Understand the meeting, whatever language it is in.
Open the call in a browser tab and pick that tab as the source. The other participants are spoken in your language in a natural voice a few seconds later, with the text of both sides on screen. Nothing joins the call, and nobody has to change how they speak.

For the calls you would otherwise nod through
A client, a partner or a team that speaks a language you only half follow.
A call in a language you only half follow
You catch the gist, miss the numbers and agree to things you are not sure you heard right.
Now: You hear every sentence in your own language, a few seconds behind, and can read it too.
No interpreter for a 30-minute call
Booking a human interpreter for a quick sync takes days and costs more than the call is worth.
Now: Open the tab, press Start, and the interpreter is there for as long as the call lasts.
Subtitles pull your eyes off the faces
Reading captions while you watch people's reactions means missing one or the other.
Now: The translation is spoken, so you keep looking at the people. The text is there when you need to check a word.
Set up in the minute before the call
No plugin, no bot, no invitation to send.
Open the call in the browser
Join Google Meet, Zoom or Teams in a Chrome or Edge tab rather than in the desktop app.
Pick that tab as the source
In Speecho choose Browser tab, press Start and select the call's tab with its audio shared.
Listen in your language
The call's own sound drops to a quiet level under the translation. Move the slider to taste.
The other side, in your language
Their words appear first. The spoken translation follows a few seconds later.
What works with what
Anything that runs in a Chrome or Edge tab. Desktop apps do not share their sound with a browser.
Google Meet
Works as it is: Meet always runs in the browser.
Zoom
Works when you join from the browser. The desktop app's sound cannot be picked up from a tab.
Microsoft Teams
Works in Teams on the web. The desktop app's sound cannot be picked up.
Other web calls
Webex, Whereby and any other call that runs in a browser tab work the same way.
Good to know
- It works one way: you hear the other side translated, they do not hear you translated.
- Only you hear the translation. The other participants hear the call as usual.
- Tab audio works in Chrome and Edge on a computer. Desktop call apps are not supported.
- The translation runs a few seconds behind the speaker.
- When people talk over each other, the translation gets harder to follow.

Live interpreter for meetings: questions
Does a bot join the call?
No. Nothing joins the call. Speecho listens to the browser tab you picked, on your own computer, and the other participants see nothing new.
Do the other participants hear the translation?
No, only you do. To give a group the translation, switch on the listen link and share it: each person then listens on their own device.
Can the others hear me translated?
Not in this mode. The interpreter translates the sound of the tab you picked, which is the other side of the call. Your own microphone is not part of it.
Which browsers work?
Chrome and Edge on a computer, because they are the ones that share a tab's sound. On a phone you can still use the microphone mode.
Is the call saved?
When you stop, the original and the translated text are saved to your history like any transcript. The audio is not stored unless you turn on Keep audio, and then only the recording of the original: the translated voice is never stored.
How is it billed?
By the second from your pay-as-you-go balance, only while the session runs. The app shows how long your balance lasts before you start.
Your next call, in your language.
Open it in a browser tab and let the interpreter do the listening.
