Brand Story
the Hitchhiker's Guide
to the Galaxy
babel fish
It all started when Leal Tian, the founder of the Timekettle was a science fiction fan. When he was a college student, he was impressed by one shot of babel fish in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, which drills into people's ears so that people of different languages can understand each other's conversations instantly.
After graduation, he often had to travel to different countries for work, and language barriers caused him much trouble. One day, a bright idea hit him, "Why don't we also create a product like babel fish, so that people of different languages can communicate with each other freely by simply putting it on? "Therefore, Timekettle was born.

"Since artificial intelligence demonstrated its significance in changing society, 99% of the companies focus their developments on the interaction between humans and machines. We chose a different path, and we chose the interaction between humans.

We believe that the importance of translating products lies not only in the technology but the whole interaction experience. No matter how society develops, or how machine and technology evolve, the eagerness of people to build intimacy to other people remain.

Our visionary concept differentiates Timekettle's focus from that of the average companies on the market, in both development direction and product design. We focus on the anxiety in different user scenarios, and how we can encourage people to communicate bravely in different languages. We do this by shaping its form to offer an unprecedented immersive experience into life and work, inspiring everyone to express, so that each conversation is natural and profound, this is our imagination of the future."
