Send anything. Get an answer.

Words aren't the only way to ask. Forward a message or snap a photo — Orakyl reads it and explains in plain English or Hindi.

Photos in

A label, a notice, a forward — anything

A bank notice. A medicine label. A WhatsApp forward you're not sure about. Send it across and Orakyl explains what it says.

What does this say?
It's a notice from your bank. Your debit card expires on June 30. They want you to visit the branch with ID proof to get a new one.
Forwarded many times
“RBI is replacing all 500 rupee notes by next month, share with everyone…”
Is this WhatsApp forward true?
No. The claim about RBI changing currency notes is fake. The same message has been circulating since 2023 — RBI has not made that announcement.

Don't know how to do something on your phone or laptop?

Ask Orakyl.

No more waiting for your kids to come home. No more “sorry, silly question.” Orakyl explains in plain words, as many times as you need, and never makes you feel slow.

How do I forward a WhatsApp message to many people at once?
My laptop screen is too small — can I make the text bigger?
I keep getting this pop-up. What does it mean?
How do I save a photo someone sent me on WhatsApp?

Stop doing this. Start doing this.

Small, daily annoyances most of us put up with — that don't need to be annoyances anymore.

  • Instead of

    Calling your daughter to ask how to do something on your phone

    Try this

    Just ask Orakyl. It explains in plain words, as many times as you need.

  • Instead of

    Forwarding messages to five cousins to check if it's true

    Try this

    Send the forward to Orakyl first. It tells you if it's real or fake.

  • Instead of

    Missing your medicine because nobody reminded you

    Try this

    Tell Orakyl once. It pings you on time, every day, for life.

  • Instead of

    Typing into Google and getting ten ads before the answer

    Try this

    Just ask in plain words. You get the answer, no ads, no clutter.

  • Instead of

    Downloading yet another app to do one small thing

    Try this

    Stay in WhatsApp. Orakyl handles it without a new login or icon.

Why we built it inside WhatsApp.

New apps mean new logins, new icons, new things to forget. We thought a personal assistant should just live where you already are.

Already on your phone

Nothing to download. Nothing to set up. It works in the WhatsApp you already use.

Type the way you talk

No special commands or magic words. Just say what you mean.

One place for everything

Reminders, your calendar, search, directions — all in the same chat window.

Family-friendly

Works the same way on every phone. Easy for anyone to start using.

Common worries, quick answers.

The questions most people ask before they get started.

Can I just talk in Hindi?

Yes — even mix Hindi and English in one sentence. Orakyl understands both.

Do I need to learn special commands?

No. Talk like you would to a person. There are no codes or buttons.

Will it remember what I told it last week?

Yes — anything you ask it to remember stays. Things you ask it to forget go.

Can I send pictures?

Yes. Bills, prescriptions, notices, screenshots — Orakyl reads and explains.

Will anyone else see my chats?

No. Your chat is yours alone. Family and friends can't peek in.

What if I forget how to do something?

There's nothing to forget. Just ask. Orakyl meets you wherever you are.

Stuck? Try one of these.

If you don't know where to start, copy any of these. There's no wrong question.

What's a polite WhatsApp reply to say no?
Remind me to take my walk every morning at 6.
Read this medicine label out loud for me.
Find a vegetarian restaurant near me.
Translate this English email into Hindi.
Plan a 2-day trip to Mysore.
What's a sweet message for my anniversary?
Summarise this WhatsApp video in 3 lines.
Is this email from my bank a scam?

Ready when you are.

It takes about 30 seconds. No app, no fuss.
