The problem
Two people who do not share a language need to talk naturally. Every step (speech recognition, translation, voice output) adds delay, and delay kills conversation.
The approach
- Built the calling layer on real-time audio infrastructure.
- Streamed speech recognition and translation to keep latency low.
- Designed the chat and call UI so users always know what was said and what was translated.
Technology
The result
- [RESULT: add a verified outcome, e.g. supported language pairs or median translation latency]
