Apate

Scammer's Time Waster

When a Scammer Calls...
The Apate Chat Bot will Respond! 

 Scammer audio is fed from our Asterisk server to the bot.

Our bot transcribes this audio in real time into text. 

Our bot relies on cutting edge conversational AI model to create a response based on what the scammer said. 

This response is converted into life-like human speech relying on advanced AI techniques for voice cloning with emotion modulation. 

The response audio is sent back to the scammer

As long as the scammer is convinced our bot is a potential victim, our bot will keep the conversation going...

Deployment Model

We aim to address the increasing public menace of phone scams through redirecting scam calls to conversational AI bots optimized to present convincing scam victims. Should a large proportion of scam calls be directed to these bots, much of a scammers time would be spent with the bots without profit, invalidating the scam business model and crippling the scammer ecosystem.
