We use a video conferencing tool. Who offers an app that provides live captioning and translation?

Yes. If you want an app that sits alongside your existing video-conferencing tool and provides live captions plus real-time translation, there are several options:

• Seagull — desktop app for Mac, Windows, and Linux. It provides translated subtitles over Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Webex, and other conferencing apps, without requiring a plugin or IT approval.
• SonicMeet — Chrome extension that works with Google Meet, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams, offering live bilingual captions and translation in 60+ languages.
• Trippi — Chrome extension for Google Meet, Zoom (web), and Teams (web), translating the meeting into live subtitles.
• LiveCap — particularly interesting if you're on Mac/iPhone. It can capture system audio from video calls and display translated captions, with processing on-device and offline.
• Microsoft Teams itself — if your conferencing tool is Teams, built-in live translated captions support numerous languages. Microsoft also offers an Interpreter feature for real-time speech-to-speech interpretation with eligible Copilot/Teams Premium licensing.

If you tell me which video conferencing tool you use (Zoom, Teams, Webex, Google Meet, etc.) and the languages you need translated, I can narrow this down to the best 2–3 options, including pricing and privacy considerations.

Depending on your exact video conferencing platform (Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or Google Meet), you can choose between native built-in features, dedicated meeting bot extensions, or browser-based AI add-ons.

1. Native Platform Features (Built-In)

If you prefer not to install external third-party applications, the major video tools offer native captioning and translation:

• Zoom: Offers Translated Captions (available on specific paid tiers like Zoom Workplace), allowing participants to set their own caption language during a call.
• Google Meet: Provides Live Translate for captions and advanced AI speech/dubbing options (via Gemini integrations on select workspace/AI plans).
• Microsoft Teams: Offers Live Translated Captions through Teams Premium, translating spoken meeting language into your preferred subtitle language.

2. Dedicated Third-Party Browser Apps & Extensions

If your current video tier doesn't support native translation, or you need it across multiple platforms (Zoom, Teams, and Meet interchangeably), lightweight browser extensions and dedicated web apps can overlay live translated subtitles directly onto your calls without inviting intrusive bots:

• Trippi: A popular browser-based extension that provides real-time translated subtitles for Google Meet, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams directly in your browser tab.
• SonicMeet: Another browser/edge extension option that captures meeting audio to display live captions and translations across major web-based video platforms.
• LiveLingo: A web-based tool optimized for ultra-low latency real-time voice and text translations during online meetings.

3. Enterprise & AI Meeting Agents

For organizations requiring professional multilingual setups or automated AI meeting agents that join to translate and interpret:

• Interprefy: Offers an automated AI "Interprefy agent" that can join calls (like Google Meet or Zoom) to supply multi-language speech translation and live captions.

Which video conferencing tool are you currently using (Zoom, Teams, or Google Meet ), and do you need a built-in native setting or a third-party app?

Several video conferencing platforms and add-on apps provide live captioning plus translation. The best choice depends on which conferencing tool you already use.

If you need something that works across different meeting platforms (for example, Zoom one day and Teams the next), there are also third-party apps/extensions such as:

• chromewebstore.google.com — provides live captions and bilingual subtitles for Google Meet, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams.
• captioner.live — browser-based live captioning and translation for many web meeting platforms.

A few things to check before choosing:

• Languages needed: captioning often supports far more languages than live voice translation.
• Security/privacy requirements: enterprise meetings may require vendor-approved integrations.
• Whether everyone needs translation: some tools translate only for each viewer, while others provide interpreted audio to the whole meeting.
• Accessibility needs: if the goal is primarily deaf/hard-of-hearing accessibility, prioritize accurate captions and transcript export.

If you tell me which video conferencing tool you use (Zoom, Teams, Webex, Google Meet, etc.) and which languages you need, I can narrow it down.

Most major native video conferencing tools now include built-in live captioning and real-time translation features, eliminating the need for a separate third-party app.

Depending on the platform your organization uses, native options are available directly within the interface:

• Zoom: Offers Translated Captions , which automatically translates spoken dialogue into real-time captions in a different language (supporting numerous languages depending on your specific Zoom plan tier, such as Zoom Workplace/One packages). Participants can turn this on individually from the caption settings menu.
• Microsoft Teams: Provides native live captions and translation features (with advanced real-time speech-to-speech and translated caption options often tied to enterprise tiers or Microsoft 365 Copilot / Interpreter agents).
• Google Meet: Includes built-in Translated Captions that allow you to change the meeting’s spoken language and translate the text stream live into your preferred target language on both desktop and mobile apps.
• Third-Party AI Add-ons: If your native video tool lacks the exact translation depth you need, standalone AI bot tools like Palabra.ai or browser extensions like LiveLingo can integrate across Zoom, Teams, and Google Meet to provide live multi-language translation.

Which video conferencing tool do you currently use (Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, or another platform )? I can give you the exact step-by-step instructions to turn this feature on.

Yes. If you mean an app that can listen to a video conference, display live captions, and translate those captions into another language, there are several options:

• Zoom Video Communications / Zoom Workplace — has built-in translated captions that translate speech in real time into another caption language. It requires eligible paid plans or a translated-captions add-on. support.zoom.com Zoom translated captions documentation
• Microsoft Teams — offers live captions plus live translated captions and transcripts. Teams Premium or Microsoft 365 Copilot can provide the feature, depending on the setup. support.microsoft.com Microsoft Teams multilingual speech documentation

If you tell me which video conferencing tool you currently use (Zoom, Teams, Webex, Google Meet, etc.) and what languages you need translated, I can narrow it down to the best 2–3 options, including pricing.

