Live Event Translation — built for real budgets

Every word, every language, in real time

Live captions delivered to your audience's phones within seconds of each phrase — in the languages they select. Plus AI key takeaways every 2 minutes while the session runs. No apps, no interpreters, no surprise quotes.

Need English-only captions on phones for deaf or hard-of-hearing attendees? Stack Translate can do that too — or use Showstack Captions for a dedicated captions service that also includes on-screen display.

Live transcription

Speech is captured and transcribed as the presenter speaks — no manual input and no dedicated interpreter required.

Audience chooses the language

Book as many concurrent languages as you need from our catalog of 36 (English source included). Attendees pick their language on their phone when the show goes live — no app download.

One scan to join

Share a per-room QR code or link from your dashboard. Attendees choose a language and start reading within seconds on any device.

Built for live events

Handles noisy venues, shaky conference Wi-Fi, and late starts. Auto-reconnects without losing the thread.

No logins for the room

Organizers sign in to manage events. Your technician gets a private link and your audience scans a QR code — no accounts or passwords in the room.

Simple pricing

From £5 + VAT per hour per language. Or £60/hour with all 36 languages included. Minimum 4 hours per room.

Key takeaways, in your language — included

While the stream runs, StackTranslate summarises the session into 3–5 bullet points every ~2 minutes, translated for viewers in active languages. Included at no extra charge.

Simple pricing — no monthly subscriptions

Choose the model that fits when you create an event: pay per language for smaller meetings, or a flat hourly rate for conferences (all languages included, priced by concurrent listeners). Minimum 4 hours per room (total live time for the event, not per day). Catalogue of 36 languages (35 targets + English source). Sign in to build an exact quote.

How it works

1

Create event & rooms

Sign in, name your event, and set total live hours and languages per room for the whole event — not per day. Download audience QR codes and tech links from your dashboard.

2

Go live

Your technician opens the private link on a laptop, captures audio from the presenter, and starts broadcasting.

3

Audience follows

Attendees scan the room QR code, pick their language, and read along as captions arrive — typically within a few seconds of each spoken phrase.
