The new Truecaller Assistant aims to help you easily avoid scam calls

Truecaller today launched a new AI-powered assistant feature to help users combat the growing threat of scam calls. The feature answers incoming calls for you and provides a live transcript of what the caller says. This makes it easy for you to answer important calls from unknown numbers while avoiding scams.

Truecaller Assistant works a lot like the call screening feature of the Google Phone app. It uses machine learning, speech-to-text and natural language processing technologies to understand caller requests with over 90% accuracy. As mentioned earlier, it then provides live transcripts to help you know if you want to answer the call, mark it as spam, or ask the caller for more information.

Speaking about the new feature, Truecaller co-founder and CEO, Alan Mamedy, said, “Assist is a game changer in the global market because it does so much more than just block robocalls. So far, you’ve had to make a quick decision on whether you think the call is important. Assistant focuses on what the caller says to filter out bot calls and even spam. Know if the call is worth your time or not.”

What makes Truecaller Assistant better than the Google Phone call screening feature is that it is available on iOS and Android and does not require you to use a Google Pixel device. On the downside, it’s not free. Truecaller Assistant will initially be available for a 14-day free trial in the US

After the free trial, users will be able to access it as part of their Truecaller Premium subscription. Assistant currently supports calls in English, but Truecaller plans to add support for more languages ​​soon. The feature will be available in other regions as well. However, the company has not shared a tentative release schedule at this time.

It is worth noting that you can get Google phone call screening feature on any Android device Using this Magisk mod. If you want to give it a try, follow the instructions in our Magisk installation guide.
