Broadcast Mode allows a single speaker or panel to deliver live, translated speech to a multilingual audience via captions, voiceover, or both. It is ideal for public information sessions, corporate announcements, live training events, or webinars where attendees need to follow in their own language — without participating directly.

This mode supports high-scale, one-to-many delivery, and allows each audience member to choose their preferred language from a dropdown or pre-set configuration. Q&A, polling, and live chat can also be supported with optional multilingual input and moderation.

🔧 What You Need

  • A presenter device with mic (laptop, headset, or AV setup)
  • Stable internet connection for both host and audience
  • A browser or embed-ready video platform
  • Admin access to set up and manage broadcast sessions

📡 How It Works

As the presenter speaks, their audio is captured, transcribed, translated, and delivered to viewers in real time. Viewers can receive this as:

  • Live captions in their preferred language
  • Neural voice playback, simulating simultaneous interpretation

Audience members do not need to speak — they simply select their language and follow the stream. Hosts can monitor engagement, control the timing of Q&A, and review multilingual transcripts after the session.
