Speak with History
Give your heritage a voice
The great sweep of History or your own company's memory.
Your visitors scan a QR code and hold a spoken conversation with a character brought to life. On their own phone, in their own language, with nothing to download.
French · English · German — around the clock, no app
Listen to them.
Three of the voices now in service, exactly as they are. Nothing was re-recorded for this page — no retouching, no editing: these are the very voices your visitor will hear.
Your visitors are not listening to a recording: they ask their questions out loud, and the character answers them.
The voices in this excerpt are speaking French. Every HistoVox character speaks French, English and German natively — the same character, the same voice, answering each visitor in their own language. It is included in every package, never charged as an option.
Three gestures, one encounter
A visitor, a customer or a member of staff scans a QR code placed on site and starts a real conversation. They ask their questions; the character answers — with its own voice, its own temperament and its own memory.
Ask him your questions.
The Archivist is our ambassador. He answers out loud whatever you want to know about HistoVox: how it works, what it costs, what could be done with your site. This is not a recorded demo — it is the system itself answering you.

- Speak — he answers
No app to install. Visitors' questions are never kept — we count the number of exchanges, nothing else.
One system, three uses
Local authorities & heritage
Give a voice to heritage that goes unnoticed. Interpretation available at all hours, in three languages, on a monument, a site or a trail — where until now there was only a plaque nobody reads.
Museums & private sites
Offer a visit that stands apart. Your visitors talk — aloud or in writing — with the figures who belong to your site, and come back to ask more.
Companies
Entrust your memory to a voice: the founder's story, the welcome given to new employees, one-to-one training. Someone available at all hours, who never tires of explaining.
The care is in the detail
Every character is tuned by ear, sentence by sentence, and validated by a speech and language therapist.
Safeguards keep the character inside its role and inside its period. It does not step outside them.
You define its temperament, its knowledge, its period. We write it and give it a voice.
Aloud and in writing, in French, English and German. No app, no account, no installation.
Artificial intelligence, voices and data: hosted and processed within the European Union.
Your visitors' questions are never recorded. We measure anonymous footfall, and nothing more.
For a local authority, most of the cost can be covered by grants
Heritage development and digital interpretation qualify for several French funding schemes, which can be drawn on separately or together depending on the project and the area.
We build the application with you — technical documents, project description, budget and timetable. This is work we know well, and we take it on as part of our public-sector packages.
Rates and eligibility depend on the project, the area and the review of the application. We do not guarantee that funding will be granted, and we undertake never to promise you any.A small team, in Alsace
We design every character ourselves and tune every voice by ear. You deal with one person, from the first meeting to going live — and that person is the one who writes your character.
Product design, character writing and client project management. Your direct contact.
Business development across Alsace and the Grand Est. Local roots and first-hand knowledge of the region, its municipalities and their heritage projects.
A speech and language therapist validates the clarity, pace and listening quality of every character before it goes into service.
A place, a heritage, a story waiting to speak?
Let's talk about your project. Together we look at the site, the character and the uses — and we demonstrate it out loud, on site or by video call.
