One Speaker, Many Listeners, Every Language

At a conference, a convention or a sales meeting, not everyone in the room shares a language. Speed Translate AI turns the speaker's words into live captions that each listener reads on their own phone.

How an event works

The speaker or the sound desk opens Speed Translate AI on one laptop, tablet or phone and starts listening. A QR code appears on screen. Listeners scan it with their phone camera and choose their own language, and the captions follow the speaker sentence by sentence. There is nothing for listeners to install, no account to create, and no headsets or receivers to hand out and collect.

Who it is for

Event producers, convention and show organizers, sales teams that meet customers who speak another language, hotels that host international groups, and any speaker whose audience does not share one language.

What organizers and listeners get

Everything below works today.

  • Live captions on each listener's phone through QR Code Join, with no app and no account
  • Up to 5 languages side by side for one speaker
  • 61 spoken languages and 123 written languages
  • Subtitles on a projector, or as an OBS overlay for a livestream
  • A saved transcript and AI notes after the session

How fast the captions appear

Captions of the speaker's own words appear as they speak, and each translated sentence follows a few seconds later. A faster mode that shows translations almost as the sentence ends is in testing.

Event pass prices

Every pass includes unlimited QR listeners. For comparison, human interpreters and live translation platforms such as Wordly cost about $150 an hour. Event passes are not on sale yet. You can start free today with 1 free hour every month, or tell us about your event and we will plan it with you.

  • Half day: $49 for 4 hours
  • Full day: $79 for 8 hours
  • Multi day event: $149 for up to 3 days

Do listeners need to install an app or make an account?

No. They scan the QR code with the phone camera and read the captions in the phone's browser, in the language they choose.

How many languages can one speaker be shown in?

Up to 5 languages can be shown side by side on the Subtitles screen. Listeners reading on their own phones each pick their own language.

Can the captions go on a big screen or a livestream?

Yes. The Subtitles screen can be shown on a projector or LED wall, and it can also be added to a livestream as an OBS overlay.

Can it replace a human interpreter at a large event?

It is a tool, not a person. Many organizers use it as the main way to reach every language in the room. For rare languages, legal proceedings or other high stakes sessions, keep a human interpreter alongside it.

Can I buy an event pass today?

Not yet. Event passes are planned, and the prices above are what we expect to charge. Until then you can start free, or contact us about your event and we will plan it with you.
