We believe that phone calls should be secure, engaging, and void of fraud & robocalls. We believe that the phone app is the most outdated app on your smartphone, that the phone network is the largest social network in the world, and that phone calls lack a trust and engagement layer. You should know who is calling you and why! You should get the calls that are relevant to you—at that time—and none of the calls that are not.

Hiya is building and improving a modern software layer to enhance the phone call experience. We already serve over 100 million users worldwide directly through our apps and in partnership with mobile device makers like Samsung and telecom carriers like AT&T.

Are you ready to join and help us scale to serve over 1 billion users?
