LiveTranslate is a browser-based, no-installation real-time AI voice translation product, core using Google Gemini real-time voice model, to achieve "speak and translate" speech-to-speech simultaneous interpretation, rather than the traditional translation app's "you finish speaking, then I translate" alternating mode. It can automatically detect the source language (supporting 78 languages, and can continuously recognize even if the language changes during the process) and translate into natural and fluent target language speech while the speaker is speaking, while preserving the original speaker's tone, rhythm, and pitch, with speed changing along with the speaker's emotions, providing an experience close to that of a human interpreter. The product also provides parallel real-time subtitles (original text on the left, translation on the right) and automatic text records. Its biggest innovation is "listeners scan and listen": after creating a Live Session, a QR code is generated, and listeners can scan it with any browser, select their language, and listen with their own phone, without installing an app or registering, supporting up to 150 listeners. Background-wise, it was launched by Newkline Co., Ltd., and also has a same-name iOS app (with free quotas and subscription plans). In terms of positioning, it directly targets professional human interpreters (typically 150–300 dollars per hour per language, requiring weeks in advance, renting simultaneous translation booths and headsets), while LiveTranslate charges by the hour, starting at 19 dollars for one hour with unlimited languages and listeners, and large packages can go as low as around 10 dollars per hour, with no auto-renewal. Overall, it positions itself as a "real-time multilingual communication infrastructure accessible to everyone," significantly reducing the cost and technical barriers of cross-language meetings, events, and daily communication.
