Norwegian numbers · stored in the EEA

One API for SMS, calls and Norwegian speech-to-text

Norwegian numbers, published prices, audio that stays in the EEA.

One REST API. One OpenAPI contract. A TypeScript SDK where every field is typed. You never negotiate a carrier agreement or sit through a separate KYC round per vendor, because we already did that part.

Free tier. No card.

Interim results, final results, speaker labels and timestamps, streamed word by word. Hit the button and use your own microphone.

Sample

Starting a sample call …

Simulated transcript. Tap to use your own microphone.

This is the engine behind the API, not a recording.

Why telkit

Three problems you would otherwise solve separately

Norwegian language quality, EEA storage, and prices you can do the maths on up front.

All-in-one

One API for calls, transcription and SMS

A call can be recorded, transcribed while it runs and summarised once it ends. No wiring three vendors together to get there.

Built in, no add-ons
Recording and live transcriptBuilt in
Speaker separationIncluded
SummariesBuilt in
Data residency

The audio stays inside the EEA

Media is pinned to eu-central in Frankfurt, speech-to-text runs on EU endpoints, and recordings sit with Hetzner inside the EEA. That is contractual, not a toggle.

Pricing

Per second, in EUR, no platform fee

Voice bills per second from answer. Transcription bills per audio second rather than however long your WebSocket happened to stay open. Carrier fees are already in the rate.

€0Platform fee
For whoever integrates it

Built for the person writing the code

An idempotency key on every write, Ed25519-signed webhooks, and your remaining quota in the response headers.

  • OpenAPI 3.1

    One contract, never out of step with the API.

  • Typed SDK

    Generated from that contract. Autocomplete on every field.

  • Signed webhooks

    Every event carries an Ed25519 signature. Verify, then trust.

  • Idempotency

    Writes take an Idempotency-Key, so retrying is safe.

  • Price up front

    Ask what a call costs before you make it.

  • SSE streams

    Follow long jobs without polling.
