TransyncAI (simultaneous translation): a tool that provides real-time translation and speech-to-text summaries of meetings

TransyncAI, Chinese name "同言翻译", is a software tool that utilizes artificial intelligence technology to provide real-time translation and meeting minutes services. It mainly solves the language barrier problems encountered in cross-border meetings, business communications or international exchanges. The tool uses end-to-end speech grand modeling technology, which can translate speech into the target language nearly without delay and display it in the form of a bilingual split screen. It not only supports speech recognition and text translation, but also has the function of playing out the translated content in a voice that simulates a real person, like an on-the-go translator. In addition, after the meeting is over, the software can automatically generate meeting minutes containing key summaries, which is convenient for users to review and organize. TransyncAI is designed as a stand-alone application without plug-ins, and can be used directly on all kinds of mainstream meeting software (e.g. Zoom, Teams, Google Meet) and multiple operating systems (including Windows, Mac, iOS, Android), which is suitable for foreign trade, cross-country collaboration, study abroad and other scenarios that require cross-language communication.

application scenario

1. International business meetings
   TransyncAI can act as a "simultaneous interpreter" for online meetings with teams from different countries, translating all participants' speeches in real time and ensuring accurate delivery of information through bilingual subtitles and voice announcements, as well as automatically generating minutes after the meeting for easy follow-up.
2. Foreign trade industry communication
   Foreign trade practitioners need to frequently communicate with overseas customers via phone or video. With TransyncAI, you can translate the other party's language in real time during the call, accurately understand the customer's needs and clearly express your own meaning, so as to improve the communication efficiency and turnover rate.
3. Offline transnational exchanges
   Use the mobile version of TransyncAI for face-to-face communication when attending international exhibitions, hosting foreign clients or traveling across the border. Whether it's a business negotiation, ordering food at a restaurant or asking for directions, it provides instant translation and breaks down language barriers.
4. Programs of Study for International Students
   International students may have difficulty listening to lectures in an entirely foreign language. TransyncAI translates the teacher's lectures into its own native subtitles in real time, helping students to better understand the course knowledge, as well as assisting with class presentations and group discussions.

QA

1. Does TransyncAI need to be installed in a Zoom or Teams plugin?
   No. TransyncAI is a standalone application that translates by listening to your computer's audio inputs and outputs, so there is no need to install a plug-in in any conferencing software for compatibility.
2. When using TransyncAI, do others in the meeting need to install it?
   No need. All it takes is for one of you to run TransyncAI on your own device and it will translate what everyone in the meeting is saying. You can also share your screen so that others can see the subtitles translated in real time.
3. How accurate are TransyncAI's translations?
   The tool uses advanced AI big model technology and learning optimized for specialized vocabulary, resulting in higher translation accuracy in business and specific domains. Of course, as with all AI translations, accuracy may fluctuate for complex sentences or slang.
4. Is the software free? How is it charged?
   TransyncAI offers a certain number of free trial hours to newly registered users. After the free hours are used up, the service needs to be purchased according to the pricing plan published on the official website, usually on an hourly or subscription basis.
5. Will using it in a noisy environment affect the translation?
   Will. As with all speech recognition tools, background noise interferes with the microphone's ability to pick up speech, thus affecting the accuracy of recognition and translation. For best results, it is recommended that you use it in a relatively quiet environment or use a microphone with good noise reduction.
