Does my audience need to install an app?
No. They open a link in the browser already on their phone, choose a language, and read. There is no account and nothing to download.
AI live translation & captions for events
Live translation for events,
on every phone and screen.
Someone speaks. Captions appear on the screen at the front and on every phone in the room, in whichever language each person picks. Nothing to hand out, and nothing for your audience to install.
A$10 of free credit when you sign up, no credit card needed, and A$10 more when you add a card. Credit never expires — use it this week or next year. The free credit alone is roughly 9 hours of live captions in one language.
Live captions: A$1.05 per hour, per language (Australian dollars; US$0.70 per hour or €0.60 per hour for accounts billed in those currencies). No monthly fee, no charge per listener.

Audio in, translation out.
You send us the sound from your event. Our servers translate it. It comes back on every phone in the room, on the screen at the front, and on your stream.
Step one
You send us the audio
Two ways to do it. Use whichever suits the room.
From a sound desk
The Windows app takes the signal straight off the mixer, on any Windows PC or laptop at the desk.
From a browser
Any computer, tablet or phone that opens a browser — Windows, Mac, iPhone, iPad or Android. Nothing to install on any of them.
Step two
Our servers translate it
- Audio to text
- Text into every language chosen
- Text back into speech
Served from the region nearest your venue.
AU · EU · US
Step three
-
Every phone
Each person reads in the language they chose, in their own browser.
-
The room screen
Captions sized for a room, in the colours the venue picked.
-
Your live stream
A caption band over the video, as a browser source in OBS, vMix or similar.
-
Audio translation
Spoken in their language, in the voice you chose for the venue, through the headphones already in their pocket.
Three places the words can appear
One person speaks, and the same words reach all three together.

Languages
Sixty languages.
Any one into any other.
60 languages for captions and translation, any one into any other. What the room speaks is the operator’s choice and can change mid-event. What each person reads is their own.
Spoken in English
If you need anything at all during the day, simply ask any one of us.
Read in Spanish
Si necesitan cualquier cosa durante el día, simplemente pregúntenos a cualquiera de nosotros.

What live translation for events actually looks like
One person speaks. What they say is transcribed, translated, and put in front of everyone else as each sentence finishes — on the phones they already carry, on the screen at the front of the room, over the stream going out to people who are not in the building, and as spoken audio for anyone who would rather listen than read.
There are no receivers to hand out and count back in at the end, no booth to build, and nobody has to download anything. The person running it needs one computer at the desk and the audio feed that already goes to the speakers. A laptop browser is enough to start with; a direct feed from the mixer through the Windows app is better, and is what most rooms settle on once they have run it a few times.
It is used where a room does not share one first language — conferences and AGMs, council and community meetings, staff briefings and inductions, lectures and information evenings, and services in congregations with members who arrived speaking something else. The room is different every time. The setup is not.
No monthly fee. You pay for the minutes you run.
Most organisations need translation for a few hours a week, and a subscription makes them pay for the other hundred and sixty. You are charged for the time you actually run, in the languages people actually chose. No language slots to buy, nothing counted per seat, and credit you have paid for never expires — run one event a year and it is still there.
Captions are charged by the hour, for each language someone is actually listening in. Spoken audio is charged by the minute. Live rates in every currency we bill in, and a calculator for your own event are on the pricing page.
-
No lock-in contract
Nothing recurring, and nothing to cancel. Buy the time you need, when you need it.
-
No minimum
Run nothing this month and you pay nothing this month. There is no floor to clear.
-
Credit never expires
Top up once and use it this month or next year. There is no billing period for it to lapse at the end of.
-
Compare us on price
Price your event wherever you like, then work the same event out here. We are very comfortable being compared.
Before you start
A few good questions.
Not sure what your room needs? We can help you work it out.
Talk to usWhat do we need in the room to run it?
One computer at the desk and the audio feed you already send to the speakers. A laptop browser is enough to start; a direct feed from the mixer through the Windows app is better.
How many people can listen at once?
There is no per-person charge and no cap to buy. Ten listeners or a thousand cost the same.
What happens if nobody picks a language?
Nothing is produced in it, and nothing is charged for it. Apart from your main caption language, which runs while you are live, a language only runs while somebody is actually using it.
Can people listen instead of reading?
Yes, through the same link, into their own earphones. In a room they will need something in their ears, or they will hear the speaker and the translation at the same time. The voice they hear is your choice: pick one of about two hundred in the venue settings and listen to it before the day.
Is there a monthly fee?
No. You are charged for the hours you actually run. A quiet month costs nothing.
Does credit expire if we do not use it?
No. Credit stays on your account until you use it, whether that is next week or next year. There is no monthly allowance that resets, so nothing is lost by running fewer events.
Try it in your own room.
Start a session with your own microphone and your own languages, and see what the room sees.
A$10 of free credit when you sign up, no credit card needed, and A$10 more when you add a card. Credit never expires — use it this week or next year.
