies records and stores audio for transcription. Tonvo takes a privacy-first approach and never stores audio data. If data privacy is a priority, this is an important distinction.
