Wish for real-time translation during an international meeting
Real-time translation is available in Teams and Zoom Webinar for several language pairs, with variable quality. For business nuance a human interpreter is still sometimes better, but for stand-ups or brainstorming AI often suffices.
Try this first
- 1Decide which language pairs you need, not all pairs are available on every platform.
- 2For Microsoft Teams Premium, live translation covers several languages, check the current list before exposing it.
- 3For Zoom, live translation is a separate feature in the higher licences.
- 4Test quality with a conversation representative of your work, jargon often breaks in translation.
- 5For a formal client meeting, hire a human interpreter, AI is not a substitute when legal precision is needed.
- 6Document in the room guide when translation is enabled and what licences it needs.
