Simultaneous interpretation, without the booth
Every listener hears the meeting in their own language, at the same time — the job simultaneous interpreters do from a booth, done by AI in the browser, in every room your team meets in.
23 languages · sub-second latency · no equipment, no booking, no per-day rates
What simultaneous interpretation takes today
Professional simultaneous interpreting is a serious craft — and a serious production. Interpreters work in pairs per language and swap every half hour, because the cognitive load is brutal. Add the booth or interpreting console, receivers for the room or a remote platform, and the booking lead time, and live interpretation becomes something you schedule weeks ahead and budget per day — reserved for the events that justify it.
Interpreters per language pair — the industry standard for simultaneous work, swapping every ~30 minutes
Typical booking lead time for qualified conference interpreters, longer for rare language pairs

How AI simultaneous interpretation works
The same job — everyone listens in their own language, live — done as remote simultaneous interpretation: a translation pipeline in the browser instead of a booth.
Join in the browser
One meeting link, no install, no receivers. Works for a 4-person call or a 1,500-seat webinar.
Each listener picks a language
23 languages, chosen per listener — not one channel per booth you happened to book.
Speech is recognized as it's spoken
Recognition starts in the speaker's browser, so the pipeline begins before the sentence ends.
One translated stream per language
The room's languages each get a live stream — three languages in the room means three streams, not thirty.
Everyone hears their own language
Each listener gets translated audio in their language, sub-second, simultaneously — while chat, notes, and documents translate alongside.
Interpretation for the meetings that repeat
Booths made interpretation a one-day luxury. When it's a feature of the room, it covers the meetings that happen every week — and the history they leave behind.
Multilingual team meetings
The weekly sync where Berlin, São Paulo, and Tokyo each speak their own language — and read its history in it afterwards.
Town halls & all-hands
Leadership speaks naturally; every region hears it natively. Recording and multilingual transcript included.
Large sessions, up to 1,500 seats
When a session is big, the same room scales — each listener picks their own language, no receiver rental desk at the door.
The room after the call
Interpretation doesn't end when the audio stops: the meeting persists as a channel, and its recap, chat, and notes stay readable in every member's language.
AI vs. the booth — honestly
Two different tools. Here's where each one wins.
| Human simultaneous interpreters | InterMIND AI interpretation | |
|---|---|---|
| Cost structure | Per interpreter, per language, per day — two interpreters per booth, plus equipment or platform fees | A subscription. Interpretation is a feature of the meeting, not a line item per event |
| Lead time | Booked days to weeks ahead; longer for rare language pairs | None — open the meeting link and pick a language |
| Languages per event | One booth and one interpreter pair per language you add | 23 languages available in every meeting; each listener picks their own |
| Certified, high-stakes settings | The gold standard — courts, treaties, depositions, anywhere the interpretation is the record | Not the tool for that bar — we say so openly. AI covers the meetings below it |
| Nuance, idiom, culture | Trained human judgment — still the benchmark for rhetoric and diplomacy | Strong and measured: quality is published per language pair, monthly, on real traffic |
| Beyond the spoken word | Voice only — the chat, notes, and documents stay in the source language | Chat, shared notes, and documents translate alongside the audio, per viewer |
When you should still hire human interpreters
We build AI interpretation and we'll be straight with you: court proceedings, treaty negotiations, certified depositions, and the kinds of summits where a mistranslated clause is a headline — those still belong to accredited human interpreters, and the original-language audio remains the record. What AI changes is everything below that bar: the working meetings, conferences, and webinars that never got interpretation at all, because booths and per-day rates made it an event-day luxury.