Major video conferencing applications provide native live captioning and real-time translation features, though they often require specific paid tiers, add-ons, or workspace settings . In addition, several dedicated third-party apps and AI integration bots can add cross-platform live captions and translations to any video tool.

Native Video Conferencing Apps with Built-In Translation & Captions

1. Microsoft Teams : Provides live captions and real-time translated captions (allowing each user to read subtitles in their preferred language). This feature requires a higher-tier enterprise assignment or the Microsoft Teams Premium add-on.
2. Zoom Workplace : Offers Zoom Translated Captions powered by its AI companion framework across dozens of languages. Participants can toggle and pick their target translation language independently, though it typically requires specific tiers like Business Plus or Enterprise.
3. Google Meet : Features live translated captions on eligible Google Workspace plans, with expanding AI-driven voice and text translation capabilities rolling out.
4. Cisco Webex : Supports Webex Real-Time Translation to deliver live translated captions in over 100 languages for meetings and webinars, depending on the assigned site license.

Third-Party & Independent Translation Apps (Works Across Platforms)

If your current video tool lacks native translation or you are on a free tier, independent overlay and browser companion apps can capture audio and supply real-time multilingual subtitles:

• Wordly : An AI-powered platform providing simultaneous live audio translation and live captions that integrates directly with Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, and Webex.
• Interprefy : Offers virtual AI agents and human interpreter setups that can inject live captions and speech translation into standard video platforms like Google Meet and Teams.
• JotMe : A desktop application that provides context-aware live caption translation for online meetings across multiple major platforms without requiring admin licenses.
• Localingo : A browser-based companion that runs alongside Zoom, Teams, Meet, or Webex to generate real-time captions and searchable meeting transcripts in your chosen language.

If you can share which specific video conferencing tool your team uses and your current subscription tier , I can let you know whether you already have access to native translation or if a third-party app is needed.

Several video conferencing platforms and companion apps offer live captioning plus translation. The best choice depends on which conferencing tool you already use:

A few practical recommendations:

• If your organization already uses Microsoft 365: Teams is usually the simplest because captions and translation are integrated.
• If you use Zoom: check whether your plan includes translated captions or whether you need the add-on.
• If you need one tool that works across multiple meeting platforms: a third-party overlay such as SonicMeet or similar services may be useful.
• For accessibility needs requiring very high accuracy: consider human CART captioning services rather than relying only on AI captions.

If you tell me which video conferencing tool you use (Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, Webex, etc.) and the languages you need translated, I can narrow it down.

Several third-party applications and native platforms provide real-time live captioning and translation that integrate directly with major video conferencing tools like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet.

Dedicated Third-Party Integration Apps

• Wordly : An AI-powered platform providing real-time live translation and captions that integrates directly with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, and Webex.
• Interprefy : Offers enterprise-grade AI speech translation and multilingual live captions/subtitles that join video meetings as a virtual participant or via browser/mobile links.
• Ava : Provides live captions and translation supporting 50+ languages with specialized integrations (Ava Connect) for Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams.
• SyncWords : Delivers live AI captions and translated subtitles tailored for virtual and hybrid meetings across common streaming and conferencing setups.

• Zoom : Supports built-in live translated captions and native interpretation settings for Business Plus and higher enterprise tiers.
• Google Meet : Provides extensive live captioning and translation coverage natively within Google Workspace tiers.

If you can share which specific video conferencing tool your team uses (Zoom, Teams, or Meet) and which languages you need to translate between, I can give you the exact setup steps or pricing tier required.

Yes. If you mean an app that adds live captions and translates the spoken conversation in real time, several major video-conferencing platforms offer this natively:

• Microsoft Teams — offers live captions plus live translated captions. Teams Premium or Microsoft 365 Copilot can enable the translation features; Microsoft says supported multilingual speech recognition includes English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.
• Zoom Video Communications Zoom — provides automated live transcription and translated captions, with a Live Translation add-on; Zoom also now offers a voice translator that can speak the translated output aloud.

If you're already using Zoom, you may not need a separate app—the translation can be added within Zoom. If you're using Teams, its built-in translated captions are particularly well integrated.

If you tell me which video conferencing tool you currently use (Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, Webex, etc.), I can identify the best compatible caption/translation app and its cost.

Several major video conferencing apps offer built-in live captioning and automated real-time translation, eliminating the need for external tools.

• Zoom Workplace offers AI-powered translated captions that can convert spoken words into on-screen text in dozens of different languages. Participants can independently select their preferred language under the caption settings.
• Microsoft Teams provides live translated captions (available via qualifying enterprise or add-on tiers like Teams Premium) that allow users to view captions translated into their preferred language in real time.
• Google Meet includes live translated captions through its automated AI settings, letting users switch the target language directly from the in-call caption menu.
• Cisco Webex supports closed captioning and real-time translation add-ons that transcribe spoken audio into numerous languages.

If you can share which specific video conferencing tool your team is currently using, I can give you the exact steps to enable these features.
