Frequently Asked Questions

How does real time transcription and translation work?

You connect your live audio or video source to Smartcat, select your languages, and our AI instantly generates a written transcript. This transcript is then translated into your chosen target languages in real time, with options for live review by your team or our marketplace experts.

How is this different from tools like google translate real time transcription?

Unlike consumer-grade tools, Smartcat is a Global Content AI Platform built for business. We provide enterprise-level security, higher accuracy through custom glossaries and reviewer workflows, and seamless integration into your content strategy, which are critical for professional marketing and L&D content.

Can the AI handle technical jargon or specific accents?

Yes. You can upload glossaries with specific terminology to guide the AI. The system also learns from any corrections made by reviewers, continually improving its accuracy for your specific use case, including various accents and industry terms.

What is tracking transcription-translation coupling in real time?

This refers to our system’s ability to precisely align the translated text with the original spoken words as they happen. Tracking transcription-translation coupling in real time ensures that subtitles or translated audio tracks are perfectly synchronized, providing a natural experience for your global audience.

What kind of events is this service for?

Our platform is ideal for the needs of Marketing and L&D teams. Common use cases include global town halls, marketing webinars, live product demos, customer support calls, and multilingual online training sessions.

How many languages are supported for transcription and translation real time?

Smartcat supports over 280 languages for translation. You can stream your event with live transcription and translation into multiple languages simultaneously to reach a truly global audience.

How secure is the platform for live events?

We prioritize your data security. Smartcat is SOC 2 Type II compliant and uses end-to-end encryption to ensure your confidential meetings and proprietary content remain protected throughout the entire process.

Is this used for scientific research like the translation and folding of single proteins in real time?

While the core technology is powerful, our platform is specifically optimized for business communication, not complex biological modeling like the translation and folding of single proteins in real time. Our focus is on translating human language for marketing and L&D, ensuring clear communication in global business settings.

Can I edit the final transcript and translations?

Absolutely. After your event, the full transcript and all translations are available in the Smartcat Editor. You can make final edits, export the content in various formats, or use it to create other materials like summaries or blog posts.
