Delight over utility
What you get
BORK was built for exactly this.
The core features that make BORK different from the generic alternatives.
Bark-to-sentence translation
Tap to capture a bark and BORK turns it into a funny, contextual human line — built for a laugh, not a lab report.
Shareable moment cards
Every translation becomes a clean little card you can save or send to the group chat in two taps.
Emergent personality
The more moments you log, the more your dog's on-screen 'voice' develops its own running character.
Two-tap capture
Open and log in under two taps, so a zoomie or a doorbell bark is caught before it's gone.
Private by default
Moments live on your device and sync through your own iCloud — there's no public feed and no account required to start.
Free to start
Logging and translating are free; an optional subscription unlocks unlimited history and extras.
